Team, I wanted to take a moment to say thank you before getting into the news about the GOP’s massive budget bill.
Because of your support with our end-of-quarter FEC filing, we’re in a strong position heading into the heart of the summer — and that’s no small thing with everything going on around us.
In this political moment, when chaos and cruelty seem to be the GOP’s playbook, our report shows we’re backed by a tenacious grassroots team that believes in compassion, justice, and truth.
You showed up. And that sends a message: we’re not backing down. Not from extremism. Not from misinformation. Not from the fights ahead. If you didn’t have a chance yet to chip in to help keep our momentum up, you can still do so here.
Now for the news. ICYMI — this week the Senate passed Trump’s “Big, Beautiful Bill,” and sent it back to the House for final reconciliation and a vote. Trump and the GOP are sacrificing American families — the most vulnerable American families — to give tax cuts to the wealthiest among us. I cannot overstate how dishonorable and harmful this legislation is, and how strongly I condemn it. My vote is NO.
The GOP is forcing this through, but this isn’t over. My Democratic colleagues and I will not stop fighting.
We will not stop showing up, using our power as lawmakers, expressing our outrage, working through the impossible, and organizing around the change we so desperately need. We are facing an anti-democratic, anti-American, and anti-rule-of-law GOP Trifecta — but we can’t give up, we can’t stay silent, because right now, American lives depend on us.
Thank you again for your help, and my team will continue to keep you updated on the bill’s movement, consequences, and next steps. I hope you’ll stay in this fight with us as we head into a critical stretch, you can join us here.
Thank you,
Mad
