Dear friend,
I've spent the past 14 years fighting GOP extremism in the House. But now, it's worse than ever.
Kevin McCarthy has spent every day since the election trying to buy off the most extreme members of his caucus in a desperate attempt to win 218 votes for Speaker.
They're demanding veto power over any bill coming to the House, and pledges to shut down the governmebnt and default on the national debt if they don't get what they want. They want to be able to defund the FBI and launch show trials based on conspriacy theories. And they want to make sure the next Congress has MORE extremists, not fewer.
No matter who the next Speaker is, it's clear that Matt Gaetz and Lauren Boebert will be running the House for the next two years. I'm ready to fight their extremism, but I need to know you have my back.
The Republican majority is very, very narrow and the fight to win back our majority in 2024 has already begun. Can you chip in and help me win re-election and elect Democrats up and down the ballot this year in Virginia, and in 2024?
