The headlines might not be talking about this

The news coming out of Washington is complicated. But the facts are simple. Jahana is quietly working diligently – outside of the headlines and outside of the cameras – to get real work done. Work that positively impacts all Americans. John, the news coming out of Washington is comp…

Building Back Better

Honoring those who served

Today, we stop to appreciate our veterans. To really appreciate the sacrifices our veterans have made. To appreciate how they put their lives at risk. To appreciate how they left their families behind. To appreciate what they gave up in order to protect our country and our freedom. To our veteran…

take a look at the current state of the Democratic majority →

While 2020 won the Democrats the White House, we did not fare so well with our House races. The GOP picked up seats and made gains. And they are not taking their feet off the gas. With redistricting guaranteeing an R pick-up of at least two seats if not more, Jahana’s frontline race here in CT-05…

update about the upcoming deadline

This is the moment when the national Republican groups set on taking the House will get some insight into whether their early attacks on Jahana made an impact. Jahana has been hard at work over the past few weeks battling crises on multiple fronts – but the GOP hasn’t stopped playing their game o…

holding our ground

Hi John

As fall approaches, we hope you are settling back into your routine. The end of summer was heavy – COVID spikes, anxiety about back-to-school and work, ending the war in Afghanistan, Texas outlawing a woman’s autonomy, and the list goes on and on. It is easy to be overwhelmed by it all. …

GOP is spending $$$

Jahana is busy working so it’s up to us to begin mobilizing her campaign for re-election… Typically, summer is the hardest time to raise money in politics – and with everyone outdoors and off their computers celebrating after a year in lockdown, 2021 is proving to be no exception. Jo…

I’ve been on Team Hayes a long time now

I knew Jahana when she was a first-time candidate, running to make history in Connecticut’s 5th District. I joined her on that first campaign, rallying supporters to get out the vote in the 2018 race for Congress. When she won, I knew that the 5th District had just gained an unparalleled advocate…

CT-05 update from the Speaker’s desk

Six months of major recovery
