Hi John,

Recently, my roomie and fellow Congresswoman, Summer Lee, and I had an opportunity to have a brutally honest conversation with Teen Vogue about our work in Congress and what it's like to have to worry about rent in one of the most expensive cities in the nation.  

It wasn't easy, but before I tell you more, this issue really highlights how important it is to prioritize affordable and accessible housing. I'm working to do that in Congress, but with November right around the corner, my reelection campaign needs your help. Will you support me with a donation today?

John, it's like Summer Lee said: "We weren't [prepared] for the fact that we've had to leave our jobs. We were going to have to furnish a house…move our stuff in, and we're going to have to pay rent in DC and our hometowns."

I was so glad to have an opportunity with Teen Vogue to give the lack of accessible and affordable housing legislation a platform because this is such a personal issue to me. I grew up in a working-class home and my family lived in subsidized housing above our church until I was about seven years old.

It shouldn't have to be this way, but this kind of housing insecurity is the  reality for lots of folks across our district and across the US. 

That's why I've worked hard to push the needle on housing in our district. In fact, just this year, I secured millions of dollars in crucial funding toward revitalizing vacant buildings and providing more affordable housing.

And while I'd like to continue delivering results for our community, I can't ignore our upcoming election and the GOP opponent working hard to undo all of the work we've done so far. 

John, my team and I are reaching out to ask for your help in ramping up our field efforts. To ensure that my reelection campaign has the resources it needs to succeed, will you chip in any amount you can spare today?

Thank you,

Congresswoman Delia Ramirez
