Barely two days after President Biden proposed a "billionaire’s tax" that
would finally make the ultra-rich pay their fair share of taxes --
Sen. Joe Manchin threw cold water on it.

Manchin called Biden's tax plan "a tough one." It’s not a tough one. It's
an obvious one. Americans are overwhelmingly enthusiastic about making
billionaires pay their fair share.

Winning just one more Senate seat in November would end Joe Manchin's veto
over massively popular Democratic priorities such as a billionaire's tax.
We have 4 progressive candidates who can do the job.

[ [link removed] ]Can you chip in $4 to 4 bold progressive U.S. Senate candidates in
Wisconsin, Missouri, Ohio, and Kentucky whose victories would end Joe
Manchin's veto? Donations before tomorrow's end-of-quarter fundraising
deadline will be particularly impactful.

Meet 4 outstanding progressive candidates running to flip red U.S. Senate
seats. Two are running in open races in swing states where Republicans are
retiring. All 4 pledge they would be the 49th and 50th vote for reforming
the filibuster and protecting voting rights. NONE accept corporate
campaign money -- so grassroots support means everything.

Lt. Gov. Mandela Barnes (WI) - Elizabeth Warren writes, "A new poll showed
my friend Mandela Barnes tied 43-43 with Ron Johnson. We can win this."
She calls this "one of our best chances to expand our Senate
majority." Mandela attended our PCCC candidate training before winning
statewide in 2018, and he’s a longtime progressive movement ally. Ron
Johnson is one of the worst Republicans in the Senate.

Lucas Kunce (MO) – HuffPost reported "Marine Veteran Launches Missouri
Senate Bid After Roy Blunt Retirement' and called Lucas Kunce "a crusader
against corporate consolidation." He has led all Democratic and Republican
candidates in fundraising and has become a fixture on MSNBC, using his
veteran cred to point out that Joe Manchin supported trillions in military
build up abroad while obstructing child care, lower-price prescriptions,
and keeping millions of kids out of poverty here at home. We’re helping
this frontrunner flip a Senate seat in a red state!

Morgan Harper (OH) - Her campaign launch got covered everywhere from the
New York Times to Cleveland Plain Dealer. Morgan’s bold platform is
consistent with her record at the CFPB of fighting corporations that
ripped off consumers and her work with Lucas Kunce to fight monopolies.
This is an open seat after a Republican retirement. Morgan is uniquely
able to win the general election in a state that has trended red by
bringing together Black voters, women, young voters, and independents.

Charles Booker (KY) - He nearly defeated the establishment pick for Senate
in 2020 due to tremendous grassroots support. Now, he’s the frontrunner to
face Senator Rand Paul. Elizabeth Warren says, "This is a man who has
lived the struggles other politicians just talk about. He grew up in one
of the poorest zip codes in Kentucky. He experienced the pain of poverty
firsthand, and saw his mom skip meals just so he could have enough. He’s
been homeless, and had to ration his insulin because he couldn’t afford
the medication he needed as a Type 1 diabetic. Now, he’s running to lift
up working families in Kentucky and beyond."

These bold progressive Senate candidates are ready to fight for everyday
people -- not billionaires. And they don't take corporate donations -- so
grassroots support means everything.

[ [link removed] ]Please help 4 bold progressive U.S. Senate candidates get across the
finish line by contributing $4 before the end-of-quarter fundraising
deadline tomorrow.

Thanks for being a bold progressive.
