Now more than ever, we need leaders in Washington who fight for working families, understand the root causes of the crisis we face, and know how to make big, structural change.
In short, we need leaders like my friend Representative Deb Haaland.
Throughout her career of public service, she's lifted up the voices of people who've been left out of power.
In 2018, she was part of the wave of women who volunteered, organized, and won up and down the ticket, helping to win our Democratic House Majority.
She made history last year as one of the first Native American women to serve in Congress, and she's helped lead the charge to level the playing field for working people.
Now, she's up for re-election, and I'm honored to endorse her again. She's ready to keep up the fight, but she can't do it alone — as a grassroots movement, we need to fight by her side. And she's got a critical fundraising goal to hit before this end-of-month deadline.
Deb got in the fight to make real, systemic change, and, since coming into office, has never backed down from protecting working families.
That's one of the reasons why I chose her as my campaign co-chair.
I'm honored to support her re-election and proud to stand shoulder to shoulder with her in the fight to create a government that works for everyone, not just the wealthy and the powerful.
But here's the thing about fighting for working people and standing up to powerful interests: It can make you some powerful enemies. And that makes grassroots support even more vital.
Along with leaders like Deb, I'm grateful to be in this fight by your side, because no one person can make change all by themselves — it takes a movement.
