Background and record
Background. Delia Ramirez is the first Latina from the Midwest elected to Congress (since 2023), the daughter of Guatemalan immigrants, and a Northeastern Illinois University graduate. She represents Chicago's northwest side and western suburbs (Bensenville, Northlake, Cicero) - including the largest Mexican American population in Chicago and parts of the historic Chicago Polish American community.
Role in Congress. She sits on House Veterans' Affairs and Homeland Security as a freshman.
Position on Ukraine. Ramirez has voted yes on every Ukraine aid package and uses her Guatemalan immigrant family identity to frame Russia's invasion through immigrant flight from authoritarianism parallels.
Strategic Read. Frame asks in terms of Homeland Security Committee jurisdiction over Russian cyber threats, Veterans' Affairs Committee jurisdiction, her Guatemalan immigrant family identity natural resonance with Ukrainian refugee experience, the Chicago northwest Polish American and Mexican American constituency, her Hispanic Caucus and Progressive Caucus coalition leverage, and her freshman openness to building a substantive foreign policy record.
Ukraine Record
- Voting record on Ukraine bills: 90.9% pro-Ukraine (20 pro, 2 anti, on 22 clean votes)
- Congressional Ukraine Caucus member
- Voted YES on Ukraine aid bills
Advocacy Playbook
- The Ask: Sign onto the Ukrainian Adjustment Act (H.R. 3104), which protects Ukrainians in the U.S. from deportation
- Why It Works: Refugee and immigrant protection is her signature advocacy issue
- Local Connection: Chicago's Ukrainian Village works with her alongside Quigley and Schakowsky
- Avoid: Military heavy framing; lead with refugee protection
Without this bill, hundreds of thousands of Ukrainians who fled the war and built lives in the U.S. face deportation back to an active war zone. This is the single most urgent protection for Ukrainians in America.

Hi, my name is [YOUR NAME], a constituent from [YOUR CITY/ZIP]. I'm calling to urge Representative [REPRESENTATIVE'S NAME] to cosponsor H.R. 3104, the Ukrainian Adjustment Act of 2025. Hundreds of thousands of Ukrainians fled Russia's invasion and are now living in the U.S. on temporary status. They cannot safely return to an active war zone. H.R. 3104 gives them a path to permanent residency. It's bipartisan, it's targeted, and it's the right thing to do. Will Representative [REPRESENTATIVE'S NAME] cosponsor H.R. 3104? Thank you.
Read this script naturally. It is a guide, not a word-for-word requirement. Staffers appreciate callers who sound like constituents, not robots.
