John, it’s hard
to believe, but we’ve nearly completed the first 1/4 of 2021. While it’s
going to be important for our team to hit our end-of-quarter fundraising
goal by the end of this month, we also believe it’s important to reflect
back and share the things Katie has accomplished during this first
quarter—all because of your support.

Here are just a few things Katie Porter has gotten done in the past three
months:

* Voted to impeach Donald Trump for the second time to hold him
accountable for the domestic terroism attack on the Capitol on January
6.
* After many people were still being billed for their COVID-19 tests,
Katie followed up on her commitment from the CDC Director last year to
make testing free for everyone by demanding insurers make clear that
they will not charge anyone for tests.
* Joined the Natural Resources Committee and was elected to serve as
Chair of the Subcommittee on Oversight and Investigations to hold
corporations and special interests responsible for the climate crisis
accountable.
* Joined the House Oversight Subcommittee on Government Operations to
get to work on restoring the public’s trust in government.
* Was elected as deputy chair of the Congressional Progressive Caucus
and pushed for no less than $1.9 trillion to support families in the
pandemic rescue package.
* Spoke up loudly on behalf of women who have been forced out of the
workforce this year and fought for policies that will support working
women—especially women of color who have been hit hardest by this jobs
crisis—like paid leave and affordable childcare.
* Continued her work to improve our country’s mental health and
reintroduced legislation that would strengthen the efforts of state
and local governments, nonprofit organizations, and service providers
to tackle behavioral health needs in response to the COVID-19
pandemic.
* Published a bombshell report that exposed the devastating effects of
mergers and acquisitions between Big Pharma companies and showed how
consolidation curbs innovation at the expense of the American people.
* Continued fighting high childcare costs by reintroducing the Family
Savings for Kids and Seniors Act—which more than doubles the amount
that families can set aside pre-tax to pay for preschool, summer day
camp, before or after school programs, and child or adult care.
* Fought for single parents (and their children) to receive the same
benefits that married parents receive by exposing the “single parent
penalty” in the COVID-19 relief package, which places stricter income
limitations on single parents than married parents in qualifying for
the child tax credit.
* Was named “Orange County’s most legislatively productive
representative” by the Orange County Register for introducing several
pandemic-related bills this year.
* Questioned Postmaster General Louis DeJoy again and demanded answers
on why he has slashed USPS service and has treated it like his own
personal business rather than a public service for the American
people.

And John, that’s not even all of
it.
