I’ve been doing this work for a long time, John. Growing up in a parsonage in the Jim Crow South, I learned early on that it’s not only our words that matter -- it’s our deeds, too.
I took those lessons to heart and got involved in civil rights at a young age -- 12 to be exact. I was a founding member -- along with my dear friend the late Congressman John Lewis -- of the Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee. In fact, I met my late wife, Emily, while in jail for organizing a sit-in at a segregated lunch counter in Orangeburg, South Carolina. We shared a hamburger that day, and got married 18 months later.
John, I’m still fighting for those same values -- to put America’s greatness within reach for all Americans, no matter what they look like, who they love, or where they live. That’s what I’ve been doing for the 30 years I’ve been in Congress -- from my time as House Majority Whip to the work I’m doing now as Democratic Assistant Leader. [[link removed]]

Democrats are putting people over politics, cutting child poverty in half, lowering prescription drug costs, creating good-paying job opportunities, getting broadband into more homes and businesses, and ensuring everyone has access to clean drinking water.
In the coming months, we must organize to save our country from MAGA Republicans who want to set back progress and take away our rights, from voting rights to reproductive freedom.
Your support will be essential to those efforts, John, and we have an important FEC deadline coming up this Saturday. Any amount you can contribute would be greatly appreciated. [[link removed]]
It’s up to people of good will to raise their voices and get involved. For that reason, I’m grateful to have you as part of our organization as we prepare for 2024 and elections to come, John.
Thank you,
Jim
