An Open Letter
To: Rep. Mrvan
From: A verified voter in LA Porte, IN
December 16
I know the Senate just passed the Stop Institutional Child Abuse Act with unanimous support. This bill would place greater federal safeguards on institutional youth treatment programs; it’s long overdue. Will the Congressmember vote yes?
Also, I know Rep. Ocasio-Cortez is running to be the ranking member of the House Oversight Committee but that Speaker Emerita Pelosi is working to elevate someone else—Rep Gerry Connolly—to that position. I’m writing to say that my support is unequivocally behind AOC. Unless Democrats want to lose the enthusiasm of every voter in the party, they will support her bid. We need new, young blood—not the status quo. AOC is the brilliant and fearless leader we need at this moment. Please ask the Congressmember to back her bid. Thanks.
