Sarah Elfreth;
Statement on the
Economy.
"Building an Inclusive Economy
Sarah was raised in a union household and is committed to tearing down the barriers that prevent people from fully participating in our economy. In the Maryland Senate, she fought to expand access to affordable childcare and passed a law to expand broadband access and connectivity to Maryland households and small businesses, which is vital in the new economy. She earned the endorsement of the National Education Association, International Brotherhood of Teamsters, and Baltimore Council of the International Longshoremen’s Association. On Capitol Hill, she will fight for progress on medical leave, parental leave, and caregiver leave. She will work to bring down the cost of childcare, expand access to workforce housing, and reduce the burden of student loans." (elfrethformaryland.com)
