Hi John,
It's nice to meet you. I'm Shelda, Summer's mom.
I wanted to reach out to you on Mother's Day to share why I'm so proud to
be Summer's mom. And for those for whom this holiday is a painful day, my
heart goes out to you. ♥️
As Summer's mom, here's what I know to be true — she will always be vocal
about what's right, even if it means questioning authority.

In high school, she led her fellow ninth graders in a protest against the
Pledge of Allegiance and argued with a substitute teacher about
Christopher Columbus' role in history.
I remember how she moved back in with me after graduating from Howard Law.
She was trying to figure out what came next when a video surfaced showing
officials in her old school district using a stun gun on Black students.
She got up from the couch and led a successful campaign to unseat school
board members who failed to respond.
From there, she never slowed down. Whether it was her election to the
State House or Congress, there have been doubters — not to mention nasty
attacks — but Summer has always stayed true to herself and her progressive
vision for justice.
I'm so proud of my daughter's instinct to always fight for those without
power. It's what makes her a kind, generous, and fierce advocate for PA-12
as our Congresswoman.
Summer's gotten right to work in Congress, delivering on campaign promises
like co-sponsoring the Green New Deal and standing up to white supremacist
super-villains on the Oversight Committee. But if we're going to transform
our political system to deliver for everyday families, we can't stop now.

for folks like us? I know it means so much to her to have this movement
giving their full support.

Happy Mother's Day,
John. All my gratitude,
