When you vote to name the Third Floor Adult LIbrary after Jackie Speier, you are voting for a person who claimed she was against assault rifles but continuously voted to increase the military budget. Most recently, Jackie Speier voted for the highest military budget in United States history in FY 2023, billions of dollars above the Trump military budget and billions of dollars higher than what the Biden administration originally requested. The billions that Jackie Speier continuously voted for is money that could have gone to health care, education, public transportation, and housing, but instead they went to line the pockets of defense contractors. - Darryl Y., District 2 resident
