Congresswoman Sheila Cherfilus-McCormick introduced the African Diaspora Investment and Development Act (AIDA) with Rep. Jonathan Jackson (D-IL) to take bold action—lowering remittance costs, boosting diaspora-led investment, and aligning U.S. policy with the strength of African and Caribbean communities. It’s time to invest in sustainable development, dignity, and shared prosperity.
