WASHINGTON – Rep. Doris Matsui (D-Sacramento) issued the following statement on xnxx.com gay sex video spying caFriday after the House passed the Build Back Better Act.

“Today, the House passed a milestone achievement for our kids, our grandkids, and all American families. This monumental piece of legislation makes once-in-a-generation progress for the American people by delivering a more resilient, equitable, and sustainable economy for generations to come.

“By passing the Build Back Better Act, we are unleashing the potential of American workers and families by giving them the tools they need to succeed. I fought hard to include several provisions that will make meaningful improvements for the lives of Sacramentans. I worked to ensure it makes historic investments to expand access to quality home-based services and care for millions of older adults and people with disabilities. I fought for robust funding to lower carbon emissions, combat the climate crisis, and provide clean air for all. I also advocated for investments in American families by expanding the Child Tax Credit and slashing child care costs.

“This legislation delivers on our promise to build our economy back better and ensure that all can share in the benefits. We are providing real solutions to build a more prosperous future. I now urge my colleagues in the Senate to act with the urgency the American people deserve.”
