Notes from our planning meeting
John,
We just wrapped up a planning meeting and had to sit down to write this. Because while some folks are playing politics, Summer Lee is in the fight of her life—for us.
Whether it’s standing up for the federal workers who were fired unfairly, pushing for peace when too many are pushing for war, or fighting back against the Trump-era gutting of federal agencies—Summer is giving it hell.
And that’s why I’m asking you to click here and chip in $10 or whatever you can right now. We’ve got a big fight ahead, and it starts with making sure Summer has the resources to win it.
Now, here's the twist. While Summer’s out here doing the work—the real work—a Democrat just jumped in the race to run against her. Yeah. You read that right. While Summer is fighting Trump, this person’s fighting… Summer.
And I’ve gotta say, it’s exhausting. And sadly, it’s not surprising. Black women in politics face these kinds of challenges all the time. Did you know Black women candidates raise one-third of what white candidates raise on average? That makes every dollar we raise for Summer today even more important.
This isn’t just any seat. Summer Lee is the first Black woman ever elected to Congress from Pennsylvania. She made history—and she’s out here making change. But we’ve seen what happens when the establishment gets nervous about someone like Summer actually delivering for our communities.
We can’t let them drown her out.
So I’m asking again—because we mean it when we say every dollar matters. Can you click here and pitch in $5, $25, $50, or whatever’s doable to help Summer stay in this fight?
Chip in $5 »
We are so lucky to have someone like Summer going to bat for us. And now it’s our turn to fight for her.
Let’s show them exactly what happens when you come for one of our own.
In solidarity,
Team Summer
P.S. This isn’t just about one election—it’s about protecting a bold, unapologetic voice for justice, equity, and real change. Let’s get loud and let’s get organized!
