Putting #PeopleOverPolitics

It’s been a year since President Biden signed the Inflation Reduction Act into law and because of its historic investments in climate action, South Carolina is receiving over $2.6 billion to boost renewable energy and lower energy costs -- creating good-paying jobs while doing it. Those jobs are largely going to low-income communities in red and purple states. Because Bidenomics lifts up everyone -- no matter where you live or who you vote for.

Jim wrote an op-ed about the Biden Administration’s efforts to address the student debt crisis -- despite the Supreme Court’s decision to block their loan forgiveness plan -- by making repayment more affordable, suspending penalties for missed payments, and reforming the Public Service Loan Forgiveness Program.

“That $111 billion [in student loan debt cancellation] will change the lives of more than 3.2 million Americans -- Americans with disabilities, Americans who have been defrauded, those who’ve spent decades paying their loans, teachers, firefighters, veterans, and others who have dedicated a significant portion of their lives to public service.” 

- Congressman Jim Clyburn

From the Headlines

The South Carolina Supreme Court upheld the state legislature’s abortion ban -- yet another attack on reproductive freedom in the wake of Roe v. Wade. Jim and Democrats aren’t giving up. They’re working to restore Roe and protect access to care across the country.

On the Ballot 2024

The next FEC deadline is a little over a week away, and we set a goal to raise $10,000 before midnight on September 30th to ensure we have the resources to re-elect Jim and support other Democrats on the ballot across the country so we can flip the House next year. Will you make a contribution?

In Case You Missed It!

Last month, Jim joined members of the Congressional Black Congress to commemorate the 60th anniversary of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.’s March on Washington. Check it out:
