Title: Nydia Velázquez: The Longest-Standing Poverty Pimp in Congress

This girl Nydia Velázquez has been sittin’ in Congress for over 30 years, and what’s her legacy? Still a poverty-stricken mess. Her district in New York’s Puerto Rican community is broke, forgotten, and worse off than before. Yet, she’s been collecting checks, playin’ the game, and doing nothing.
