Dear Sandeep,
We hope all is well with you and your family, and that you are safe and healthy.
This week, Congressman Raja Krishnamoorthi joined Lawrence O'Donnell on MSNBC to discuss the impending removal of Trump ally postmaster general Louis DeJoy. When asked about what happens next at the postal service the Congressman said that, "They will address some really horrible mail slowdowns that are affecting everybody... my constituents are complaining about medication not arriving on time, checks not arriving on time... everybody is experiencing this. It has to change right away."
Congressman Krishnamoorthi also penned a piece in the Daily Herald this week, highlighting his contributions to the recently passed historic investments in American infrastructure. The Congressman wrote that, "Rather than focusing on our common hopes and dreams, too many political leaders these days seek to divide us. Rather than appealing to 'our better angels,' as Lincoln described them, they promote derision and distrust. The infrastructure bill can help us bridge those divides because the projects it supports will benefit everyone. No region of our state is left out."
The Congressman, along with Senator Cory Booker, recently led a bicameral group of more than two dozen lawmakers in urging the U.S. Department of Education to address student voter registration and participation. The letter comes as several states tackle the issue of voting rights. They wrote that, "Across the country, voting rights are under attack, and new laws restricting access to voting have been transparently intended to discourage students and people of color from participating in our elections... The Department can and should play a significant role in supporting democracy by creating additional nonpartisan opportunities for students to register to vote, keep their voter registration up to date, and participate in state and federal elections."
