This is important to me: I want everyone to know the Elijah I know.

I’ve been Elijah’s political director for 13 years, which is a really long time in the world of politics. That’s because I wouldn’t change jobs for the world.

I’ve never once felt cynical about politics or our ability to change things when they’re not working, and that has everything to do with who Elijah is. Elijah feels honored to represent Baltimore every day, and it seeps into everything he does: He shows up, he listens, and he fights for us every day. He fights to protect voting rights and health care, and he is holding the Trump administration accountable.

Unfortunately, it’s his commitment to his work that’s pushed him into the limelight now and opened up the floodgates for attacks.

But true to form, Elijah won’t back down. He has our back through and through.

We need to have his now.

The FEC quarter is halfway over, and we need to put up strong numbers to show just how many people stand with Elijah. Can you make a contribution before our deadline at midnight?
