Three things we need to do:

  John, we have three important things we need to do. We need to defend Senate Democrats like Mark Kelly and Raphael Warnock. Both of these Democrats won their election by just 2 points, and they’re running in critical races which will determine the Senate majority in November. We n…

Must-win races this year

  John, Two Democratic incumbents are locked in must-win races this year: Senator Mark Kelly in Arizona and Senator Raphael Warnock in Georgia. In order for the Senate to pass common-sense gun legislation, codify Roe v. Wade, and lower every day costs for working families, we must pro…

Since 1973

  John, We are approaching the first election in 50 years without the protections of Roe v. Wade. Make no mistake: The right to a safe, legal abortion is on the ballot this November. If Republicans gain control of the Senate, there’s nothing stopping them from passing a nationwide abo…

Close race in Georgia:

  John, the Senate race in Georgia is heating up. A recent poll puts Herschel Walker two points ahead of Senator Raphael Warnock. Will you pitch in $10 today to help support Democrats like Reverend Warnock and fight back in battleground states? Georgia is one of the most vulnerable se…

Will this change your mind?

  John, is there anything we could say to earn your $10 donation before tonight’s mid-month fundraising deadline? What if we told you that Republicans are gaining ground in must-win battleground Senate races, including Georgia? How about the fact that Mitch McConnell and his GOP megad…

Dr. Oz could be the deciding vote

  John, CNN ranks Pennsylvania as the #1 Senate seat most likely to flip, and it’s never been more important that we make that a reality. Here’s why: Republican candidate Dr. Oz celebrated the Supreme Court’s decision to overturn Roe, saying it was “wrongfully decided.” Now, he’s voic…

This Republican Senator thinks 13-year-olds can consent:

  John, The Associated Press released a damning article on the radical views of an anti-choice senator: When asked under oath if a 13-year-old could consent to sex, Republican Senator James Lankford said, “Yes, I think they can.” This is disturbing — and it shows exactly where the Rep…

  Hey John, it’s James Carville. I’ve been taking a look at the polls, and I’ve gotta be honest — we’ve got a tough road ahead of us. I won’t sugarcoat what I’m seeing here: We are in TIGHT races in must-win states like Georgia, Arizona, and Nevada. And with Mitch McConnell and his cr…
