In a few
moments, [ [link removed] ]I am going to ask you to make a contribution toward our fight
in Congress to go bigger, bolder, and faster so Democrats deliver for the
people that delivered us the House, the Senate, and the White House. But
first, I wanted to explain why this work is so important.

On Tuesday, infrastructure talks between President Biden and a group of
Republicans led by West Virginia Senator Shelley Moore Capito collapsed. I
wish I could say I was surprised, but I'm not. 

Earlier this spring, zero Republican senators voted for the American
Rescue Plan — not even one. Five weeks ago, Senate Minority Leader Mitch
McConnell stated that 100% of his focus was stopping the Biden
administration. Three weeks ago, the GOP delivered their first
counteroffer on President Biden's sweeping and necessary infrastructure
plan — it was an embarrassing counter, just 10% of the President's total
proposal. 

And as I told Rachel Maddow earlier this week, it is once again very clear
that Republicans do not want to come along. That is why I'm concerned that
we're now negotiating with a different group of Republican senators —
hoping to magically get a deal that meets the scale of the crises we face.
Look: we can wait another week, we can negotiate with another Republican
senator or two — but the results won't be any different. Republicans have
no interest in doing anything that the people desperately need or want.
Their only interest is obstructing our progress.

President Biden's American Jobs Plan and American Families Plan — in
addition to the critically necessary For the People Act — are
overwhelmingly popular among voters across party lines, just like the
American Rescue Plan was. The voters who turned out in massive numbers in
the general election and Georgia runoff elections don't agree with Senator
Joe Manchin on keeping the filibuster in place, or weakening our proposals
in order to get the support of a senator from a Republican party that
wants to stop us at every turn. They just want us to go big, go bold, and
go fast on the change we promised them. They want results — and we must
deliver them. Full stop. 



[ [link removed] ]If you agree with me that the president and Congressional Democrats
should do what we did on the $1.9 trillion COVID relief package — go it
ALONE — in order to pass the For the People Act and the transformational
infrastructure, jobs, and families plan, contribute $3 or
more toward our fight to end the filibuster and pass critical pieces of
legislation.

[ [link removed] ]Contribute $3



No more negotiating. No more delays. Let's get this critical work done —
together.

In solidarity,

Pramila
