John — Barbara has wasted no time getting to work in the new term and making history in the House.
Along with her colleagues on the Judiciary Committee, Barbara helped pass H.R. 40 to bring reparations legislation to the House floor. Coming over 30 years after the bill was first introduced, this is a monumental step toward tackling systemic racism through reparations.
Restorative justice can’t wait any longer, and H.R. 40 would establish a commission to study and develop reparation proposals for African-Americans.
That’s not all — Barbara also teamed up with Sen. Bernie Sanders this week on Wall Street tax legislation to rein in corporate greed and tackle wealth inequality, and reintroduced the Green New Deal with Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and Sen. Ed Markey.
John, Barbara has been one of the most trusted progressive voices in Congress for decades. And now that Democrats control both majorities in Congress and the White House, she’s leading the way to get our agenda for working families passed into law.
We need your help to keep Barbara in Congress so we can see even more progress made on racial justice, income equality, environmental justice, and so much else. Will you make a donation to help one of the House’s boldest and most reliable progressive leaders keep up the fight for us all?
