Hey John — My
phone sent me a throwback photo as a memory the other day, and I had to
share it with you.
In 2002, I brought my daughter Lexi to the Capitol with me for work. She
was only four, but already had a better fashion sense than her dad.

Right after this photo was taken, we ran into Nancy Pelosi, who was the
minority whip at the time. “This is Nancy Pelosi,” I explained. “She’s our
whip. If you don’t vote the way she wants, she has a whip.”
“Don’t tell her that,” the Speaker said, then got down on her knees so she
was eye-level with Lexi and said: “It’s a candy whip. It’s a candy whip.”
(“It’s not a candy whip,” I said to myself.)
Twenty years later, Lexi is a grown-up. She still has better taste than
me. And sometimes, she even writes emails to send to you, which I
appreciate more than words could say.
What’s also remained the same since this photo was taken is my fight in
Congress. The North Star that has guided me during my time in Congress,
and now in my campaign for the United States Senate, is what is best for
the next generation.
I also want to make my kids proud of what their father did when he had a
chance to serve.
That’s why I’m fighting for our democracy and protecting the right to
vote. The right to vote is foundational — the right upon which all others
rest. Destroy the foundation, and the walls of our democracy come
crumbling down.
It’s why I’m fighting against climate change and supporting transformative
investments in clean energy and a new green economy. It’s why I am an
original co-sponsor of the Green New Deal. If future generations don’t
have clean air, clean water, or an inhabitable planet, what’s the point of
any of the work we do now?
It’s why I’m fighting for universal health care and Medicare for All. Too
many Americans fall through the cracks, can’t afford quality health care,
and face bankruptcy to pay for medical bills. It’s obscene, especially in
the wealthiest country in the world.
It’s why I’m fighting for federal student loan forgiveness. Burying our
children with generational debt isn’t sustainable or right. It’s
preventing young people from buying homes, starting families, and living
happy lives. It took me ten years to pay off my student loans, ten years
in which they cost more than my rent. And I was one of the lucky ones.
