John, this year marks a historic moment for our progressive movement. The significance of this race is not lost on me, as there are no Black women currently serving in the Senate. That's why I am more determined than ever to fight and ensure everyone has a voice in Washington.

But before we enter the critical next stretch of our must-win race, I want to hear from you, John. My focus is on representing your interests, priorities and concerns, and I am committed to fighting for you and your family as I would for my own.

By sharing your thoughts and concerns, you are helping me build a campaign that represents and fights for the issues that matter most to you. Folks like you power us, and your input is critical to our success in creating a more progressive future for all.

So please, John – will you take a moment to let me know what issues are most important to you and your family? I'll be reviewing responses tomorrow, and having your input would mean a great deal to me.

Thank you for taking the time to share your voice and make a difference.

– Barbara Lee
