Team,
Congress right now is “controlled” by the Republican party – but you wouldn’t think so based on all their name-calling, infighting, and general inability to run the government.
Last week, they left Washington and went home on a recess without passing a budget for Fiscal Year 2024, without passing foreign aid funding to support our allies, and without passing legislation securing our border or addressing immigration.
This is why we can’t trust Republicans at any level of government – and why it’s so important that we elect strong Democrats to office across our state.
If we want to get anything done, we need to do it ourselves – and that’s why we’re working so hard to build our party and recruit strong candidates. Can you make a contribution to our efforts right now?

Our border is in crisis. Our immigration system is broken. Vladimir Putin is attacking our democracy and our allies. Congress won't be able to pay its bills come March. And where are Darin LaHood, Mike Bost, and Mary Miller? They're at home while their leader meets with indicted ex-President Donald Trump.
Republicans said ‘fix the border.’ Republicans and Democrats came up with a bipartisan bill, and then Republicans in the House said ‘just kidding.’
The federal government is operating under a continuing resolution until March 1st and March 8th, and the U.S. House is on recess until February 25th. That leaves just a few days for the Republicans to fund the government and keep the country running.
If Democrats were in charge, we wouldn’t be in this situation. This is why it’s so critical that we recruit, train and support great candidates at all levels of government — because when Republicans in Congress let us down, we need Democrats in our state committed to picking up the pieces and getting things done.

The American people know better, and expect better than Republican inaction. Stop the games. Get serious. Fix the problem. And get back to work.
Thanks,
