Well, we have started our work in the new Congress, now under Kevin McCarthy's leadership, and I have to tell you... it is not looking good.

The first actions taken by the new Republican majority include:

A radical attack on abortion rights
Slashing customer service staff at the IRS, making it harder for regular folks to get answers
Slashing auditors at the IRS, making it easier for the wealthy and big corporations to dodge paying their fair share of taxes
Gutting the Office of Congressional Ethics, making it much tougher to hold Members of Congress accountable when they break the rules or misbehave
Denying the permanent extension of the child tax credit to reduce poverty

Those are not my priorities, and I know they are not yours.

Even as I am voting "no, no, no" on all the nonsense, here are my priorities and what I'm doing for my neighbors in Northwest Washington and folks across the country:

Staying focused on transportation, including getting answers from the FAA and the airlines about unforeseen delays and canceled flights
Demanding accountability for public services, including the unacceptable delays in mail delivery in our communities
Ensuring that the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law delivers on creating good, family-wage jobs and tackling the climate crisis
Protecting voting rights across the country
Protecting Social Security and Medicare

If that sounds good to you, I hope you will make an early investment in our 2024 campaign to help us build the campaign we are going to need to take back the House. [[link removed]]

It will make a critical difference!
