Friend,
Congress passed the American Rescue Plan Act last week, a $1.9 trillion stimulus package that will provide lifesaving relief to millions of Americans and businesses.
It passed, despite the best efforts of Republicans like Senator Ron Johnson (WI).
After spending the last few months willfully spreading disinformation on COVID, the 2020 election results, and the January Capitol riots, Johnson turned his attention to relief obstruction, forcing the Senate to waste precious time with a stunt (a forced 10-hour reading of the entire bill) whose only purpose was to delay relief for Americans.
A senator who is an apologist for insurrectionists that stormed the Capitol, and who purposely gummed up the works for a COVID relief bill, is exactly the type of elected official we need to defeat in 2022.
So today, in honor of Ron Johnson and his impending reelection campaign in 2022, we're officially launching Green Mountain PAC's "Expand the Senate Majority Fund." Donate today to help Democratic incumbents and challengers defeat Republican obstructionists like Johnson and expand the Democratic Senate majority in 2022.
Thank you for your help.
Sincerely,
Patrick Leahy
U.S. Senator
