The world we’re fighting for is possible.

I am beyond proud of what this team has achieved.

In Tuesday’s primary election, Massachusetts voters decisively chose me as their Democratic nominee, poised for a fourth term in Congress. I am no less honored and humbled today than I was six years ago, when we won our first primary.

In 2018, I took on a 10-term incumbent Congressman. I was projected to lose by 20 points. But change couldn’t wait, and neither did we.

We built a strong, grassroots movement — an intergenerational, multiracial coalition of workers, educators, entrepreneurs, artists, activists, faith leaders, and community leaders — with a mandate for bold, transformative change. We won by 16 points, and I became the first Black woman and first person of color to represent Massachusetts in the U.S. House of Representatives.

The change we are making in Congress is real and meaningful. We've organized for — and are winning — student debt cancellation on a scale many thought was impossible. We are bringing home millions of dollars of federal funding for underrepresented communities, and advocating for every child to have a future — from Massachusetts, to Haiti, to the Middle East.

I’ve been honored by the overwhelming support our work has received every reelection since we first made history together. Our progressive movement has stood strong, but our fight is not over.

So between now and November, I'm going to do everything in my power to campaign for abortion rights, for racial justice, and people-centered, life-changing policies for working families in Massachusetts and across the country.

That means supporting my progressive House colleagues and ensuring we take back the House.

That means defending our Senate majority by supporting Senator Elizabeth Warren here in Massachusetts.

That means hitting the campaign trail and mobilizing voters for Kamala Harris and Tim Walz so we can defeat the far-right extremists trying to take us back with Project 2025 (we are not going back).

And that means continuing to unapologetically and relentlessly advocate for our progressive values every step of the way: Fighting for a just America where one job is enough, where Black men can grow old, where there is dignity and respect for all work, where access to health care and higher education moves you forward instead of setting you back, and where we can all thrive.

A just America is possible. This diverse, intergenerational movement — led by the people — has proven time and again what we can achieve when we organize, mobilize, use our collective power, and lead with love.

This campaign has always been possible because of the $5 donations from emails like this one — and that will not change. I don’t do exclusive fundraisers with wealthy donors, and I don’t accept corporate PAC money. The strength of our progressive movement now and beyond is in the grassroots. That’s why I’m asking you to support our campaign now that we’re in the home stretch.

A donation today helps make sure our campaign can reach and turn out voters to fight for our values and win in 2024. Will you pitch in $25 or anything you can to power our fight for justice, equity, and a government that truly represents the people?
