John,

There's still over 10 months left until the end of Jamaal's first term in Congress, but he's already introduced and advanced 21 pieces of legislation and cosponsored over 500 bills.

We want to share a few of the key pieces of legislation that Jamaal's been involved with in his first year alone, but before we do, we want to ask if you'd please be able to make a donation to our campaign.

Our first re-election is happening this year, and not only is the primary just four months away — Jamaal is also facing two challenges from the establishment, with possibly more to come.

With newly drawn district lines, a new base of voters to reach out to, and a competitive primary ahead, we could use your support now to make sure we have everything we need in the coming months to send Jamaal back to Congress. Please chip in $3 or whatever you're able today.

Here are some highlights of Jamaal's legislative record thus far:

• On his fourth day in office — three days after the Capitol insurrection — Jamaal introduced the Congressional Oversight Unjust Policing (COUP) Act. It was his first piece of legislation in Congress and perfectly showcased his ability to create policies that meet the scale and scope of the crises we face. It also had an immediate impact; the next month, Speaker Pelosi announced that Congress will move to establish an independent commission to investigate the attack on the Capitol.
• In July, he introduced the Green New Deal for Public Schools — which aims to invest $1.43 trillion over 10 years in public schools and infrastructure to combat climate change. The legislation is one of the most transformative and unprecedented investments in public school infrastructure.
• In December, he introduced the African American History Act, a bill that would fund educational resources for Black history by funding educational programming through the National Museum of African American History and Culture. Prior to introduction, the bill already received 50 co-sponsorships — and has since been introduced in the Senate by Cory Booker.

And aside from introducing legislation, Jamaal was proud to support legislation that directly benefited the district, as well:

• Through the American Rescue Plan, $531.4 million total went to New York's 16th District. With this funding, local and county governments were able to provide essential services, reopen schools and businesses, and limit the spread of COVID-19.
• Jamaal also collaborated with local governments to open four vaccine sites in the district within the first 100 days of office, ensuring that NY-16 had shots in arms available as soon as possible after being hit hardest by the pandemic.
• Due to Jamaal's staunch support of Build Back Better, over $185 million in child tax credit tax cuts were given to over 84,000 families in the district. 75% of children in NY-16 were impacted by this — and the average benefit for NY-16 households was $2,800.

John, we're proud to have a leader like Jamaal in Congress fighting for us. All this work so far has been possible due to your continued support, and the great work to come will only happen with your support, too. Please, chip in $3 to our campaign today and let's work to keep Jamaal and his bold, progressive legislating in Congress.
