John,
Yesterday, I had the honor of presiding over the House Floor for the first time.
When I rose up on that podium — I wasn’t alone. I brought with me this movement’s hopes, dreams, and demands of our elected leaders.
I rose up for those who’ve survived police violence.
Who’ve survived abuse.
Who’ve survived being unhoused.
Who’ve survived poverty.
Together, WE—all of us—presided over the House Floor.
I don’t take your support for granted, John. It’s because of you and everyone in this movement that we’re able to take on big fights in Congress and make history every day legislating for the transformative policies our country needs.
That’s why I plan on making phone calls to thank some of you individually for making a donation leading up to our critical FEC end-of-quarter fundraising deadline on June 30th. Every dollar you give helps make sure we can continue leading a people-powered revolution in Congress.

John, I know how important it is to put our voices and stories at the center of our work in Congress because I understand firsthand the impact it has on families like mine and yours.
I’ve been evicted, unhoused, and lived in a car with my two babies.
I’ve been on the ground brutalized by police violence.
And I’m determined to make sure no one else has to go through these challenges alone. So when I say this fight is personal for me — I mean it.
I’m beyond proud of all the hard work you and everyone in this movement has put in to make moments like yesterday possible. But I know that there’s still so much more we need to do to continue pushing for the radical change we need.
That’s why it’s important our team reaches our FEC end-of-quarter fundraising goal next week. Right now, we’re a little bit behind from where we estimated we’d be by now.
Will you make a donation today to help us catch up on our fundraising and show everyone the power of this grassroots movement? I might even give you a phone call later to say thank you.
Your congresswoman loves you,
Cori
