Wexton Votes to Advance Build Back Better Act to Improve the Lives of Virginia Families

Statement

Today, Congresswoman Jennifer Wexton (D-VA) voted to advance the Build Back Better Act through the House of Representatives, which will help every Virginia family bounce back strong from the pandemic by lowering everyday costs for families, making health care more affordable, and combating the climate crisis while creating good-paying American jobs.

"Our Build Back Better Act will lighten the financial burdens that have weighed extra heavy on families during the pandemic and keep our economy on a path to a strong and full recovery," said Congresswoman Jennifer Wexton. "The transformative policies that we're delivering in this legislation -- universal pre-K, affordable child care, and lower cost health care and prescription drugs -- will lower day-to-day costs for Virginians and help set our kids up for a bright future. I'll continue fighting for the issues most important to Virginia families as this crucial legislation moves through Congress."
