Hi John,

[Note: the end of the month is in 2 days, and we need to raise $4,746 before then in order to invest in the field, data, and comms that we need to win this campaign. Please give $7 now — or whatever you can afford — because the clock is ticking. Thank you!]

Mitt Romney tweeted a picture of himself dressed as a TV character giving a box of chocolates to Kyrsten Sinema, who sits on a bright orange couch in a pink room. His tweet read, “Biscuits with the boss.”

Looking at it really does remind you of the Capitol in The Hunger Games, where wealthy, out-of-touch elites gorge themselves on fine food and ridiculous clothing while the masses starve.

The establishment is laughing at us.

They look at activists for Medicare for All and they laugh.

They look at activists for the Green New Deal — or as Nancy Pelosi called it, “the green dream or whatever" — and they laugh.

They look at activists calling for the end of homelessness and they laugh and call us naive.

Well, you know what? I’m not laughing. I’m looking at a future of mass homelessness, mass climate death, and mass hunger, and I’m scared. I’m scared of what will happen if we continue with business as usual. My campaign for Congress is a bold break from business as usual, so I need your help to win.

People like Sinema and Manchin are just symptoms of a much larger problem. They’re the fall guys, or the “rotating villain,” for the entire Democratic Party right now.

Democratic leadership managed to bail out Wall Street. You’re telling me Biden, Schumer, and Pelosi — 3 of the most powerful people in the world — can’t get real help on climate, hunger, and homelessness through Congress? I don’t think so.

We need working-class fighters in Congress who will stand up to leadership — Republican and Democratic — and fight for what’s right. I stand for Medicare for All, housing for all, and an end to fossil fuels by 2030. Please donate now to help me fight for those policies in Congress:
