This email is a little longer than usual, but it would mean a lot if you'd take a few minutes to read it all the way through, friend.

It’s been a few months since the MAGA majority took over in the House, and they’re determined to grind our progress to a screeching halt.

It’s going to be a real challenge to get things done, but I’m up to the task. Here’s my plan of action:

1. Putting People First, Not Special Interests

My last election could’ve been a walk in the park – all I needed to do was throw my integrity out the window and sell out to special interests in exchange for a steady stream of campaign cash.

But I didn’t get into politics to win elections. I did it to solve problems that impact all of us. That’s why I’ve shut my door to weapons manufacturers and mega-polluters and stood up to big pharma since my very first day in office. I’ll continue to take a stand against anyone who puts people in harm’s way for profit.

Right-wing super PACs and MAGA megadonors spent millions trying to unseat me in November because of those tough stances. But we defeated them with the strength of this grassroots coalition. We’ll do it again in 2024.

2. Standing Up to Hate & Extremism

Americans made it clear in November: They want compassionate, hardworking leaders – not attention-seeking fanatics.

Big Liars, climate crisis enablers, anti-democratic extremists, and anyone who hangs out with neo-Nazis in their free time have absolutely no place in the halls of power, full stop.

Unlike Kevin McCarthy, I’m not afraid to condemn those who use their offices to instigate hatred and violence. Together, we’ll fight to restore accountability, integrity, and empathy in Washington.

3. Ignore the Noise, Focus on the Facts

As a scientist and entrepreneur, I learned a long time ago to always face things head-on.

I flipped IL-06 blue for the first time in a generation, and I didn’t do it by repeating tired, vague, poll-tested phrases. I did it by laying out the facts and engaging in the tough, honest conversations that my predecessor neglected.

That’s why I’ll always seek out evidence-based and results-driven solutions to address the most serious problems we face. And in Washington, I’m fighting to ensure that all our federal policymaking is rooted in fact, not political fantasy.

The obstructive right-wing majority in the House means I’ll need your support every step of the way. Will you chip in $15 or whatever you can to help us get Democrats mobilized and ready for the challenges ahead?
