Hi John, it's Morgan.
Moments after I arrived in Cleveland yesterday, an incredibly frustrating
news alert popped up on my phone:
[ [link removed] ]CNN Headline: Manchin upends Democrats' push to enact Biden's agenda
this month, calling for a pause on $3.5 trillion bill.
Let me be very clear: There is no time to "pause." We are demanding change
now.
The package that Senator Joe Manchin refuses to support would invest
millions of dollars in America’s crumbling infrastructure. Just think of
the impact those resources would have right here in Cleveland, which was
recently named the poorest city in the entire United States.
This is why we need progressive representatives in Congress now. If
Congress is unable to pass the reconciliation package, we will lose a huge
opportunity to pass key legislation. Vulnerable families and communities
will bear the brunt of this loss.
The Child Tax Credit that has already saved three million children from
falling below the poverty line is at stake. Expanding educational
opportunity through universal Pre-K is at stake. Meeting the climate
crisis with urgency through clean energy and technology investment is at
stake. Lowering health care costs with Medicare expansion is at stake.
This isn’t a small list, but one senator can upend everything that
advocates, progressive lawmakers, and families have been fighting for.
Look, Senator Manchin is a corporate-backed politician who doesn’t
understand the urgency of voting YES on a widely-supported, reconciliation
package.
But I do, John. Send me to the
U.S. Senate, and I will be the deciding YES vote on essential proposals
like this one.
And not only that — I’ll be the deciding YES vote on other urgent changes
that we desperately need, like guaranteeing voting rights for Black people
and abolishing the filibuster.
[ [link removed] ]If you’re in a place to do so, can you please make a donation of
$5 or more to help send me to the United States Senate? As
your Democratic senator from Ohio, I will always vote on the side of the
people.

Thank you so much for your support.
More soon,
Morgan
