Rashida Tlaib: “I am very proud to represent the Congressional Progressive Caucus…”

On the recordJanuary 15, 2020

I am very proud to represent the Congressional Progressive Caucus where we have close to 100 members all across the country that are pushing forward our progressive values that I think are extremely important, especially in a district like mine, frontline communities and many communities of color that are suffering from issues around poverty, jobs, environment, education, disinvestment, and so forth. So I am very honored to be representing our caucus today with the Special Order. Mr. Speaker, I yield to the gentlewoman from New Jersey (Mrs. Watson Coleman), who is my good colleague from New Jersey.
