** Nancy Pelosi :: Speaker of the House ** The times have found us -- I need you with me.

My friends:

Throughout his time in office, Donald Trump has engaged in behavior that subverts our democratic values and jeopardizes our elections. His reckless decision to call a foreign power for the purpose of getting dirt on a political opponent is unprecedented, unpresidential and a betrayal of the Constitution.

Let me be clear: No. You don't ask foreign governments for help in our elections. That is not right. We will hold this president accountable and end his Administration's gross culture of corruption once and for all.

At the same time, we will continue to legislate For the People. For a free, fair and open internet, we passed the Save The Internet Act to restore vital Net Neutrality protections! For expanding freedom and ending discrimination against LGBTQ Americans, we passed the historic Equality Act! For embracing our immigrant brothers and sisters, we passed the Dream and Promise Act! For the well-being of women, we passed the Paycheck Fairness Act - equal pay for equal work! For the survival of our planet, we passed the Climate Action Now Act! For the success of hard-working men and women, we passed the Raise The Wage Act! For the safety of our communities, we passed commonsense, bipartisan gun violence prevention bills to establish universal background checks! And, we will level the playing field for American patients and taxpayers by lowering the cost of prescription drugs.

But the Grim Reaper Mitch McConnell refuses to take action.

Our fight For the People is one we cannot win alone. I need you. We need you. And this country needs you now more than ever.

The grassroots organizing and engagement one year out are vital to victory in 2020. Keep knocking on doors. Continue registering people to vote. Mail those post cards. Send text messages. Show up at rallies holding Republicans accountable. Participate in phonebanks. Make your voice heard and inspire others to get involved.

In the darkest hours of the American Revolution, Thomas Paine wrote: "The times have found us" - and today they have found us again. We do not place ourselves in the greatness of our Founders - but we do place ourselves in the urgency we face in securing our democracy.

This isn't about politics. It isn't about partisanship - Democrats versus Republicans. It's about patriotism. It's about the sanctity of the Constitution. And it's about the future of our nation.

America cannot afford another four years of a Trump Republican Presidency. Together, we will expand our House Majority, take back the Senate, elect a Democratic president of the United States, and take back state legislatures and governorships. Together, we will honor the vows of our Founders, the sacrifice of our men and women in uniform, and the aspirations of our children.

Are you with me?

Never let up,
