Dear John,
The President, House Democrats, Senate Democrats, and even Senate Republicans are ready and eager to fund the government.
What's the hold-up?
The Speaker of the House has lost control of his party. He is letting the most extreme MAGA Republican members of his caucus run the show in the hopes that he keeps his job as Speaker.
Can you imagine?
Giving in to the demands of a small group of extremists, letting the government shut down, and leaving 800,000 workers without pay all because you want to maintain your personal position of power?
I can’t. But somehow, this is happening in our United States Congress under Republican control.
When Democrats are in the House majority, we don’t let personal power grabs and extremist demands define how and when we choose to fund our government. And I am working year-round to put our government back in the hands of those who want to govern, not merely hold power.
I am working to shore up the resources needed to mount strong Democratic challenges to incumbent Republicans in swing districts and to protect Democratic seats in 2024. We need your support today and often throughout 2024 to power this success.
