John,


In 2024, Donald Trump ran on a promise of economic populism, vowing to lower costs and help the working class.


Less than a year later, the verdict is in: Americans were sold snake oil.

His policies have pushed the economy to the brink. Energy bills, healthcare premiums, and grocery prices are skyrocketing.


The average US home buyer is now 59 years old. An entire generation is being locked out of the American Dream, saddled with student loan debt and forced to rent forever while private equity firms buy up our neighborhoods.


Seniors can’t afford their insulin. Americans are losing their jobs en masse. But billionaires? They’re doing better than ever.


This is the consequence of decades of the same old “trickle-down” economics that has rigged the economy to line the pocket of billionaires while families in my district work themselves to the bone just to survive. 


It is time for Democrats to actually fix the rigged economy.


That’s why I am running on a vision where my neighbors don’t just work to survive—but thrive. That means fighting for single-payer universal healthcare, breaking up monopolies that drive costs up, building affordable housing, canceling student debt while making public colleges tuition-free, and cutting our bloated military budget to finally invest in education and our communities.


This is how we fix a rigged system. If you are ready to send a representative to Congress who will bring real solutions to the real problems working people face, I need you with me.


Can you rush a donation of $25, $10, or whatever you can spare during these troubling times to fuel our movement to fix the rigged economy?
