John, yesterday I spoke on behalf of the Congressional Progressive Caucus on the House floor and stood up for working families. |
John, I want to dive right in – this is a personal fight because I've seen the consequences of under-investing in our communities.
Throughout my life, I've seen people struggling with homelessness also struggle with food insecurity. That's why I understand the life-saving value of programs like SNAP.
I've seen my father struggle to afford his healthcare costs. That's why I fight so hard to expand programs like Medicaid, not cut them.
As they've gotten older, I've seen both of my parents – who have worked so hard and sacrificed so much – struggle to pay their bills. And that's why I'm taking steps to protect programs like Social Security.
And the terrifying reality is that if we let these extremist Republicans have their way, the situation for millions of Americans will only get worse.

Whether it's speaking on the House floor or organizing my community, I've never backed away from a fight. |
Thank you, Congresswoman Delia Ramirez |
