Torres Small's Statement on Heroes Act Vote

Washington DC – Tonight, Rep. Xochitl Torres Small released the statement below following her vote on the $3 trillion Heroes Act.

“COVID-19–and rebuilding our economy in the wake of it—is the greatest challenge our country has faced in over a decade.  We need bipartisan solutions to overcome it,” said Torres Small.  "I will continue to fight for direct funding for states, local communities, and tribal governments, as well as hazard pay for our essential workers on the front lines.  But over $1 trillion of this bill was spent elsewhere.  Hard times call for strong priorities, and Congress should put aside partisan politics to rebuild through smart infrastructure investments.  Now more than ever, we must work together to get things done.”
