Friend, until this week, I believed there might still be a handful of issues that transcended partisan politics. That is until 41 US Senators voted to block a bill that would provide lifesaving health care for 3.5 million veterans exposed to toxic burn pits, Agent Orange, nuclear exposure, and contaminated water.
I can think of no better example of the toxicity and brokenness of our politics. We know there are a lot of political email lists out there and your inbox will probably get flooded this weekend with disingenuous pleas for cash and the kind of guilt-trips that just make you feel worse about the state of our world. This is not that.
Friend, New Politics is building a movement to revitalize democracy itself and we need you to be there with us. Whether it’s through a contribution, nominating someone who you believe could make an impact, or by simply helping us spread the word about our mission. We need you.
Until next time,
Gabe
