Hi John,
Last Congress, the House passed legislation to protect voting rights, enact police reform, rally to reproductive freedom, and defend our democracy.
But as you know, those bills died in the Senate, despite Democrats having a slight majority.
That’s because the Senate requires 60 votes to overcome the filibuster — an antiquated Senate rule that has been used to protect a status quo of racism and deny rights to Americans for much of our country’s history. And without 51 votes to abolish the filibuster, it continues to harm Americans.
My friend Ruben Gallego explained it well last year.
And John, Ruben is now running for the U.S. Senate in his home state of Arizona, because he’s not afraid to make the Senate work for the American people. I hope you’ll join me in supporting Ruben’s candidacy and taking the fight to those who refuse to advance necessary legislation. Will you split a contribution between Ruben and me today to help us dismantle the DC roadblocks that are keeping us from delivering for our constituents?

It’s time to do away with the racist filibuster and open up our nation’s promise to all of us.
