Short

  Friend, There isn’t much time before tonight’s midnight fundraising deadline, so I’ll keep this quick. Mitch McConnell and his corporate, big money donors are willing to do — and spend — whatever it takes to flip the single Senate seat they need to break our Democratic majority. The…

McConnell: “the single most consequential thing I’ve done”

  Friend, As Senate Majority Leader, Mitch McConnell confirmed seven right-wing federal judges the American Bar Association rated as “not qualified.” Now, McConnell just told a conservative talk radio host that it’s “highly unlikely” he would allow President Biden to fill a Supreme Co…

2022 campaigning has already started

  Friend, In just a moment, I’ll ask you to split a contribution between Senator Chris Van Hollen and my campaign, but first let me explain why we can’t take Maryland’s Senate seat for granted — and what will happen to our progressive agenda without it. Back in 2008, Chris chaired the…

The Paycheck Fairness Act

  Friend, Mitch McConnell and Senate Republicans cynically filibustered the Paycheck Fairness Act to escape accountability and avoid a vote that would show the American people where they really stand. In 2020, women earned just 84% of what men earned for the same work — that gap is ev…

Louis DeJoy

  Friend, This news just broke: Republican megadonor and Donald Trump’s hand-picked Postmaster General, Louis DeJoy is under FBI investigation for campaign finance violations. In addition to DeJoy personally contributing more than $1.1 million to Trump and the GOP, employees at his fo…

More than $30 million?!

  Friend, We know it’s the weekend, but this can’t wait: Senate Republicans have already raised $30 million this year to go after our Democratic incumbents in key states — including Arizona and Georgia, where our 2020 special election victories mean we have to win again in 2022. Will …

What’s on your mind?

  Friend, Senate Republicans have the filibuster, but they haven’t been able to stop our progress thanks to the Senate majority you helped elect. We’ve administered nearly 300 million vaccine doses since passing the American Rescue Plan. And next month, the expanded Child Tax Credit w…

We missed it

  Friend, We’ll be blunt — we missed our May fundraising goal yesterday. Hitting our monthly goals is critical to building the strongest campaign possible. So today, we’re looking for a huge number of grassroots donations to make up ground for our June FEC fundraising deadline right a…

The moral arc

  Friend, There is nothing more powerful than an act of love. In 1965, a group of volunteer lawyers in New Jersey witnessed the horror of Bloody Sunday and decided to fight against discrimination in their own communities. This included my parents’ right to buy a home in a segregated n…

The Senate just voted

  Friend, Senate Republicans just voted against a bipartisan commission to study the January 6th attack on the Capitol. It’s a disgrace that only a handful of Senate Republicans chose country over politics and went against Mitch McConnell’s party-line vote. Senate Republicans cynicall…

Keep Raphael Warnock in the Senate

George Floyd

  Friend, George Floyd. That was his name. He was a son. He was a father. He was a brother. And we failed him. Not just Derek Chauvin — he was to blame. But we all bear responsibility for a system in America that allows this to happen every day. We cannot fall short at this moment. Mi…

Get Your Shot!

May 21, 2021 Dear New Jerseyan, I wanted to talk to you for a brief moment about the COVID-19 vaccine. Every American over age 12 is now eligible to receive a vaccine against this deadly virus, and it has never been easier to get one of these safe, effective, and free vaccines. We have the ability …

January 6

  Friend, Donald Trump incited an insurrection of right-wing extremists against our government at the U.S. Capitol on January 6th and if we do not pursue truth, justice, and accountability, it could happen again. This week, a large bipartisan majority of the House passed a bill to est…

The Supreme Court

The GOP’s real allegiance

expanded Child Tax Credit

$18

  Friend, I wanted to take a moment to share a number with you that my team told me about earlier this week. $18. That’s the average online donation folks like you are contributing to our campaign. And I couldn’t be more grateful, because I know how hard it can be for folks to give du…

One downside

Mitch McConnell is very angry
