The entire Democratic agenda should not be dependent on any one Senator. But right now much of it is.

Donations now to key Senate Democratic nominee funds in MO, PA, NC, OH could change that because Republican Senate retirements are boosting our chances to flip these red seats to blue. (Also in WI, especially if Ron Johnson retires.)

Nominee funds go to the Democrat who wins the nomination in each state, giving the nominees an immediate infusion of cash at one of the most critical times in the campaign.

Donate today to the Senate Democratic nominee funds for MO, PA, NC, OH, and WI. (Make these races a priority by donating monthly here.)

Here are a few of the bills passed by the House that are stuck in the Senate. (This doesn't even include President Biden's American Jobs Plan because it hasn't been drafted into an actual bill yet, or a $15 minimum wage or DC statehood -- two bills the House has yet to pass.)

For the People Act. A sweeping anti-corruption and government ethics package to protect our democracy, stop voter suppression, end partisan gerrymandering, and reform campaign finance.

The American Dream and Promise Act. Creates a pathway to citizenship for millions of Dreamers.

Remove deadline for the Equal Rights Amendment. Allows Congress to ratify the ERA which states, in part, "Equality of rights under the law shall not be denied or abridged by the United States or by any State on account of sex."

Equality Act. Extends existing civil rights protections to LGBTQ Americans. It prohibits discrimination on the basis of sex, sexual orientation, and gender identity.

George Floyd Justice in Policing Act. This policing reform bill bolsters police accountability and prevents problem officers from moving from jurisdiction to jurisdiction.

Violence Against Women Act. This law expired in 2018 after Democrats and Republicans could not agree on changes to make before re-upping it. It is to reduce domestic and sexual violence against women.

Bipartisan Background Checks Act. This bill would expand background checks on individuals seeking to purchase or transfer firearms.

Enhanced Background Checks Act. The Enhanced Background Checks Act of 2021 would close the "Charleston loophole," a gap in federal law that lets gun sales proceed without a completed background check if three businesses days have passed. It is linked to a shooting in 2015 in Charleston, South Carolina, where a white supremacist used the loophole to obtain firearms he used to kill nine Black people during a Bible study at Mother Emanuel AME Church.

These bills and more are too important to be dependent on one senator.

Donate today to key Senate Democratic nominee funds covering races that could flip red seats blue and expand Dem's majority in the Senate. (Donate monthly here.)

Thanks for being a bold progressive.
