John,

This season, we’re celebrating the joy of coming together — whether it’s lighting candles, exchanging gifts, sharing a meal, or reflecting on the year behind us. From Hanukkah to Kwanzaa, Christmas to the Winter Solstice, and every special tradition in between, December is a time to honor what matters most: family, friends, and community.

But we get it. This year has been a lot. Between work, endless notifications, and the constant noise of the world around us, it’s easy to feel like you’re “on” 24/7. That’s why I’m here to encourage you to take a break from the chaos and reconnect with the people and moments that fill you up.

These connections — real, tangible, human — remind us of what we work for every day: a future where everyone can thrive.

So here’s our holiday wish. Close your laptop. Mute the notifications. Set your away messages — because the world will still be here after the holidays. Right now, it’s time to focus on joy, rest, and the ones you love.

From all of us at When We All Vote, we wish you a peaceful, joyful, and restorative holiday season.

— Nandi
