It’s been a big few weeks at the Raskin home in Maryland. First, Congressman Jamie Raskin's new book on the Jan 6 insurrection hit store shelves. (Watch our Zoom chat with him last night here and order his book here.)

Now, President Biden just nominated Sarah Bloom Raskin for the top job overseeing banks and climate policy at the Federal Reserve. How big a deal is this?

Politico: "Sarah Bloom Raskin would mean a tougher stance toward Wall Street and a much bigger focus on climate change at the Fed."

Axios: "Biden is giving progressive senators like Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.) a policy and personnel win on a position about which they care deeply."

Elizabeth Warren: "Sarah Bloom Raskin is a tough and thoughtful financial regulator with decades of experience at the state and federal level. In the important role of Vice Chair for Supervision, she brings a commitment to protect the American people that has been sorely missing from the Fed Board for years."

Climate leader Senator Sheldon Whitehouse (D-RI): "This is good news. Sarah Bloom Raskin really gets it on climate."

The Senate confirmed Sarah twice to other powerful government jobs. Call Sens. Bob Casey and Pat Toomey to tell them you support confirming Sarah Bloom Raskin for this top position at the Fed -- click here for numbers and a script.

Months ago, our sister org the Progressive Change Institute recommended Sarah as one of our top staffing choices to the Biden administration. Many others we recommended have also been appointed to key positions including Deb Haaland as Interior Secretary and Lina Khan is Chair of the Federal Trade Commission.

Donate here to help the Progressive Change Institute continue this behind-the-scenes work to place awesome progressives like Deb Haaland, Lina Khan, and Sarah Bloom Raskin in the Administration. Donations are tax deductible.

Thanks for being a bold progressive.
