John, it's Hank Johnson, and things are not looking good.
Earlier this week, Donald Trump was inaugurated as the 47th President of the United States—and he made good on his promise to be a "Dictator on Day One."
Since inauguration, he has abused his power by issuing dozens of executive orders to:
❌ Pardon violent January 6th offenders
❌ Begin expensive and unconstitutional mass-deportations
❌ Irreversably damage our environment by leaving the Paris Climate Accord
❌ Withdraw us from the World Health Organization
❌ Ban Transgender Americans from serving their country
❌ Waste taxpayer dollars on changing names of geographic features
John, the MAGA Supreme Court majority and spineless right-wing leaders in Congress made this possible. They delayed trials, bent the rules, and helped Trump evade accountability—all for a payout from big corporations that will milk vulnerable American workers and their pockets dry.
But our fight isn't over, John.
Although some of Trump’s goals can be achieved through executive orders, others can take months of negotiation with Congress or lengthy legal battles in our courts—and that's where I need your support. Today, will you chip in to help me spread the word and show the strength of people-first policies in Congress?
