This is Congresswoman Nellie Pou writing to you about back-to-school season.

This Back-to-School Season, thanks to these tariff policies:

This is Congresswoman Nellie Pou writing to you about our recent marking of Ukraine Independence Day.
We are blessed to live in one of the most diverse districts in all America. A key part of that is we boast one of the largest Ukrainian communities in our nation. I was honored to stand with so many proud members of that community in Clifton last week.

This is Congresswoman Nellie Pou writing to you about my recent visit to Secaucus.
I went to Secaucus this week to celebrate the grand opening of the new community center. So many Secaucus residents came out to see the facility on what was a great night for our community.
As you may know, the move to build a new community center came after it was discovered that oil tanks under the old center had been leaking for some time, compromising the building’s foundation.

As a new member of Congress, meeting with our neighbors is so important to me.

This is Congresswoman Nellie Pou writing to you about our recent celebration of India’s Independence Day.
Last week, I joined community leaders in Clifton to mark this important day and to celebrate the vital contributions of Indian Americans. Just 78 years ago, the people of India secured their sovereignty and right to self determination. Indians around the world and here in America remain guided by Mahatma Gandhi’s message of truth and non-violence.
