As we welcome this New Year together, my heart is filled with gratitude for each and every one of you and with confidence that 2026 will be shaped by your kindness, resilience, generosity and hope for a brighter future. More than ever, I am inspired and proud to work alongside you, grounded by our shared belief in our responsibility to ensure that America’s best days are yet to come and our shared values For The People. From my beautiful and wondrous San Francisco to every corner of our beloved nation, it is the spirit of the American people — workers, families, students, veterans, dreamers and doers — that inspires me most and that truly makes America great.

Facing unimagined darkness throughout 2025, you — our amazing Volunteers in Politics — beamed a light to encourage and empower the American people to fight for our values and for the country that we love. Your raised voices, your relentless organizing and your focused advocacy to save our health care and defend our Democracy fueled our great victories For The People this past November and created the momentum that we need to turn the tide for our country in 2026.

My faith in the goodness of the American people that you embody gives me hope in our ability to course correct and bring about a future that is worthy of the vision of our Founders, the service and sacrifice of our men and women in uniform and the dreams and aspirations of our children.

With joy and confidence in our collective power, our mission for 2026 is crystal clear: we must and we will take back the House Majority — For The People and For The Children. With Hakeem Jeffries serving as Speaker of the House for all Americans, we will write a new chapter for our country that reflects the very best of who we are, and that ensures that compassion, dignity, fairness and freedom guide our path toward becoming the more perfect union that our Constitution calls upon us to create. Thank you for being the heart and soul of our movement For The People. From my family to yours: Happy New Year!
