They. Want. Me. Gone.

RNC all in on CT-05

John — We’ll make this quick. Today is the first end-of-quarter reporting deadline of this cycle – and we need your support now.  The GOP is laser-focused on CT-05. They’ve enlisted the help of major Republican national donors to fill their coffers and flip this seat, and they will …

The GOP is coming for this seat, but we’re not going anywhere!

Our FIRST end-of-quarter reporting deadline of the election year is Thursday. We’ve told you the national GOP is coming full steam ahead for this seat – including, for the first time ever, opening headquarters right here in Connecticut. The headlines would be comical if they were not…

RNC’s first time ever in CT (and it’s in our district!)

Can you hear me now? I’ve been telling you this year was going to be different. Republicans are desperate to retake power in Congress and believe they have an opportunity to pick up a seat here in CT-05. They started signaling a ramp-up of their interest in our race from the earliest days of this…

Our work is far from finished

The path to a Democratic majority in the House runs straight through toss-up districts like Connecticut’s 5th. If we don’t win here, we can kiss our chances of keeping the House Majority goodbye. John, it is an election year so we cannot afford to sugarcoat this: The path to a Democ…

Speculation about CT-05

Our Democratic majority in the House is incredibly narrow. With redistricting guaranteeing a Republican pick-up of at least two seats nationally if not more, Jahana’s frontline race here in CT-05 is one that will make or break the Democratic majority. John, Our Democratic majority in…

Happy New Year from the NRCC

Hope, decency, respect… oh, wait. Nope. That’s not how the GOP operates. Fear, divisiveness, disinformation. That’s how the GOP keeps us divided. And that’s why the National Republican Campaign Committee (NRCC) is back with a brand new attack ad on Jahana. When someone shows you who they are, bel…

This is the smallest House majority in years

In 2020, Democrats lost seats in the U.S. House of Representatives. While Democrats technically hold the majority, it is only by a few seats, some of which will automatically be lost to redistricting. In 2020, Democrats lost seats in the U.S. House of Representatives. While Democrat…

Roe v. Wade is under attack

The Supreme Court just heard arguments in a case that has the potential to gut the critical reproductive rights provided by Roe v. Wade. This is not a drill. Bodily autonomy is dangerously close to being eviscerated. Far-right, anti-choice activists across the country have waited decades for an o…
