Ayanna is advocating and legislating to make bold progress on issues of consequence for all of our communities — work that wouldn’t be possible without your support.
Your support is so powerful in fueling our movement for transformative justice and equity for all people. As we get closer to the end of the month (and our end-of-month fundraising deadline), we thought this would be a perfect time to share what we’ve accomplished together — and what you’re funding when you make a contribution to Ayanna’s campaign.
This is a long email, so, if you’re short on time, you can make your first $3 contribution right now.
Here’s what Ayanna has been up to this month:
- Canceling student loan debt: Ayanna is leading the fight for student debt cancellation, urging President Joe Biden to use executive action to cancel $50,000 in federal student loan debt. The growing student debt crisis has exacerbated deeply entrenched racial and economic inequities. Student loan debt cancellation would have a transformative impact on Black and brown communities and would be a critical step toward a just, equitable economic recovery.
- Removing lead from public and subsidized housing: More than 90,000 children living in public housing have lead poisoning. That’s why Ayanna introduced legislation — in partnership with Rep. Jesús “Chuy” García — to help ensure that public housing in the Massachusetts 7th, and nationwide, is safe, healthy, and lead pipe-free, addressing the injustices that have disproportionately exposed Black, brown, and low-income communities to worse health outcomes.
- Supporting pregnant people during the COVID-19 pandemic: Last week, Ayanna introduced the COVID-19 Safe Birthing Act — bold legislation to advance maternal health justice by addressing the harmful impact of the pandemic on pregnant people, particularly pregnant people of color.
- Securing COBRA subsidies for striking workers: Together with Reps. Joe Courtney, James McGovern, and Katherine Clark, Ayanna stood in solidarity with workers to secure COBRA subsidies under the American Rescue Plan, ensuring that workers are able to exercise their right to organize and engage in collective bargaining. Under new guidance, striking workers can receive the subsidies they need to keep their health care coverage during the pandemic.
Ayanna is advocating and legislating to make bold progress on issues of consequence for all of our communities — work that wouldn’t be possible without your support. But right now, we’re behind on where we need to be to reach our goal on April 30th.
If you can, your $3 contribution would go a long way in helping us meet our $30,000 April fundraising goal to keep Ayanna working for all of us in Congress. Ayanna doesn’t spend a minute doing call time or take a cent from corporate PACs, so every contribution makes a big impact
