Friend,

Protecting the good people of Sacramento is the most important part of my job
and hard work is what it takes to deliver transformative change for our working
families.

I am committed to raising the voices of family caregivers and the experiences
of the “sandwich generation”, the many of you caring for both growing children
and aging relatives. For so many of us, we take on the role of caring for the
people we love without any hesitation. But for far too long, we have overlooked
the emotional demands and economic challenges that caregiving responsibilities
put on parents in the workforce.

Especially for women, the pandemic has only turned up the daily pressure to
balance the deeper needs of family with the duties of paid work. For our
multigenerational caregivers, it’s a constant push-pull of dueling priorities -
there’s your job, caring for your parents, and meeting your children’s
educational, extracurricular and emotional needs.

I see you, and the tremendous stress you bear. And while, again and again, you
get the impossible done - I am working to put the support systems and
protections in place that will alleviate challenges facing our sandwich
generation caregivers.

We simply cannot afford to leave our caregivers behind in our economic
recovery and investments in infrastructure. I support President Biden’s Build
Back Better Act because it will deliver help to Sacramentos’ working families
when they need it most. I will work tirelessly to fight for this legislation
that uplifts our community by investing in child care, home and community-based
services, paid leave, and a permanent extension of the Child Tax Credit.

MY JOB is to push for these positive changes we need. Will you pitch in TODAY
to help me continue this important work?

In California, there are over 8,500 people on the waiting list for home care
services. Child care costs went up in every state during the pandemic, and
fewer women are in the workforce without supportive policies like paid family
and medical leave. It is evident that our current patchwork of underfunded
programs is not equipped to handle this ongoing crisis. That’s why I am pushing
for this important legislation that will create more jobs across our region,
cut taxes, and lower costs for families.

Donate to my Re-Election today so I can keep fighting for you!

You are what makes Sacramento so wonderful. Thank you for being a part of my
community.

Stay well and keep healthy,
Doris Matsui
