Tlaib, colleagues reintroduce anti-poverty legislation helping 218 million Americans

“‘We can and must do more to lift families out of poverty, which is why I’m proud to be an original cosponsor of the BOOST Act. This legislation will provide relief for families struggling to get by and make our economy fairer for all,’ Chairwoman Maloney said.
The legislation is also supported by local community organizations—including Wayne Metropolitan Community Action Agency, Detroit Action, Mothering Justice, and Operation Refuge—who understand the importance and impact of it as an anti-poverty tool that will make a tremendous difference for families in Michigan’s 13th and across the country.”
