[1]Alessandra Biaggi - Democrat for Congress

Friends -

In just a moment, I’m going to ask you to make a contribution to my campaign for Congress.

I’ll explain why this request is so important in just a minute, but if you’re ready to add your support now — of $3 or anything you can — please use this link:

Here’s the truth: Since we launched our campaign against Sean Patrick Maloney on Tuesday morning, one of the questions I’ve been asked most is why I’m running.

It’s a fair question, for sure. Let me explain.

When I first ran for State Senate in 2018 against a seven-term fake Democrat and leader of the New York political machine, people thought I didn’t stand a chance.

I looked at leadership across the state, I didn’t see myself being represented by anyone. We didn’t have the kind of elected officials who truly understood what our communities needed, or what they deserved.

That’s why I decided to run — and I never shied away from the fight.

He had more money, more big endorsements, and the entire corporate establishment of New York state politics backing him. What he didn’t have was you, the people.

We fought and we won that race, and I’m so proud of the progress that our movement has made in New York since then. We’ve fought to make legal abortion the law of the land, and passed important tenant protection laws and landmark climate legislation.

Now, I’m taking our fight to Congress — because I see the same lack of representation in Washington today that I saw in Albany then.

Right now, across the country, there is a wave of young progressive leaders eager to step up and take bold, transformative action on the issues that define our time — combating the climate crisis, protecting abortion rights, passing gun safety legislation, guaranteeing health care as a human right, and so much more.

These are basic, popular, winning issues that we’re simply not moving fast enough on, and that’s thanks in large part to the current Democratic leadership.

That Democratic leadership includes my opponent, Sean Patrick Maloney.

Democrats control the House, the Senate, and the White House. We have all the power we need to do everything that we want, it’s simply a matter of political courage — something Sean Patrick Maloney entirely lacks.

It’s not enough just to vote blue and call it a day until the next election season rolls around. We need to elect bold, progressive leaders with the vision, the urgency, and yes — the courage — to get done what needs to be done.

That’s why I’m running for Congress.

I know that this race is not going to be easy — this time, we aren’t going to be able to take the special interests by surprise. They already know what we’re capable of when we stand together, and they’re going to do and spend whatever it takes to try and stop us.

Can you make a contribution to our campaign for Congress? Your support in these early stages of this primary is so critically important to our success.
