Dear friend,

Every time I walk into a committee hearing or onto the House floor, I carry the voices of Brooklyn with me: our working families, our immigrant communities, and our local leaders.

When I spoke out this week as the Chair of the Congressional Black Caucus against the White House’s deployment of the National Guard in Los Angeles, I carried your voice, too. The White House responded by twisting my words and attacking me:

And now, this administration has escalated even further. I’m sure you have seen the video of Senator Alex Padilla being tackled and handcuffed for simply asking Kristi Noem a question.If they’re willing to do that on camera to a sitting U.S. Senator, imagine what they’re doing to our neighbors behind closed doors.

We must meet this moment with courage, with clarity, and with collective power. This fight is personal for me: I’m the daughter of Jamaican immigrants, and I’m proud to represent one of the most diverse communities in the country.

You have my word that I will keep fighting to preserve due process and dignity for our immigrant communities, as I always have. I’ve worked across the aisle to introduce the ASPIRE Act to provide relief to all temporary protected status eligible individuals. I’m also a co-sponsor of the ICE and CBP Body Camera Accountability Act which will force agents and officers to wear body cameras when engaged in official operations, in order to reduce instances of mistreatment and abuse.

Your support today helps me keep up this fight: [[link removed]]
