Friend,

It was heartbreaking to witness, in real-time, the desecration of the People's House. Those who attacked the Capitol must be brought to justice and charged for their crimes. But we must also pause and thank the countless men and women who did their jobs and immediately got to work repairing the damage.

In the aftermath of the failed coup attempt, it was the custodial staff who cleaned up the carnage: broken glass, discarded food, blood, and the mountains of trash the violent rioters left behind. It fell upon the shoulders of countless workers to clean up their dirty destruction.

The Collective would like to thank the custodial staff for helping restore the Capitol to its original glory. To join us in our thanks, please take a moment to sign our card. We'll be sending this out to all the workers who had a hand in repairing the Capitol.

It hasn't escaped us the outrageous double standard of white-armed terrorists being able to waltz into the U.S. Capitol while peaceful Black Lives Matter protestors are met with police violence. Those responsible for this injustice must be held accountable.

Our democracy can't survive under two different justice systems. We are fighting to make sure bad actors are dealt the full force of the law.

Collectively, we will win,

The Collective
