Letter of the Week
Summer Lee Delivers to Western PA.....
Summer Lee works tirelessly to champion for Western Pennsylvania. She promotes economic justice, union jobs and environmental justice, and co-sponsored 20-plus bills strengthening voting rights, safeguarding democracy and fighting for reproductive health.
She passed through committee $10.7 million in funding for food assistance, addressing antisemitism, affordable housing, rebuilding infrastructure and more. This month she delivered a check funding a North Irwin bridge replacement needed for 10 years.
Summer Lee delivers for her constituents. Willing to fight for our needs, her local office staff works to solve constituents’ problems. She is our voice in Washington. Lee supports police by supporting mental health and crisis intervention assistance to enhance police work.
Sadly, Moderate PAC, funded by Republican mega donor Jeffrey Yass, is running ads using Republican money supporting her opponent Bhavini Patel. No Democratic candidate should be funded by Donald Trump-supporting Republican donors. Contrary to misinformational political ads, Lee was not in Congress during the Infrastructure and Inflation Reduction Acts votes, as wrongly reported in Patel’s ads.
Lee supports President Biden and will continue to work to protect our freedoms. Look beyond the negative TV ads — Lee has a proven record of working for her constituents. Vote for Summer Lee on April 23.
