Dear friend,

Our country would not be so prosperous or our culture so vibrant without the contributions of immigrants. Yvette knows this, which is why she has dedicated herself to improving America’s immigration policy and the lives of our immigrant friends and neighbors.

Born in Jamaica, I came to the United States seeking higher education and the opportunities that came with it. And I also wanted to make a difference in my new home.

Since then, I’ve been able to build my own American dream and as a New York City Council Member in Brooklyn, using my role as a public servant to advocate for housing reform, improved education, and increased resources for immigrants.

That’s why I’m so proud of Yvette for carrying on my legacy and honoring her heritage as a daughter of an immigrant. During her time in Congress so far, she has:

Boldly led the charge to protect DACA recipients and those affected by deferred enforced departure
Introduced the ASPIRE Act, a bipartisan solution that would provide relief to all temporary protected status eligible individuals
Worked to protect individuals in ICE detention centers against abuses of power by co-sponsoring the ICE and CBP Body Camera Accountability Act

These are just a few of the ways Yvette has committed herself to improving the lives of immigrants in our country. Due to her robust legislative experience and personal connection to the issue, I know she’ll continue to do great work for our district and for our country.

But she can't fight the good fight without your help, friend. If you stand with Yvette's work on immigration, will you chip in to her re-election campaign today?

Every dollar makes a difference in this movement. Thank you.
