Hoy es un día histórico. El American Rescue Plan le extiende a Puerto Rico el Child Tax Credit y el Earned Income Tax Credit. Llevo muchísimos años trabajando de cerca con mis colegas demócratas y con organizaciones como el @IDJ_PR @grupocne y @CenterOnBudget para lograrlo.
El #ARP también le brindará a PR:
-cerca de 4.2 billones en ayuda directa al gobierno central y a los municipios
-ayuda directa a los ciudadanos: las personas que tuvieron en 2020 o 2019 ingresos anuales de hasta $75,000 recibirán un cheque de $1,400.
-cerca de 1 billón para NAP
Sigo: 300 millones para los territorios para poder asistir a ciudadanos con el pago de la renta, $300 mensuales para el pago por el seguro de desempleo durante los próximos 6 meses, Ayuda para el programa Mi Salud en Puerto Rico, Recursos para @desaludpr para luchar con el COVID
Todo lo incluido en el #ARP puede ser transformador para Puerto Rico. Lo logramos gracias al trabajo de mis colegas demócratas y sin un solo voto del partido republicano. Quedan muchas batallas por dar para Puerto Rico. ¡Aquí seguiremos, en pie de lucha! 🇵🇷

BFD!
Proud to stand with @SpeakerPelosi and @SenSchumer as they sign this bill. A huge step forward to help working families recover from this pandemic.
This bill will provide over $100B for New York State schools, families, workers & small businesses.

The #HeroesAct, the #coronavirus bill we are voting on today, contains several important priorities I fought for. While the bill could go further, I’m pleased with much of what we secured. 1/12
The bill boosts funds for Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (#SNAP) by 15%. In my district, I’ve seen lines at local food banks. Families need this assistance. 2/12
It provides a second round of more substantial economic stimulus payments consisting of $1,200 per family member, and up to $6,000 per household to ease the financial burden that many are experiencing due to #COVID19. 3/12

I just called the Director of BOP. He agreed situation is unacceptable and that contractor had left MDC. Given how badly MDC is handling, he agreed to get BOP Regional Director involved. We stressed need to get detainees with medical needs moved.
He also found it unacceptable I wasn't allowed to speak with inmates during last night's visit.

Continuing to monitor and push for answers & immediate action.
I want to thank my colleague @RepJerryNadler and all the NYers today who joined together to stand for justice and against this inhumane treatment. We will continue pushing for answers and more importantly, swift action.
