We wrote to you earlier this week about the race to replace Jahana and flip this seat red. There’s no doubt this will be a close election – CT-05 is almost a perfect 50/50 split between Democrats and Republicans.

John,

We wrote to you earlier this week about the race to replace Jahana and flip this seat red. There’s no doubt this will be a close election – CT-05 is almost a perfect 50/50 split between Democrats and Republicans.

Help Jahana protect this seat!
 

Thankfully, the daily grind of the campaign is not stopping Jahana’s critical work in Washington for our community. Here’s what she has been up to in February:

  • With Medicare, Medicaid, and the Affordable Care Act under attack, Jahana spoke out to protect our care. While Republicans are busy trying to take away health care and make coverage less affordable, Jahana has been doing the opposite. She fought to lower drug prices and hold pharmaceutical companies accountable, championed an amendment to bring $25 million to state health care exchanges like Access Health CT, and defended Connecticut residents with pre-existing conditions from attacks on their health care by voting to pass the Protecting Americans with Pre-Existing Conditions Act.
     
  • Jahana helped pass critical legislation through the House, including the PRO Act to strengthen collective bargaining rights. She led an amendment to the Protecting the Right to Organize (PRO) Act to defend new, voluntarily recognized unions from rushed decertification attacks in their first year of formation.
     
  • Jahana recognizes the importance of taking care of our environment. She voted to designate the lower Farmington River and Salmon Brook as “Wild and Scenic,” making the area annually eligible for $100,000 for conservation efforts and introduced legislation to continue funding for the Upper Housatonic Valley National Heritage Area for another 15 years.
     
  • Jahana defended the health of our children by introducing the Clean School Bus Act, to provide federal funding for school districts to replace their diesel buses with electric ones.

The campaign is heating up, but the work does not stop. Make a contribution today to ensure Jahana can continue to bring our voices to Washington and get this important work done →
