John — did you
see Adam’s message?
The January 6 insurrection at the United States Capitol demonstrated how
close we came to losing our democracy, and the threat that Donald Trump
and the MAGA movement pose.
Every day since that violent assault, Adam has worked tirelessly to defend
our democracy from the conspiratorial, dangerous movement that has
attempted to overthrow our elections, call for the imprisonment of
political rivals, and turn us against one another.

John —
Few days in our country’s history have made as big of an impact on me, and
on our democracy as January 6, 2021.
I remember the January 6th attack on the Capitol like it was yesterday.
The sounds of yelling. Of insurrectionists storming the Capitol building
and breaking doors and windows to get in. Of the whispers between members
of Congress deciding how to protect ourselves.
The sight of Capitol police officers running toward danger. Of my
colleagues crouched on the floor, clutching masks to protect themselves
from tear gas. Of thousands of protestors assaulting Capitol Police and
desecrating the hallowed halls of Congress.
You could sense the fear and the urgency. And the anger over what this mob
was doing to overturn a free and fair election. And then, finally, once
the fighting was over and we had fulfilled our duty to certify the
election, the recognition that our democracy had survived, but barely.
John, I
will remember that day for a long time. But I will also remember what my
GOP colleagues in Congress did.
After the rioting and the mayhem, a majority of Republican members still
voted to overturn the election. Still. 147 members of Congress — many of
whom are still in office today.
Insurrectionists, too. Albeit in suits and ties.
Since that day, we have seen nothing but continued threats to our
Constitution and our democracy — by way of election deniers running for
office, and members of Congress continuing to support Donald Trump, vowing
to pardon him and try to erase history.
Our democracy was battered and bruised on January 6, 2021, and it has not
yet recovered. The number of Republicans who believe the election was
stolen has been increasing since January 6, and that has only emboldened
Trump and his MAGA followers even more.
It’s going to take hard work by everyone to move this country forward and
finally relegate Trump to the dustbin of history. But we will. We must be
a country that can have political disagreements without resorting to
violence and insurrection.

We will get through this difficult time in our history. America is a
deeply resilient country filled with patriotic citizens who love our
democracy, and those who do, vastly outnumber those trying to tear it
down.
Please take care of yourselves, and thank you for all your support during
this pivotal time in our history.
