Folks, in a major win for the American people, the government shutdown was avoided — for now. Congress passed a stopgap bill funding the government until November 17th.

But here’s what I can’t stop thinking about: more House Democrats voted in favor of the bill than Republicans, despite Republicans having the majority in the House.

Democrats dragged Republicans kicking and screaming into keeping the government open. It’s clear that we need more Democrats in the House to hold Republican extremists accountable. Will you chip in so I can get to Congress to be the leader TX-15 needs?

90 Republicans voted against keeping the government open.

That means 90 Republicans would rather let millions of people go without paychecks and without much needed benefits for their own political gain.

It’s disgraceful and Texans deserve better.

Folks, we need real leadership in Congress. I will always fight to protect the well-being of the American people first and foremost. Will you chip in right now to help push this campaign forward so I can get to Washington and do just that?

In solidarity,

Michelle Vallejo
