John xxxxxx,

There’s no doubt that things are a mess right now. COVID-19 cases and deaths continue to rise while this lame duck administration sits on their hands and President Trump is still lying and sharing debunked claims that the 2020 election was a fraud.

Small businesses and workers are still struggling, unemployment is still much too high and our families are hurting with the tragic loss of loved ones heading into the holidays.

But there is a ray of hope as we look ahead toward the new year: a new president and well-qualified administration that is preparing to tackle this pandemic head-on, get a safe vaccine into the hands of tens, if not, hundreds of millions, restore our economy, and undo so much of the damage that was done over the past four years. And in Congress, I’m ready to continue to fight for the least, the lost and the left behind.

Now that December is here, I want to know what issues are top of mind for you. We face numerous challenges heading into 2021, but we are resilient, and I know we will overcome them together.

If you have a minute, can you take my quick issue survey to let me know what you’re most concerned about and would like to see me focus on in Congress in the new year? We have a lot of work to do, and I want to know where your head is at so I can best fight for you.

Thank you for sounding off and making your voice heard. The last four years have been incredibly difficult, but with Trump out of office, we’re going to have a real opportunity to make a difference. I look forward to doing that together.

Keep the faith,

— Hakeem
