.

In another post published on the same day, she wrote: “As a member of the @NewDemCoalition, I know how many working families are struggling to make ends meet. Affordability should mean more than survival.

That’s why we just released our Affordability Agenda, a workable path forward for lowering costs for families. https://t.co/6NmRm4hZpN“.

Later that afternoon, McBath referenced an article from The Atlanta Journal-Constitution about her advocacy work and personal story: “From the @AJC: McBath recalls her son’s death while pressing Bondi on immigration shootings
