John — It was a genuine honor this past weekend to be sworn in for another term as a member of the House of Representatives. Much has happened since then, but I will never stop standing up for you and the people of Pennsylvania.

Understandably, this news has fallen under the radar the past few days. But we did have a few important policy victories at the end of the last Congress:

My Streamlining Energy Efficiency for Schools Act was officially enacted. This legislation will help protect our environment by improving energy efficiency, will help students learn and improve test scores by providing better learning conditions, while also saving our schools much-needed money by updating their inefficient heating, cooling and ventilation systems.
We allocated $730 million to expand broadband internet in rural America. The COVID-19 pandemic has made it clearer than ever that every American needs fast, reliable internet access to tap into our modern economy.
We passed the No Surprises Act, which will end surprise health care billing for patients. This means that patients will only be responsible for their usual in-network cost-sharing amounts and deductibles.

While I am proud of these accomplishments, John, I know there is still so much left to do.

For example, we passed a compromise COVID-19 relief passage that President Trump signed into law, but Mitch McConnell killed a House bill that would have increased the stimulus checks to $2,000. With a Democratic Senate and a President Joe Biden, I’m optimistic we’ll be able to pass more relief.

We need to make this next term of Congress one that is truly focused on the people — not partisan politics. That’s what I pledge to do. Will you join this mission with me by pitching in a $15 or $20 donation today? Every dollar helps us expand our movement and push for policies that help working Americans.

Thank you for your support, and onward!
