Re-elect Lucy McBath

 I do not live in Lucy McBath's Congressional district but like to see her reelected because of her compassion and determination to help others.

She entered Congress in 2019 to end gun violence,  expand healthcare, and reinvigorate the economy.

The shooting death of her son in 2012  made her a "mom on a mission."  She co-sponsored the Emmett Till Anti-Lynching Act of 2019 and the Bipartisan Background Checks Act of 2019. Both have passed the House and have strong bipartisan support in the Senate. In addition,  She backed the re-authorization of the Violence Against Women's Act as a freshman Congressperson that made it through the House of Representatives but has stalled on a technicality in the upper chamber.  And she coauthored workplace violence legislation during the 116th Congress and continues to speak out on violence of any kind across the country.

Aside from efforts to protect the country from violence,  McBath has fought for veterans,  families,  and students seeking higher education.  She introduced a bill on the House floor signed into law by the president, "which protects military disability benefits from going to creditors in a bankruptcy proceeding." (1)  Moreover,  she voted for the Pay Check Protection Program and Healthcare Enhancement Act that received the president's signature back in April, which lowers drug costs and helps struggling families and businesses combat the novel Corona Virus. In addition,  she and a colleague pinned The Childcare is Essential Act that awaits Senate approval. She also cast a ballot to extend eligibility to students seeking financial aid whose schools have closed or been caught up in wrongdoing. (2) Perhaps above all,  McBath and other Democrats blocked attempts to kill the Affordable Care Act and passed legislation to raise the minimum wage to $15.00 an hour that,  like many other Democratic initiatives,  sits in the Senate.

McBath has backed or been a part of other landmark legislation such as The Commission on the Social Status of Black Men and Boys Act,  which passed the Senate in 2020, middle-class tax cuts,  The Families First Corona Response Act, which became law in 2020 as well,  and disaster relief for Puerto Rico.  

With a record to stand on,  Congresswoman McBath enjoys widespread support in her district as she continues her pilgrimage of love,  respect,  and justice for every American citizen.
