Did you see Ilhan’s note yesterday, John?

From holding this administration accountable to rooting out corruption in
Washington, she is doing everything she can to deliver the progressive
agenda to the American people.

But every day, Ilhan and other congresswomen of color are targeted by the
far-right in racist, sexist, and Islamophobic attacks.

John,

Last year, we elected the youngest, most diverse Congress in the history
of our nation.

Taking the oath of office alongside all these incredible women was one of
the most profoundly impactful moments of my life. I loved getting to be a
part of the bold wave of progressives ready to shake up Washington. I
cherished the moment when I -- along with my sisters in the Squad -- made
a promise to protect our country and fight for all of its people.

But as I write this today, my sisters and I in Congress have faced more
right-wing attacks than I can count.

We have had insults hurled at us. We’ve had lies smeared. We’ve had the
President of the United States threaten our safety, question our
citizenship, and dismiss our loyalty to this country we love.

Trump’s White House advisor, Stephen Miller, is a known white nationalist
who supports policies praised by Hitler and cites websites like Breitbart
and Infowars. The man who said he’d “put a bullet in my skull” just pled
guilty to threatening to kill me. We’ve constantly felt the meteors of
racism, sexism, and Islamophobia in every move we make.

But still we rise.

We knew the fights for inclusive, progressive change wouldn’t be easy. But
the things worth fighting for never are.

And every step of the way, DFA members have defended us from attacks,
supported us in hard times, and celebrated with us during victories. I’m
forever grateful knowing I have this team to back me up.

That’s why I’m hoping I can count on you to step up once again and show
your support by splitting
$5 or
more between DFA and my campaign. Together, we won’t back down from the
tough fights and elect even MORE progressive women of color to join the
Squad.

I will continue doing whatever it takes to pass our progressive agenda and
make positive change for every community in this country -- from making
Medicare for All a reality to tackling the climate crisis to finally
raising the minimum wage.

Thanks for standing by me in our fight.

Ilhan
