Hey team,

Sometimes it feels like all the news out of Washington, D.C. is negative. And that’s understandable — especially right now, barely a week after the Supreme Court ripped away basic rights and opportunity from so many Americans.

But I didn’t run for Congress on a platform of just saying no to bad GOP policies — I campaigned on getting things done to help regular families. And I want you to know that even as we fight back against right-wing extremism, I’m also working hard to deliver progress however I can.

And though this work often doesn’t make front-page news or trend on Twitter, it really does matter, so I wanted to share a few updates with you. Here are a few of the things I’ve been working on the last few weeks:

*
I’ve
introduced
several
bipartisan
bills
to
respond
to
our
nation’s
opioid
epidemic
—
to
improve
recovery
support
for
people
struggling
with
substance
use
disorder,
to
prevent
both
the
financing
and
the
importation
of
illicit
synthetic
drugs
like
fentanyl,
and
to
include
naloxone
in
airplane
emergency
medical
kits
to
reduce
fatal
overdoses.
*
I
worked
with
colleagues
on
both
sides
of
the
aisle
to
propose
a
bill
tackling
our
nationwide
affordable
housing
crisis.
*
I
proposed
a
tax
credit
to
help
families
and
small
businesses
recover
from
natural
disasters.
*
I
sponsored
a
measure
to
hold
bank
executives
accountable
by
restricting
bonus
payments
for
leaders
of
any
large
bank
that
does
not
resolve
serious
regulatory
concerns
in
a
timely
manner.

Team, I’m never going to be the kind of elected official who spends all their time commenting on the news cycle — because I’m too busy actually trying to get things done. If that’s the kind of approach you’d like to see more of in Congress, I’d be honored if you would pitch in a few dollars to my re-election campaign → [[link removed]]
