Friend — Elissa first decided to run for office in 2018 and in the wake of Trump’s election. She had never been to a political meeting or a political fundraiser. But from the moment she got in, she’s been concerned that many Americans have fundamentally lost trust in our government and our …

One thing we learned from our last campaign

Friend— If there’s one thing we learned from our last campaign, it’s that it pays to plan. Not only was my 2022 election one of the most competitive House races in the country – it was the MOST expensive in the country. Outside groups poured millions of dollars into the race and campaign …

How the ACA got me into politics

Friend — Today, March 23, is the day that the Affordable Care Act was passed into law 13 years ago. It’s an important day for me because the ACA – and indeed the vote to repeal it in 2017 – played a major role in motivating me to run for office in 2018. And it all goes back to my mom. My …
