Hi John, I wanted you to hear the news from me: I’m officially running for re-election to represent Massachusetts’ 7th District.

When I first ran for Congress in 2018, some folks cynically said nothing would change. That a Democrat is a Democrat. That I had nothing to offer and that our movement was fleeting. But starting with Election Night in 2018, we’ve proved the pundits wrong — we have made history together. “What has changed” they ask? Everything.

Together, our A-Team has…

Organized for student debt cancellation and pressed the Biden-Harris administration to enact this policy — and so far $138 billion has been canceled. And we’re not stopping there. We’re going to keep fighting for broad-based student debt cancellation for all borrowers.
Brought home millions of dollars of federal funding — to build more affordable housing, to fund fare-free buses, to pilot free college programs, to build safe bike lanes, and more. Oh, and when conservatives recently stripped funding for LGBTQ+ senior housing in our district, we fought back and we got that funding reinstated.
Advocated for justice for the people, from peacefully protesting on the steps of the Capitol to stop the expiration of the eviction moratorium during COVID-19, to calling for an immediate ceasefire to save lives and return hostages in Gaza.

This is the kind of change we can make when the people closest to the pain are closest to the power, driving and informing policy-making. We CAN continue to build a future where working one job is enough, bodily autonomy is a human right, homeownership is within reach, and policies are rooted inhumanity and love — but only if we keep fighting.

So John, I’m asking you to invest in this fight by splitting a contribution of $25 or anything you can to support my re-election campaign and Blue Amp Action. We rely on small-dollar donations to do this work, and your support will ensure that we can keep fighting for progressive policies together. Thank you.

DONATE

Six years ago, this team elected the first Black woman and first person of color to represent Massachusetts in Congress — but this movement is about so much more than that.

I told this team that if you sent me to Washington, I wasn’t going alone. I was bringing all of you with me. You all are my teachers, my partners, and my accomplices. The issues that you care about are the issues I fight for.

By investing in our campaign, you are affirming the dignity and worth of every person who has been left out and left behind.

You are sending a message that corporate interests should never win over working people.

You’re affirming that abortion is health care.

That a college education should move us forward, not set us back.

That Black men deserve to grow old.

That you believe that all of our children deserve a future — whether they’re in Massachusetts, Gaza, or Haiti.

That this movement is STRONG.

I love the Massachusetts 7th district.

It is an honor to represent the people of the Massachusetts 7th, and this movement, in Congress. If you can, please split a donation of $25 or anything you can to support my re-election campaign and Blue Amp Action during this important moment.

Your Congresswoman,

Ayanna

About BlueAmp Action:

We cannot sugarcoat the current situation. Right-wing authoritarianism, defeated by a worldwide coalition during WWII, was only in hibernation. Over the past decade it has infected democratic societies--including ours. It is as simple as it is terrifying: What we do now will define the future of our country and world.

We at Blue Amp Action are dedicated to liberal, open societies, where reason and science are applied to solve our problems; where civil rights--including voting rights!--are protected for all. We fight for these values every day. Speaking up on our platforms, raising the voices and the political prospects of liberal pols and pundits.

And savvy grassroots activists like you know, just like we do, that we can’t stop watching the people we help elect: after the elections, we have to keep organizing support for the policies we like and pushing back against the ones we don’t.

When the public tunes out between elections and the only people our elected officials hear from are the paid lobbyists of wealthy corporations, our government stops being accountable to the needs of ordinary families.

Democracy never sleeps, and neither can we.

So we ask that you support our work, so we can continue to engage in this fight every moment of every day. So our kids grow up in democracy, not dystopia.

Thank you for your support for all we do! Please follow Cliff Schecter on Twitter @cliffschecter, or subscribe to The Takedown with Cliff Schecter on YouTube, to keep up to date with this battle for the heart and soul of our country.
