100 days and 200 million Americans vaccinated!

Dear Neighbor,

We reached some critical milestones this week! In less than 100 days, over 200 million vaccinations have been administered to Americans under President Biden's leadership. Proof is in the numbers, and leadership truly does matter as we continue facing this pandemic. On that note--if you haven't received your vaccine yet, those in San Diego can now walk up to county vaccination sites without scheduling an appointment!

I have a few more updates for you, so please scroll down to read more!

 
President Biden's Joint Address to Congress

On Wednesday night, President Biden marked 100 days in office by laying out a bold vision to invest in America’s families and build back better from this pandemic during his first address to a Joint Session of Congress. 

To help commemorate this occasion, I was honored to invite Vista Community Clinic CEO, Fernando Sañudo as my honorary virtual guest! Thanks to President Biden’s determination to get Americans vaccinated, robust relief provided under the American Rescue Plan, and the hard work of health care providers like the Vista Community Clinic, we are closer than ever to putting this pandemic behind us.  
  
While Mr. Sañudo and I could not to attend the address in person due to COVID-19 precautions, I was proud to maintain the tradition of honoring CA-49 constituents who represent the best of our district at the Address.

This past weekend Tri-City Medical Center showed me around their vaccination site. I want thank the staff at Tri-City Medical Center for their leadership and efforts to get shots in arms! Each vaccination site here in CA-49 is critical to our community’s efforts to get through this pandemic, and I’m grateful to you all!

That's all for now, but before I go, I want to encourage everyone to head to my Facebook page and check out the final submissions for our 2021 Congressional Art Competition. We have incredible submissions from 86 high school artists!
