This is the horrifying “woke” agenda that Republicans are trying so hard to block.
Yesterday, Alexandria slammed House Republicans in a hearing where the main topic of complaint was that the federal government is “too woke.”
While they gave no definition of what “woke” is, the so-called “woke” policies on paper that were being criticized in this hearing included:
- Remote work for federal workers including those who are disabled
- Paying interns so that opportunities don’t just go to privileged kids whose parents can afford to pay their rent
- Creating career opportunities for partners of military service members
- Protections for firefighters so they don’t leave the job
- Diversity and inclusion efforts so that our federal workforce looks like the people who live in this country
This is the horrifying “woke” agenda that Republicans are trying so hard to block.
Alexandria is one of our best defenses in Congress to hold Republicans accountable for stunts like this.
It’s why we need her in Congress to call out their antics. When Alexandria and our movement is strong (including our fundraising), we have the best chance to counter their moves and win.
If you can, please pitch in $3 or any amount today so that we can hold Republicans accountable and deliver real progress for working people.
Thank you for being such a crucial part of this movement.
