John,
When you have to worry about life’s basic essentials, it’s challenging to
see beyond just trying to keep the lights on or putting food on the table
for your kids. Right now, too many people in the United States, one of the
wealthiest countries in the world, are just barely scraping by.
Unlike most members of Congress, Cori knows this struggle firsthand.
That’s why she’s introduced a resolution alongside Congressman Jamaal
Bowman and Congresswoman Rashida Tlaib to recognize utilities like heat,
electricity, and water as human rights.
We have the resources to ensure that no one is ever forced to choose
between electricity or heat during the winter.
We have the resources to ensure that everyone has access to properly
sanitized water. We have the resources to ensure that no one else has to
wait in a strip mall parking lot to use Wi-Fi to finish their homework,
apply for work, or pay their bills.
Now, Cori and her colleagues in Congress are working to ensure we don’t
just have the resources — but we start to use them.
With this resolution, they’re recognizing the necessities of daily life
such as clean water, sanitation, electricity, climate control, public
transportation, and high-speed internet as basic human rights and public
services. Further, establishing that these utilities should not only be
affordable, reliable, and accessible to everyone — but justly sourced and
climate resilient.
It’s simple: none of us should ever have to struggle because we cannot
afford these basic necessities.
In times like these, we need leaders like Cori who will fight for the
things that make a real impact in our daily lives. [ [link removed] ]We can’t risk losing
