Saturday, I was sworn in as the new Democratic Leader.

Today, I promise you this: House Democrats will always fight for you and your family.

But right now, I’m humbly asking you to fight with us.

After Republicans’ historically dysfunctional start, everyone will be watching to see what kind of fundraising numbers Democrats post. The support you show in my first days as Leader is essential to reclaiming the House for Democrats so we can continue to deliver For The People. Yadira Caraveo and I are asking: Will you rush $25 to make this a historic fundraising period for Democrats? >>

Here’s the deal:

Speaker McCarthy is rushing to outraise us to prove that we don’t have what it takes to reclaim the Majority.

We’re going to prove him absolutely wrong, John.

Which is why we need a powerful surge of support – 1,000 gifts in my first crucial days as Leader – to kick this year off with a strong foundation for victory, outraise extreme MAGA Republicans and hand them their first upset of the year.

Can Yadira Caraveo and I count on you to step up in this defining moment?

Keep the faith,
Hakeem
