Dear Friends,
Today should be a day of celebration for House Democrats as we join President Biden in promoting the inflation reduction law, welcome two new Members – Congressman-Elect Pat Ryan (NY-19) and Congresswoman-Elect Mary Peltola (AK-AL) — and prepare to kick off Hispanic Heritage Month. But Republicans have just announced a new assault on Americans’ rights and freedoms. Senate Republicans are moving full steam ahead TODAY to introduce a NATIONAL ban on abortion.
To be clear, their ban is what would be in store for ALL 50 STATES if Republicans took control of Congress in the upcoming elections. This is the nightmare scenario – they will NOT succeed. We are winning in November.
TONIGHT: Join me and my special guest Congresswoman Sylvia Garcia from Texas at a special later time for an Emergency Organizing Call to talk about the threats and our response at 6:00 pm PT / 9:00 pm ET. Register here:

As one of the first Latinas elected to represent Texas in Congress, Congresswoman Sylvia Garcia serves on the front lines of our Democracy: fighting to put people over politics and lower costs for families on the Financial Services Committee; and defending the rule of law on the Judiciary Committee, as the first Hispanic to ever serve as an impeachment manager in a presidential impeachment trial and as a trusted advocate for women.
Our Democratic Majorities in Congress are the firewall protecting our freedoms — and even with this latest challenge, we don’t agonize, we organize — and we unionize!
Thank you all for your support. You are our strength and our inspiration. See you tonight. And if you haven’t already, please follow me on Twitter at https://twitter.com/TeamPelosi to get out the word – and get out the vote.
