John,

Wow -- we did it!!

I am laughing and crying all at the same time about what we just accomplished.

We waited four painful years for this opportunity. And thanks to our resilience and hard work -- especially in recent weeks-- I'm more hopeful for what lies ahead.

Finally, we can rally around the issues that matter most to us: equal access to life-saving medicines, saving our planet, trans rights, police reform, immigration rights, and more.

Ahhhhh, I can’t really believe it, John.

Looking ahead: there’s going to be much work to be done, and we’re going to need you every step of the way. Over the next few weeks, we’ll need to fight like hell to protect our communities against violence and retribution from a furious, desperate Trump administration. And beyond that, we’ll be working overtime to push a Biden administration to start reforming the racist and discriminatory structures of our societies and undoing the horrific damage to our democracy.

So stay tuned for actions in the coming days to protect the results, stand up to a desperate Republican lame-duck Congress, and fight for a progressive Biden cabinet.

But before we go full speed ahead, 2020 continues to remind us that it’s important we celebrate our wins and the things that give us hope.

So if you’re able, join an action near you to celebrate, protest, protect and plan.
