Today, I voted for the #AmericanRescuePlan because this $1.9T package is a critical lifeline for not only our residents in a form of a direct payment, but for our local governments, states, and school districts to ensure that our neighbors continue to get the services they need. Image
One year ago today, Michigan’s Governor Gretchen Whitmer announced the first cases of #COVID19 in the state. Since that day, the lives of Michiganders and residents in #13thDistrictStrong have been forever changed. detroitnews.com/story/news/pol…

.@RepBonnie, @RepMarkTakano, and I just announced we will introduce the Preventing Auto Insurance Discrimination (PAID) Study Act, which mandates a @USGAO study on the disparate impacts of auto insurance discrimination. More here: tlaib.house.gov/media/press-re….
This is a follow-up to my and @RepBonnie's introduction of the #PAIDAct last year. Auto insurers have reaped benefits off the financial struggles of so many Americans for far too long—and it's only gotten worse amid the #COVID19 pandemic.
FACT: Auto insurance is rife with systemic racism. We must get the real world impact of auto insurance discrimination studied—and demonstrated—so we can finally get residents in #13thDistrictStrong and beyond the relief they deserve.
