[ [link removed] ]The Whiteboard at Truth to Power
John,
Welcome back to The Whiteboard, our monthly newsletter where we show you
what Truth to Power endorsed candidates have been up to. This issue, we’re
rewinding a bit and looking back at all the amazing work our endorsed
candidates have worked on these past few months.
First up, Rep. Mondaire Jones' response to Joe Manchin’s refusal to vote
for the Build Back Better Act. Manchin’s decision to squash landmark
legislation which would drive economic growth, drastically lower the cost
of prescription drugs, make childcare more affordable, and invest in clean
energy, is exactly why we need more progressive champions in Congress.
Katie Porter needs allies who will fight for families, not corporate
special interests. [ [link removed] ]If you’re with us, consider chipping in to help more
Katie Porter-endorsed candidates get elected.

Higher household costs, expensive medications, and
climate catastrophe.
Coal would have been a lot easier.
Next: Leaning into his past as an educator, Rep. Jamaal Bowman introduced
legislation to support schools teaching the history of African-Americans.
This legislation would invest $10 million over 5 years in the National
Museum of African American History and Culture to support African American
history education programs available for students, parents, and educators.

[ [link removed] ]@jamaalbowmanny In today’s current education system our history is
being challenged and this ignorance to the truth
has left many students subject to dishonest
education.
That is why today I introduced the African American
History Act to #tellthetruth.
Finally, Rep. Porter continued to uplift the stories of millions of women
who had to leave the workforce due to COVID-19. Rep. Porter has been
leading the fight to get women back in the workforce. Without them, our
whole economy is weakened.

[ [link removed] ]@katieporteroc We won't have a strong economy without women in it.
COVID-19 has forced millions of women to scale back
their careers, which is a direct threat to our
long-term economic recovery. The longer we wait to
take action, the more we will set our workforce
back.

candidates—who will work just as hard to fight for progressive legislation
for working people and families—please consider making a donation today.
Please stay safe and healthy this holiday season, and remember, all of
this great work was accomplished thanks to the support from folks like
you!
In gratitude,
