The biggest challenge facing families in our Valley is the high cost of living, which is why I am focused on making groceries and gas cheaper. I continue to introduce and support legislation that helps reduce these costs, like the Tax Relief for American Families and Workers Act of 2024, which puts more money back in your pockets and makes it easier for local businesses to provide good-paying jobs. I’ve also voted for major water bills that will allow farmers to grow more affordable fruits and vegetables. My efforts in Congress aim to ease these burdens so all Valley families can enjoy holidays like today without financial worry. The policies I've supported directly help our Valley—from working families struggling to make ends meet to the small businesses that create good-paying jobs. These policies lead to more disposable income for families to spend on food, rent, and electricity and to enjoy the little things, like our celebrations today. I am fighting to bring down the coat of living even more. As we celebrate the Fourth of July, I recognize that many families are feeling the strain of the rising cost of living. As we celebrate the Fourth of July, I remain committed to working with both parties ensure that our Valley has cheaper groceries, more affordable gas, and more good-paying jobs.
