Blog de Dunlap: What I’ve been up to

Danielle, while the 2024 election is a top priority this year, I'm still making sure we're getting work done for working families in the Senate — and that our priorities aren't being put on the back burner. I wanted to mention a few recent fights that have gotten me out of bed in the morning:

Ensuring that automatic refunds for canceled and severely delayed flights are actually automatic, by successfully pushing for that measure to be included in a recent bill that Congress has passed
Reintroducing legislation to combat the maternal health crisis and help root out the deep disparities and systemic racism in our healthcare system
Working to make sure more military families get access to affordable housing and child care
Calling out bank lobbyists and their GOP allies in Congress for trying to squash a new Consumer Financial Protection Bureau rule against credit card junk fees that would save Americans billions of dollars a year
Pressing for answers on why corporate interests are opposing a Biden-Harris administration initiative to lower prescription drug costs
Introducing a bill that would lead to lower prices for air travel by allowing for more competition among airlines
Reintroducing legislation to electrify and modernize our nation's transportation infrastructure — which would be a huge step forward in our fight against climate change
Urging accountability for a student loan servicer that's hurt hundreds of thousands of borrowers with its failures

All the while, I'm also fighting for all the big, structural change our country needs. Like ensuring universal child care. Taxing the rich to fund opportunity for all. Bringing down housing costs. Guaranteeing the right to an abortion nationwide. Rooting corruption out of Washington, including by making Supreme Court justices follow a binding code of ethics.

This is important work that I can't do alone. That's why I'm grateful for you, Danielle. Alongside a nationwide grassroots movement, you power our fight for working families — by raising your voice, by getting your friends and family members engaged, and, yes, by chipping in when you're able to.

If it makes sense for you right now, will you pitch in $100 or any amount to support our re-election campaign and help make change that touches people's lives?

Thanks for being a part of this,

Elizabeth
