Friend—President-elect Biden has nominated Rep. Deb Haaland, a 35th-generation New Mexican of Laguna Pueblo affiliation, to be our first-ever Native American Secretary of the Interior. For the first time ever, a Native person would oversee not only the federal government’s management of our lands, water, and wildlife, but its relationships with the 574 federally recognized Tribal Nations. This choice is monumental—and long overdue.

But if we don’t win the Senate on January 5th, Mitch McConnell and his allies could block Haaland’s confirmation—and that of countless other extraordinarily qualified, competent, and historic nominees. Chip in now to take that power away from Mitch by helping win back the Senate on January 5th.

President-elect Biden is making good on his promise to deliver a diverse, seasoned Cabinet that will be ready on Day 1 to repair the damage done by the outgoing administration, while bringing a broad range of life experiences and worldviews to the table.

From the Latino immigrant attorney who developed and implemented DACA (Alejandro Mayorkas, Homeland Security) to the first woman to lead the Treasury Department (Janet Yellen, Treasury) to Rep. Haaland herself, the next Cabinet will boldly respond to issues ranging from COVID-19 and economic crisis to racial injustice and climate change.

The incoming administration is ready to go—but if Mitch remains in control, their ability to get to work remains in jeopardy. Don’t let a Republican Senate hold up the progress we need—chip in $3 now and let’s win back a Democratic majority on January 5th.

Thank you,
