Here’s a snapshot of what you had to say:
John, a couple weeks ago we sent around a post-election survey to members of this grassroots team.
We wanted to know what voters think Democrats need to do differently to win back the working class — and nearly 3,000 of you responded. Here’s a snapshot of what you had to say:

Will you make a $3 donation before midnight to help us reach our end-of-month goal and rebuild the Democratic Party around a bold, populist, working-class agenda?
As Chair of the Congressional Progressive Caucus, Pramila will be working to put your feedback into action over the next four years. We have our work cut out for us, but the direction we need to go is clear.
Democrats have taken working-class voters for granted for too long, and this year it came back to bite us. We need to fight for bold policies like Medicare for All that will actually make a difference in people’s lives — and when we actually have the power to act on those policies, it’s imperative that we follow through.
But she can’t do it alone. As one of the first Members of Congress to refuse corporate PAC money, Pramila relies on grassroots supporters like you to power this movement. And even though this election just ended, we still need your help to reach this month’s goal.
John, will you pitch in $3 before tonight’s midnight deadline to help us reach our goal and keep fighting for working families across the country?
