John, did you see Valerie’s message yesterday? We’re officially less than one year out until the 2026 election.

We have a lot to do in these next 12 months — we have to get out there and talk to voters everywhere about building an economy that lifts everyone up, not just the wealthy few. We’ll need to run ads, knock on doors, plant yard signs, make phone calls — and keep showing up, day after day, until we win.

It’s a lot to accomplish, but we can do it with the support of people like you. If you’re able, will you chip in today to help us power the work ahead? Every single dollar makes a difference and brings us closer to victory next November.

This next year is all we have. Let’s make it count.

Begin Forwarded Message from Valerie Foushee:

John,

There’s no feeling quite as heavy as waking up the morning after a tough election when the results didn’t go our way.

The disbelief. The disappointment. The sinking feeling that our country was headed in the wrong direction, and that the progress we’d fought so hard for was suddenly at risk.

One year from now, we’ll wake up after the 2026 midterm election with a chance to turn the page and chart a new course for our nation. A chance to reject Donald Trump’s extreme agenda and the Republican majority fasttracking it in Congress.

There’s a lot at stake regarding the future of our country. And winning won’t be easy.

We have one year to do the work. One year to organize. One year to remind the country what we stand for, and who we’re fighting for.

The deck may be stacked against us, but we can’t afford to wake up the day after next year’s election wishing we had done more. That’s why the work to take back the House — and restore a Congress that works for the American people — starts right now.

Despite Republicans’ nationwide redistricting scheme, despite their efforts to silence voters, despite it all, I know we have what it takes to defend our democracy and take back the House.

I have never backed down from a tough fight, and never will. If you’re not done fighting either, will you chip in $10 or any amount now to help us take back the House and take back our country, one year from now?

A lot will change between now and next year, but with your support, we’ll be ready.

Valerie Foushee
