John, in a minute, I'm going to ask you to please contribute your very first $5 donation to help flip this seat and send John Fetterman to the U.S. Senate.
Before I do, I want to share one of the main reasons why I'm proud to serve as John's Political Director: His long-standing commitment to working toward ending the racist War on Drugs, and his ongoing fight for marijuana justice + second chances.
I'll start at the beginning. Back in 2016, other Democrats running for Senate in PA were afraid to go bold on the issue of legal weed. Not John. He was a lone voice for full legalization of marijuana, regardless of any political consequences.
Then, in 2018, John *again* chose to make legal weed a key campaign priority in his race for Lt. Governor — something that most other Democrats shy away from to this day. (BTW, he and Governor Wolf went on earn the highest number of votes ever won as a ticket in a Pennsylvania gubernatorial election.)
In 2020, John pressured fellow Democrats nationwide to join his fight for full-on legalization. He penned a blazing op-ed in The Washington Post, and let's just say he didn't mince words…
Here's the big picture, John: John has proven that he is not afraid to stand on the right side of history when it comes to legalizing weed, expunging marijuana records, and releasing all those incarcerated for the plant — even when it has meant standing there alone.
In his current role as Lt. Governor, John has helped establish an expedited review process for pardons for low-level cannabis charges. These pardons have helped scores of deserving Pennsylvanians get their lives back after unjust, racist, and inhumane drug policies ripped them away.
John hasn't had to "evolve" on his core issues like some other politicians have. Because where he stands today is where he's always stood. If that's the kind of leader you want fighting for you, will you chip your first $5 to help elect John to the U.S. Senate, where he'll be one of the loudest voices for legal weed + marijuana justice? I wouldn't ask if it weren't so important.
Thank you so much for your support,
Celeste

Political Director
John Fetterman for U.S. Senate
P.S. John, when people ask me why I'm proud to be in John Fetterman's corner, I tell them this: John has never shied away from the kinds of bold policies that have the power to reimagine what justice looks like in Pennsylvania and our entire country. But sending him to the Senate and flipping this seat blue can only happen with enough people chipping in whatever and whenever they can. If that's you today, please consider sending $5 our way so we can keep up the fight to elect John.
