Trump wants to end mail-in voting

Hi friend, Donald Trump has just announced his intention to end mail-in voting across the country. He’s calling it “fraudulent” and vowing to eliminate it before the 2026 elections. Let’s be clear: this is not about election security. It’s about silencing voters. Seniors, m…

The rich win big. The poor lose.

Hi friend, The nonpartisan Congressional Budget Office—the official scorekeeper for Congress—just confirmed what we already knew about the GOP’s so-called “One Big Beautiful Bill” (OBBB): it’s a massive handout to the wealthy, paid for by gutting lifesaving programs for the…

Flip the House. Stop Trump’s Power Grab.

Dear friend, On August 11, Governor Gavin Newsom issued a blunt warning to Donald Trump: if Republican-led states like Texas keep gerrymandering to steal more House seats, California will fight fire with fire—and win. We believe in independent, nonpartisan commissions to dr…

Trump shut it down

Hi friend, Donald Trump and his extremist allies just shut down the Corporation for Public Broadcasting—the engine behind PBS, NPR, and so many programs Americans love and trust. This wasn’t about budgets. It was about censorship. From Sesame Street to Morning Edition, publ…

Just 12% left to go

Hi friend, I just got an update from my team: We’re 88% of the way to our $10,000 goal. That means we’re just over a thousand dollars away from finishing this month strong, but we need to close the gap before midnight tonight. Can you chip in right now and help us cross the…

Just 38% to goal

Hi friend, Quick update from the Matsui Finance Team: With less than 48 hours left, we’ve only raised 38% of our $10,000 end-of-month goal. That puts us behind pace — and with everything at stake in 2026, we can’t afford to slow down. Doris is working every day to protect t…

This decision will cost lives

Hi friend, The federal 988 LGBTQ+ crisis lifeline is no longer operational. Let me say that again: the Trump Administration has shut down one of our most effective suicide prevention tools for LGBTQ+ youth. Since 2022, this specialized lifeline has handled nearly 1.3 millio…

What happened in Sacramento is outrageous

Hi friend, What happened in Sacramento was not law enforcement—it was intimidation. Federal agents showed up unannounced and masked, and violently abducted our neighbors. This wasn’t about keeping communities safe. It was about spreading fear, chaos, and distrust. Let me be…

This will cost lives

Hi friend, Right now, House Republicans are pushing a rescissions package that will strip funding from PEPFAR — one of the most successful global health programs in history, responsible for saving over 25 million lives from HIV/AIDS. This is not new spending. This is money …

The Big Ugly Bill is official—here's what you need to know

Hi friend, There are moments in public service that leave you shaken — moments when you see just how far some will go to protect the wealthy and powerful at the expense of those with the least. This is one of those moments. Donald Trump’s so-called “Big Ugly Bill” has now b…

The Big Ugly Bill is now law—here’s what it means

Hi friend, Donald Trump just signed his “Big Ugly Bill” into law — and it’s not just reckless, it’s a full-blown environmental disaster. This law takes a sledgehammer to America’s clean energy future and hands billions in giveaways to Big Oil. It’s a climate catastrophe tha…

Trump just signed a bill that guts Medicaid

Hi friend, Donald Trump just signed his so-called “Big Ugly Bill” into law — and it’s every bit as cruel and destructive as the name suggests. This reckless legislation guts essential programs that millions of Americans count on. And one of the biggest targets? Medicaid. He…

Fighting back against the GOP’s “Big Ugly” bill

Hi friend, House Republicans just passed their “Big Ugly” bill—a dangerous piece of legislation that slashes investments in working families, guts protections for our environment, and threatens our economic security. This isn’t governing. It’s reckless partisanship that put…

The GOP won’t silence me

Hi friend, The attacks are escalating. House Republicans, emboldened by Donald Trump’s grip on their party, are launching a coordinated effort to dismantle the progress we’ve made. From restricting reproductive rights to slashing investments in clean energy and targeting vi…

This is what authoritarianism looks like

Hi friend, What we witnessed this week is chilling. Donald Trump deployed the United States Marines to the streets of Los Angeles—ignoring the will of local officials and trampling over the very democratic principles that are supposed to bind this country together. This is …

This is not how a democracy works
