re: college sports

  Team, I would not be who I am and where I am today if not for college sports. That’s not an exaggeration. Football was my key to college. As a high school All-American football player, I earned a scholarship to attend and play tight end at Stanford, which opened countless doors and …

Texas needs our love and support right now

  Team,  Climate change is real and its impacts are already here, most recently manifesting itself with abnormal cold fronts and extreme winter weather occurring across the South. Last week, we witnessed winter storms like never before in Texas, a state that rarely sees the degree of …

A maternal death is a tragedy. A preventable maternal death is an outrage.

  Team, There’s an ongoing public health crisis that’s gone unaddressed for far too long. I’m talking about maternal health. You might be shocked to know that the United States has the highest maternal mortality rate in the developed world, and it’s still rising. In this day and age w…

Have you seen this headline?

  Hey team, have you seen this headline? New York Post - February 15, 2021 It’s true: After letting ex-president Donald Trump off the hook in his second impeachment trial last Saturday, McConnell and the GOP are now setting their sights on taking back the Senate in 2022. Right now, D…

A moment to explain

  Team,  We now find ourselves at the halfway point of the first quarter of 2021, so I want to take a moment to explain what we’re working towards in the Senate, and why I need your support. Last weekend, we completed the second impeachment trial of Donald Trump, and although a majori…

love in all its forms

  Hi, friends! As you know, today is Valentine’s Day. To Cory, this day and the concept of love are not simply about romance. Love is so much bigger than that. Cory has put love at the center of his life’s work. Love for our families, our friends, our neighbors, our communities, our f…

A dangerous precedent

  Team, It is with deep disappointment and disgust that I come to you and share the news that the U.S. Senate just voted to again acquit former President Donald J. Trump in his second impeachment trial. I voted based on the evidence and in line with my conscience to convict Trump. Her…

Support the Justice for Black Farmers Act

  Team, In his new role on the Senate Agriculture Committee, Cory is dedicated to addressing a key intersectional issue that’s long faced our country: racial injustice within the agriculture industry. In 1920, 14 percent of our country’s farms were run by Black Americans, with nearly …

re: Trump’s Senate impeachment trial

  Team, When I ran for Senate, I never imagined being part of an impeachment trial. And I never imagined it would happen twice in my career -- let alone twice in one year. Today, the second impeachment trial of former President Donald Trump will begin. It’s once again a sad, shameful …

For the first time in history, the Senate Agriculture Committee has two Black members.

  Team,  Food is universal, because everyone needs to eat. But our country’s food system is deeply broken, with small family farms continuing to struggle and disappear over the years in competition with massive factory farms and corporate food conglomerates.  And when it comes to nutr…

Baby bonds

A $15 minimum wage

Our first deadline of 2021

  Hey there, Can you believe we’re two days away from the end of January already? That also means we’re just two days out from our very first fundraising deadline of 2021. Look, we’ll be honest: energy has dwindled ever since we voted to oust Donald Trump from office in November. But …

This bill will expand voting rights and strengthen our democracy

  Team — For the past four years, we’ve witnessed Donald Trump and the GOP whittle down our democracy with their voter suppression, misinformation, dark money, and attacks on our democratic elections. To be clear, there was no evidence of widespread voter fraud in the 2020 election. Y…

If Mitch McConnell is no longer Senate Majority Leader...

We’ll have a real shot to pass additional pandemic relief, expand access to health care, take bold action on climate change, protect voting rights, and do so much more that will help our country heal and re-emerge from this crisis as a stronger nation.   Team, if we win the Georgia ru…

Georgia, Georgia, Georgia
