Hi Friend —

I wanted to take a moment to share some news with you — both
personal and professional.

First, a bit of personal joy. Our family recently welcomed our
first grandchild, a grandson, and my heart is full in a way
that’s hard to put into words! I’m a grandmother! Moments like
this have a way of clarifying everything. They remind me why True
the Vote’s work matters — for our children, for their children,
and for the country they will one day inherit. We cannot fail.

Second, I’m excited to share that we’ve officially launched True
the Vote NOW, our new C4 organization. This step gives us the
ability to engage in ways we simply couldn’t before — to move
faster, speak more directly, and press harder for accountability
and real reform. It opens an important new channel for our work,
and I’m grateful to be stepping into it with you.

That expanded capability matters now more than ever.

This week, I’m in Washington, D.C., meeting with allies and
building momentum. What’s at stake is real. If liberty loses
ground in Congress, hard-won progress will be rolled back almost
immediately. That reality is shaping every conversation I’m
having here, and it underscores just how urgent this work is as
we look toward 2026.

I remember first coming to Washington as an activist in 2009. At
the time, I was green — blissfully unaware of the odyssey ahead.
I experience this city very differently now. There’s a weight, a
darkness. You can sense it almost immediately. But the passion of
history’s call is here, too. Yesterday, instead of heading to a
meeting or my hotel, I went straight to Mount Vernon — to ground
where real patriots walked, to a shared spirit that still lives
within us.

And so, despite the darkness, I’ve come to build on something
that gives me real hope: a small, serious group of people working
quietly and deliberately toward real results. No theatrics. No
posturing. Just focused, determined work to fix what’s broken.

That same seriousness is guiding us as we prepare for a season of
significant growth at True the Vote. Our focus is simple and
unapologetic: empowering citizens to secure election integrity
locally. We are expanding our efforts to equip activists in their
own communities with the tools they need — from registering
eligible voters, to reviewing and challenging voter rolls, to
being trained, mobilized, and ready to work inside the election
process itself. This movement will not be sustained from
Washington. It will be secured by informed, equipped citizens at
the local level.

There is much work to be done, and this season feels urgent. I
feel it deeply.

Thank you for coming on this journey with us. You make this work
possible, and I never take that for granted.

God bless you, and God bless America. Keep the faith. Never quit.

Ever onward —

Catherine
