Dear Colleague: 
 
I hope you are having a productive District Work Period as you share with your constituents the work we have done on their behalf over the past six months. We have passed the For the People Act to restore Americans’ faith in their government, along with legislation to help prevent gun violence, address climate change, bring down the cost of prescription drugs, ensure equal pay, protect Dreamers, provide equal protections under our laws for all Americans, and fund our government.
