These are 4 MUST win races in 2022

  John — we are emailing for $4. Yes you read that right, just $4 — and here’s why. There are 4 Democratic Senators up for reelection in 2022 that MUST win if we want to defend our Senate majority. If you need a reminder, those races are Senators Mark Kelly in Arizona, Raphael Warnock…

re: Ron Johnson

  John —  Last month, Republican Wisconsin Senator Ron Johnson had this to say about why he opposes the child care subsidy for working parents. "Well, people decide to have families and become parents. That's something they need to consider when they make that choice. I've never reall…

We’ll keep this brief

  Hey John —  This is the last time we’ll be reaching out before our end-of-month fundraising deadline expires at midnight tonight — so we’ll keep this brief.  We have one last shot to hit our goal of 10,000 donations and we still have a little ground to make up.  It’s critical that w…

John, can you spare $5 to protect our majority?

  John —  Remember when we did something amazing together? When we took back the Senate, creating a Democratic majority for the first time in 6 years? When we defied the odds and flipped not just one but TWO Georgia Senate seats blue in a historic runoff election, making a 50-50 tie? …

Eye Popping

  John — Political spending so far in 2022 for the midterms is unlike anything we’ve seen before. In Pennsylvania, celebrity doctor Oz has dropped $5.4 million on ads in two months, and another Republican, David McCormick, has spent $3.7 million on TV. In Ohio, where there’s an open S…

Mitch McConnell’s words were insulting and wrong

Here’s why your support is so important...

Donald Trump & Mark Kelly

Ron Johnson broke his promise to Wisconsin
