[ [link removed] ]Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez for Congress




With summer coming to a close, I wanted to take a moment to say thank you.
August was a fantastic month for NY-14 and our movement across the
country, and that’s in no small part thanks to dedicated volunteers and
supporters like you.



🎒 We distributed 500+ backpacks to kids across The Bronx and Queens
alongside our community partners to help families get ready for
back-to-school.

✉️ Alexandria [ [link removed] ]rallied at the American Postal Workers National
Convention, celebrating all the successes we’ve had in Congress this year
to make the USPS stronger and better funded — including a pilot program
for postal banking! 

👨‍👩‍👦 As Alexandria continues to fight in Congress for paid federal leave
and better support for childcare, our team hosted a [ [link removed] ]virtual workshop on
organizing childcare collectives to help give parents solutions now.

💰 We finally saw progress with student loan debt relief, and [ [link removed] ]continued
to push for cancellations of higher debt amounts.

💸 [ [link removed] ]Alexandria voted for the Inflation Reduction Act, which will reduce
carbon emissions by 40 percent, allow Medicare to negotiate for lower drug
prices, increase taxes on the wealthiest, and much more! 

📓 Our team concluded our [ [link removed] ]Homework Helpers summer program with Start
Lighthouse, in which third graders completed a curriculum to build skills
in reading and empathy. 

🗳️ Kristen Gonzalez won her primary for the New York State Senate, despite
being outraised hundreds of thousands of dollars!
