“I take a moment to celebrate the incredible accomplishments that my team and I have been able to do on behalf of our constituents. At the beginning of the year, we opened three new Neighborhood Service Centers in Detroit, Inkster, and Southfield. Through the Neighborhood Service Centers, we have returned over $5.5 million in constituent services dollars that goes directly into the hands of 8,000 residents, returning over $306,000 this year alone. We served and responded to over 164,000 letters from our neighbors ranging from advocating for clean water, clean air, utilities for all, housing for all, and so much more. We have hosted and participated in over 120 events, including coffee hours and townhalls and resource fairs and more, really trying to help our families get through everyday challenges and issues. Our legislative advocacy has spanned from affordable housing to medical debt cancellation and ending auto insurance discrimination once and for all. Mr. Speaker, we have introduced 160 bills and amendments, and 39 of them have actually passed. This year, we celebrated the 1-year anniversary of the Congressional Mamas' Caucus where we are committed to advocating for working mothers and their families on issues of affordable childcare, pay leave, Black maternal health, and economic justice. These accomplishments would not have been possible without our residents. Thank you for believing in me and sending me here to Congress to do the people's work.…”
