As a fifth-generation Washingtonian and small business owner, Congresswoman Perez knew first-hand the realities and concerns of workers in rural America when she decided to run for office. Given just a 2% chance of victory against her opponent, the Congresswoman beat the odds and earned the nickname, Mrs. 2%. In this episode, she discusses the unique perspective she brings to D.C. as a 34 year old representative, her commitment to Right to Repair, and what is ahead for the Farm Bill, including rising costs of living and preserving the integrity of the American food industry.
