Hello --
I need you to make me a promise. I need you to promise to vote this November, friends.
Because if you want police officers held accountable for crimes they commit, then you need to vote and elect prosecutors who will do so.
If you want new training practices and stronger thresholds for use-of-force, then you need to vote for officials who will make these changes and ensure real accountability.
And if you want leaders in Washington who have morals, the courage to lead with compassion, and practice love for all people -- then you must vote this November.
Do not stop demanding change, do not slow down, and do not forget to vote this November. I promise to vote for change, and I hope you will, too.
In 2018, we ran a campaign driven by love and compassion for one another and took back our voice in Congress. Voters went to the polls in historic numbers and did what many considered impossible by flipping a red, rural district blue.
The power of our vote can reform our broken criminal system, make leaders who use violence against peaceful protestors cower, and make the dismantling of systemic racism possible. But only if we continue to speak truth and vote our conscience.
That's why I'm asking you to please promise to vote this November. Cast your ballot with love in your heart and progress on your mind. If you do, a change will come.
With love,
Antonio
