Friend,

Tomorrow night, Donald Trump will give the State of the Union in front of
Congress and the nation.

Without even watching, we know that Trump will not say anything that is
actually in touch with the needs of working families. He and his
billionaire bro, Elon Musk, have proven over the last six weeks that all
they care about is enriching corporations and destroying every program
meant to support the 60% of Americans living paycheck-to-paycheck.(1)

Instead of listening to Trump’s hateful drivel, we are excited to share
that Courage California-endorsed Congresswoman Lateefah Simon (CA-12) will
be giving the Working Families Party State of the Union!

Rep. Simon truly understands the state of the nation and what the average
American is facing.

A working mom who has struggled with medical debt, she knows the danger
that Trump’s attacks on Medicare and Medicaid are posing to our well
being. She is a longstanding social justice activist and nonprofit leader
who created an anti-recividism initiative in San Francisco called Back on
Track and also fought for affordable public transportation on the BART
board of directors.

Now Rep. Simon is fighting for us in Congress! In just her first term as a
representative, Rep. Simon is a Deputy Whip for Policy and Vice Chair of
the Progressive Caucus, working to lower costs of health care and lessen
the homelessness epidemic.

These are the issues our leaders need to spotlight, and we are so excited
to see our own rockstar California representative take center stage
tomorrow night!
