Friend,
In the course of my public service, I’ve been an impeachment manager who prosecuted a corrupt president. I’ve represented the incredible people of Orlando in Congress with pride.
But before all that, I was a Black girl who grew up poor in the South. I went to segregated schools. I could only dream of a seat at the table in politics – or even just being in the room. Nearly every day, I think about the fact that I am a descendant of slaves who knew that they would not make it, but dreamed and prayed that one day I would.
I made it – and I stand on the shoulders of giants who fought and shed blood and tears before me. Here’s what I see: a modern-day Republican Party that grows more extreme and dangerous by the day. So-called leaders like Mitch McConnell, Marco Rubio and Kevin McCarthy.They are not fit for the offices they hold.
Right now, I am considering my next moves in public service. But here’s what I know for sure: The Republican Party will throw whatever they can at us – and to fight, to win, I need you. Can I count on you to make a grassroots contribution of $5, straight from the heart, to help me stop the GOP in Florida?

I'll be reporting back with more soon. In the meantime, friend, please know I'm incredibly grateful to have you on my team.
