Town Hall Congressional Insider Series: Congresswoman Pramila Jayapal (CD 7)

In partnership with the Washington Indivisible Network and Indivisible Tacoma, we bring you our Insider Town Hall Series, speaking with key decision-makers in Congress and the state legislature about issues Indivisibles care about.

Today, Congresswoman Pramila Jayapal. As the Chair of the Congressional Progressive Caucus, she has occupied a central place in the national discussion about how progressives both define and advocate for their agenda.

In this town hall, we hear about her caucus’s instrumental role in inserting direct payments and enhanced unemployment insurance for people and families into the recently passed COVID relief bill. We also talk about the CPC’s 2021 legislative agenda, The People’s Agenda, and we learn about the many ways Indivisible’s agenda dovetails with it, and about how we can work together to achieve common goals.

This conversation was recorded on the evening of Tuesday, December 22nd.

The People’s Agenda, the 2021 legislative agenda of the Congressional Progressive Caucus:
