I wanted to thank you for your support during our July fundraising deadline. With less than 100 days away from the November election, contributions from grassroots supporters like you mean we are able to set up resources nationwide for Democrats in really tough races against dark money-backed extremists.
As we gear up for the August recess and the full height of campaign season, I’m proud of the bills we’ve been able to push through the Democratic House in the last few weeks.
CHIPS Act— I’m an original cosponsor on this bill which not only creates more jobs in semiconductor manufacturing, but increases our competitiveness on the global stage in manufacturing and improves our national security.
Respect for Marriage Act— I supported this measure to codify marriage equality into federal law because, when they overturned Roe v. Wade, the Supreme Court made it clear this was one of the next things on the chopping block.
Right to Contraception Act— I helped lead the charge on this bill which like the Respect for Marriage Act, is in jeopardy with the Trump-stacked Supreme Court. It’s coupled with our effort to codify reproductive rights and protect women who travel across state lines to get the health care they need.
Assault weapon ban— Since we passed the first gun violence prevention measure in decades into law this summer, Democrats have continued to fight the gun violence epidemic. This bill bans the sale of semi-automatic weapons and large capacity magazines—weapons of war—to individuals.
And more!
While we’ve made progress by passing these bills in the house, they need to pass in the Senate to be codified into law and that’s a much bigger hurdle with the chamber split.
That’s why getting record high turnout and winning big in November is imperative. Republicans refuse to do the work for the American people. So thank you for standing with me in these final months.
