Johh,

The GOP's shutdown is over…but let's be clear: this never needed to happen.

Millions of Americans paid the price while Republicans played politics. Federal workers were furloughed, families missed paychecks, vital services stopped cold, and our economy took a massive hit.

This was a crisis by design, engineered by GOP extremists who put politics over people. And the damage is real:

* Over 1.3 million federal workers were forced out of work or made to work without pay
* Billions of dollars in economic productivity were lost, money our communities will never get back
* Families nationwide faced missed mortgage payments, delayed childcare, and canceled medical care
* Small businesses that rely on federal contracts took devastating hits

America's credibility was dragged through the mud, all for a partisan stunt. Let's be clear, Johh: Republican "leadership" is a joke — and nobody's laughing.

You need to know that I voted NO every single step of the way, because not once did the GOP put forward a plan that actually protected Americans' health care.

Every so-called "solution" they offered would have ripped away coverage, raised costs, and left Colorado families paying the price. The truth is, their deal doesn't solve anything — it just makes it harder for people to get the care they need.

We need leaders who fight for Americans, not for chaos. That's why I'm doing everything I can to fight back and to ensure we have the resources needed to take back our Democratic House majority. Undoing the GOP's damage to this country is going to take a while. The first step is to make sure it never happens again.

If you're ready to get our government working for the people again, not against them, chip in anything you can to help me strengthen this campaign and win back the House. >> [link removed]

Thank you,
