Last week was a blur so I wanted to make sure you had a chance to see my message. Things are in flux right now and with each day more news alerts are hitting with possible appointments and the incoming administration's intentions. I understand this moment may feel overwhelming. I want to reassure you I am going back to Congress understanding the increased importance of my position and assure you of my dedication and determination to use every inch of my platform to advocate for you, your family, and our community.

I also promise to use my email program to keep you informed on actions we can and must take together in the weeks, months and years ahead.

Begin forwarded message:

Team, this has been a challenging week. But as we prepare to head into the weekend, I wanted to reach out and show my gratitude for your continued trust and re-electing me to serve Berks and Montgomery Counties in Congress. It is my honor and privilege — thank you.

We won this cycle with 59% of the vote in our district. The trust that displays doesn't go unnoticed and I thank you for allowing me to continue supporting you.

While other important races did not go as you and I had hoped — and worked for — I will be going back to Washington to fight for higher wages for workers, lower costs for families, and more affordable healthcare for everyone — for women’s rights, for our children and grandchildren. I am also going back understanding the increased importance of my position and assure you my dedication and determination has never been stronger to use every inch of my platform to advocate for you, your family, and our community. .

I am committed to serving my constituents and working for the people of Berks and Montco — for a better future for all.

Join me in taking time to rest and reflect — knowing this fight and work will continue tomorrow.

And all the best to our Veterans and military families.

Warmly and sincerely,

Madeleine
