Hi John, Cory here.
I’m bumping this message from the other day, because two days from now we have a chance to strip Joe Manchin of his power in the Senate, and I need your help.
We’ve been saying it for months: The fastest way to shut Manchin down is to put progressives in control of the Senate swing vote.
You and I can do that by electing Charles Booker and Malcolm Kenyatta this Tuesday.
In fact, we have six BNC candidates on the ballot May 17th in four states. But to be candid, fundraising has been slow this month. With Jessica Cisneros’ run-off against Henry Cuellar coming up on the 24th, we urgently need to catch up on our goal.
So I’m asking you, John, can you rush a contribution in any amount to Brand New Congress before midnight? [[link removed]]

More soon,
- Cory from the Comms team

Subject: What is the point of Joe Manchin?
John -- Joe Manchin is at it AGAIN.
For the second time in as many months, Joe Manchin caucused with Mitch McConnell to stop the Senate from protecting abortion rights.
Bernie took to Twitter after the vote to ask the burning question: If you can’t stand for the most basic principles the Democratic party allegedly stands for, why are you caucusing with Democrats at all?

Honestly, with Democrats like Joe Manchin, who needs Republicans?
As BNC candidate Malcolm Kenyatta often says, “If you want to change the Senate, you have to change the Senators.”
Charles Booker and Malcolm Kenyatta are both up for primary election this Tuesday, May 17th. Both of them are running for seats currently held by Republicans.
When we flip those seats, the Senate swing vote belongs to progressives – and Joe Manchin’s power trip gets shut down.
If you want to strip Joe Manchin of his power, we need your help. Can you pitch in $25 today to turn out the vote in Kentucky and Pennsylvania this Tuesday and take the Senate swing vote out of Manchin’s control? [[link removed]]
As long as Joe Manchin controls the agenda, he’s an obstacle to the progress we are fighting for – climate action, healthcare, living wages, voting rights, reproductive rights, COVID relief, and so much more.
Like BNC, our Senate candidates support abolishing the filibuster and expanding the court to remove these roadblocks to progress.
We need to send Charles and Malcolm to the Senate so we can get some real work done.
It is vital in 2022 that we not only keep the Senate Majority out of Mitch McConnell’s hands, but that we elect candidates who are actually committed to justice and opportunity for all. Can we count on your contribution to elect bold progressives to fight for us? [[link removed]]

Since 2016 BNC has led the way in advancing popular policies like Medicare for All and the Green New Deal. We invest EARLY to help grassroots candidates succeed. We recruited and elected AOC in 2018 and Cori Bush in 2020 alongside Jamaal Bowman and Rashida Tliab. And we have our first win of 2022: Rep. Sheila Cherfilus-McCormick won her primary by FIVE votes thanks to BNC.
We have elections from now until November, and our candidates are counting on your support. Pitch in today and join us as we take over Congress and return power to the people.
