DWCSC June Meeting: Voter Outreach
06/06/2026
"Senators voted 52-47 to pass the $70 billion legislation to fund Immigration and Customs Enforcement and Border Patrol for the next three years, through the end of Trump’s term, after Democrats blocked the money for months. The bill will now head to the House, which is expected to take it up next week.
The final vote came just before 5 a.m., after Republicans narrowly defeated multiple attempts by members of both parties to add language to the bill that would permanently ban Trump’s settlement fund for allies who believe they’ve been politically persecuted."

Tune in for this virtual presentation on affordability + the environment with Democratic Environmental Caucus of Florida (DECF)
Climate change, pollution, and environmental destruction are major drivers of the escalation in costs for all Americans. Join us as we learn together:
How these environmental crises drive up the costs of transportation, homeowner’s insurance, affordable housing, and even medical care.
➡️ For candidates: learn how to campaign on Affordability as it relates to environmental issues, and what specific environmental policies you can support once you are elected, to bring down the inflated costs we are all experiencing.
