John,

I've been traveling across PA-06, speaking with our community members, and have had the opportunity to reconnect with familiar faces and have been introduced to new ones as well. I know there are a lot of new folks who just joined our team – so I wanted to introduce myself.

I'm excited to share with you 10 things you might not yet know about me:

1. My father came to the United States as a refugee fleeing war-torn Poland during WWII. A generation later, I am able to serve in Congress. I am here because the United States welcomed refugees and gave me a chance at the American dream.

2. His experience led me to want to serve – I knew that I wanted to give back to my community and the country that has given my family and me so much. So I served in the Air Force and as a Teach for America Teacher. This spirit of service has remained pivotal in my work for the past three years as your representative in Washington.

3. My experiences have helped shape my political vision of ensuring no one is left behind. I am committed to fighting for access to quality, affordable health care and working to build a robust economy for everyone.

4. As a former teacher, I know how difficult and important this critical job is, even in the best of times. That’s why I have and will continue to push for legislation that strengthens our schools, protects the rights of our teachers, and provides the best learning environment for our kids.

5. Our district is home to multiple semiconductor companies. As an entrepreneur, I know that fixing our supply chains was critical. So I helped pass the CHIPS and Science Act, which will bring more manufacturing jobs to Pennsylvania, and will get more goods on our shelves more quickly.

6. I worked with Republicans and Democrats to invest in our infrastructure because it's important that our community has the resources to succeed. As a result, Pennsylvania will receive $18 billion in federal funding to fix our roads, bridges, public transportation, pipes, and broadband.

7. As a mother, I will always advocate for Pennsylvania families. I've led the bipartisan effort to extend paid parental leave for millions of Americans, and I will continue to ensure that all families can have secure, affordable child care and improve childhood literacy.

8. I am pro choice – and I am happy that the House passed the Women's Health Protection Act, and that the Senate introduced the Freedom to Travel for Health Care Act. But I know that the fight is far from over, and I will continue to fight to protect women’s reproductive rights.

9. I've led efforts to lower costs on gas and everyday goods, helping to pass the Inflation Reduction Act. This is a major triumph for both our economy and our environment. I am proud to have voted to reduce health care and utility costs, combat climate change, and strengthen our economy.

10. Lastly, during the 116th Congress, I was honored to have been a recipient of the Abraham Lincoln Leadership for America Award. The U.S. Chamber of Commerce presents this award to TOP Senators and Representatives for supporting legislation that is important to the business community and the free enterprise system.

As a longtime resident of Southeastern Pennsylvania, I am dedicated to solving real problems for the people and communities of Pennsylvania. But as I face the GOP, that is coming after me as its TOP target for defeat, I need your help more than ever. This campaign relies on grassroots supporters like you to help us keep up our momentum. John, please help me win this race by chipping in today.

It's an honor to serve you. Thank you.

There's work to be done,

Chrissy
