Dear Friend,
We had a good week in Washington, DC as two of my bills were passed by committees and will be heading to the House floor. But before I tell you more about that, I want to invite you to two events.

Dear Friend,
It was another busy week in Washington, DC and here in New York. I’m proud to report we had two big wins in the House of Representatives this week. We sent a disaster relief package to the President’s desk for his signature and we passed the American Dream and Promise Act to finally give Dreamers and Temporary Protected Status (TPS) and Deferred Enforced Departure (DED) holders a real pathway to citizenship. More on this and other updates below.

Dear Friend,
It has been a busy district work week here in NYC. After several weeks of votes in DC, it is great to have time to meet with constituents, receive updates on local projects and hear from community leaders. Here is a wrap up of these meetings and events.

Dear Friend,
First, I would like to wish you and your families a Happy Memorial Day as we honor all those who made the ultimate sacrifice to defend this country.
Second, I would like to announce that that I've been working with Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) and the House Committee on Oversight and Reform to host a hearing on the 2020 Census here in NYC. It will take place this Tuesday, May 28 at 2pm at LaGuardia Community College's The Little Theater. If you can't join us, live stream here.
I also want to give you a run down on what I was up to in Washington, DC this week.

Dear Friend,
We just had a historic moment on the floor of the House. I joined 235 of my colleagues to pass the Equality Act, sweeping new civil rights legislation that will prohibit discrimination against LGBTQ Americans in all walks of life. I have fought for equality for my entire career and this is one of the proudest moments of my career in public service. Below is more information about the Equality Act’s historic reforms.

Dear Friend,
We made history this week in the House of Representatives with the first Congressional hearing on the Equal Rights Amendment in more than three decades. It was an inspiring day and the first step towards passing legislation that will remove the arbitrary deadline that was imposed when the ERA was passed through Congress in 1972.

Dear Friend,
Today, all eyes are on the Department of Justice, Congress, and the redacted Mueller report. Attorney General Barr’s performance this morning for the President underscores the need for Congress to receive the full unredacted report, along with all of its underlying evidence, and that Special Counsel Mueller needs to testify publicly before Congress. The Attorney General is supposed to work for the American people, not put President Trump’s interests first.
