JUSTICE FOR OUR HEROES TODAY: Co-sponsor the bipartisan H.R. 3429, the Repatriate Our Patriots Act, and bring our unjustly deported veterans home!

We are all forever indebted to the brave men and women who served in uniform. Yet when veterans who were legal permanent residents leave the service, after our military failed to properly process their citizenship applications, they are deported. Despite AMVETS,
one of our nation’s largest veteran service organizations, calling it a “stain on our country’s pride,” our government continues to deport honorably discharged veterans. Thousands of veterans who fought for our country are now exiled to countries they know
little to nothing about. It is our responsibility to right this wrong.

Support Bipartisan Bill to Reduce Medicaid Fraud and Protect Patients

We invite you to cosponsor H.R.3891, bipartisan legislation to improve efforts to identify Medicaid fraud and protect those who are served by the program.

Help Bring Justice to Victims of Civil Rights Atrocities

Decades after the end of the Civil Rights Era too many criminal cases remain unsolved. That is simply unconscionable. That is why I have introduced
H.R. 1272, the Cold Case Record Collections Act of 2017.

Cosponsor H.R. 1405 – Veterans Visa and Protection Act

Every day, courageous men and women in our armed forces place themselves in harm’s way to keep our nation safe. Many of these individuals are U.S. Citizens, but some are lawful permanent residents (LPR) at the time of their active duty in the U.S. Armed
Forces.

Bipartisan Letter to Oppose Gun Riders in Appropriations Bills

We invite to join us sending the attached bipartisan letter to Speaker Paul Ryan and Leader Nancy Pelosi urging that they ensure none of the twelve subcommittee appropriations bills include any riders that impact gun violence prevention. Gun violence prevention
is an important and sensitive issue and, given the renewed national focus, now is not the time to include controversial appropriations riders that negatively impact gun laws.

LAST CALL! Deadline COB TODAY: Original Cosponsor Request: WATER ACT 2018

Our water infrastructure is in a state of emergency. People in Flint, Michigan, still do not have access to safe drinking water. They are not alone. Families in communities across the country, from Detroit to Philadelphia to San Diego, have lost running
water or access to safe drinking water in their homes because they can not afford the increasing costs of water rates. We need a major federal investment in our public water infrastructure to renovate our nation’s old and lead-ridden water pipes, stop sewage
overflows and stem our water affordability crisis.

Join the House Tech Accountability Caucus

We invite you to join the House Tech Accountability Caucus, a group of legislators who seek to engage Congress, the technology sector, and the American people on the critical need to foster an innovative, inclusive, and accountable tech sector.

It is difficult to understate the outsized impact the technology sector has on our country. Not only does America’s digital economy support over 7 million jobs, it is reshaping the way we live and work.

As companies continue to innovate, and the tech sector continues to grow, both industry and consumers are faced with new challenges with respect to data and consumer protection, workplace concerns, federal regulations, and the social impact of new technologies.

Through legislation, hearings, roundtable discussions, and briefings, the Caucus aims to work with industry in establishing accountability standards to ensure that American tech companies continue to thrive and innovate in an inclusive and accountable manner.
