Thank you, Ros-Lehtinen

I would like to thank Rep. Ileana Ros-Lehtinen for everything that she has done for our community, especially during the Zika virus crisis.

As an expectant mother, I have seen her leadership as a member of Congress who has actually taken bold steps to tackle the Zika emergency in Miami-Dade.

My husband and I are worried about the situation, but are proud to say that our representative is spearheading the search for more funding to appropriately handle this outbreak.
