Happy 2020, John! I hope
everyone’s year is off to a good start. I am very happy to report
that thanks to your support, we’ve hit our end-of-year goal for
2019 and are ready to start the New Year strong.
Despite a lot of challenges, we had some truly major
victories in 2019.
We successfully stood up for ordinary Americans by
passing the FAIR Act in the House. This legislation, which I have
sponsored every session since I have been in Congress, protects
consumers and workers by prohibiting businesses and employers
from strong-arming workers and employees into forced arbitration.
Forced arbitration is a privatized for-profit dispute resolution
process that almost always favors the business or employer at the
expense of the little guy, who is in a better position when there
is an option to go through the courts.
A comprehensive 3000-word article from Vox on the bill
applauded it as a “groundbreaking bill that would restore rights
to millions” and the hard effort it took to pass, saying:
“Pushing it through the House was a feat in its own right.
Members of Congress have been trying for years to outlaw forced
arbitration in various scenarios [...] none have ever gotten
through the House.”
We also led the charge on holding Donald Trump
accountable. I was the first member of the Georgia delegation to
call for impeachment hearings, and some of my comments got so
much positive attention that NowThis used them as inspiration for
a short viral video on the civil rights case for impeaching
Donald Trump.
Speaking of the impeachment hearings, progressive media
site “Crooks and Liars” put a spotlight on my rebuttal to
Congressman Matt Gaetz for their “Good Guy Award.” This is yet
another example of our work leading the way in countering false
and misleading narratives from Trump and his allies.
And there’s so much more we did in 2019: from fighting
the militarization of police, to protecting our environment from
coal ash, to advocating for communities being overrun by huge
conglomerates & billionaire bigshots who are using the Trump tax
cuts to push poor and middle-class Americans out of their
historical neighborhoods.
Now it’s time to look forward to 2020, but I can’t do it
without you John.
All the progress we made in 2019, and everything we are
going to accomplish in 2020 relies on a strong grassroots
movement made up of everyday Georgians and Americans like you,
John. And because this is a major
election year, we are going to need all hands on deck to make
sure Georgia Democrats can fight for our issues while also
winning elections. That’s why I’m asking you to consider making a
grassroots donation to my campaign so we can start 2020 strong
and keep fighting for our priorities. Will you help?
