John, I've always
promised to organize and legislate for St. Louis and communities like it.

That's why Rep. Jamaal Bowman and I introduced a resolution to make power
a public utility and guarantee basic utility services to everyone in our
country. [ [link removed] ]If you're ready for an energy revolution, make a donation of
any amount today so we can continue pushing for the transformative changes
we need to ensure everyone has access to public, affordable utilities.

I know firsthand the costs and challenges that can come with flipping on a
light switch, connecting to the internet, turning up the heat, or
expecting clean water.

I've moved because of a $1,800 a month utility bill.

I've been faced with the impossible choice of keeping on the heat during
the winter or buying groceries.

And I remember the day when the outlet that powered an electric space
heater started shooting out flames and nearly burned down my 2-year-old
baby's room — all because I couldn't afford the gas bill. Public power
could — and should — have prevented this.

This isn't by accident,
John. Most of our energy
systems are owned by private investors which means they are designed to
profit off of so much of what we rely on to stay alive — everything from
heat to electricity. The current structure explicitly prioritizes profits
over people, and disproportionately impacts low-income and Black and brown
families — but it doesn't need to be this way.

If we work together, this people-powered movement can bring about an
energy revolution and create a future where our energy system is public,
fossil-free, and affordable to all.



I'm ready to get to work to make this legislation a reality, but I need
your help to power this fight ahead. [ [link removed] ]John,
will you make a donation of
$5 or more today to support our work to ensure public power
and grow our movement for bold, transformative change?

[ [link removed] ]Contribute $5



Thank you,
Cori
