One downside

  Friend, Last night, President Biden addressed Congress to highlight what a Democratic majority has been able to accomplish in his administration’s first 100 days. Together, we’ve been able to provide over 200 million vaccinations, cash relief, unemployment insurance, and expanded ch…

Thank you

  Friend, Throughout my career in politics, I’ve had one guiding principle: Love. Love is the reason why, as a first-time candidate running for Newark City Council, I went on a hunger strike to draw attention to the desperation facing the most vulnerable communities in our city. Love …

Hey

I bet you weren't expecting to hear from me today   Hey there, It’s Cory’s birthday today, so I wanted to send you a note asking if you’ll sign his birthday card while he’s at work! Last year, I moved to the wonderful Newark community he’s made his home for the past 20 years. Ever sinc…

Please

  Friends, I have an important request for you today. I want to ask you to make a donation to support this campaign. But before I ask, I first want to express my gratitude for all you’ve done to get us to this moment. Thanks to your efforts last year, we brought real change to Congres…

protecting our environment for the next generation

  Hello, Martin Heinrich here. I represent New Mexico in the U.S. Senate. Cory is among my closest friends, and we’ve gotten to work together on many important pieces of legislation over the past few years. Today I want to tell you about a new bill we’re both excited about. Almost 90 …

The COVID-19 Vaccine

  Friend, For over a year our country and the entire world have been combatting a global pandemic unprecedented in our lifetimes. We’ve completely changed how we work, play, and celebrate — all to keep one another safe from illness and help our frontline workers save lives. This week,…

Humbly asking

  Winning back the Senate, House, and White House last November took an organizing effort that was years in the making. For four long years, we did everything we could to stop Donald Trump and the GOP from enacting cruel and harmful policies that attacked our most vulnerable communiti…

Maggie Hassan

  My good friend and colleague Senator Maggie Hassan is running for reelection, and today I’m reaching out to ask if you’ll make a donation to help keep her in the Senate. Maggie flipped New Hampshire’s Senate seat from red to blue by just 1,017 votes in 2016. That margin — one of the…

What you need to know about the Momnibus

  I'm always looking for a chance to explain the “Momnibus,” and there’s no time like the present. We’re kicking off Black Maternal Health Week by talking about a legislative package that will change the equation for Black moms and all birthing people, saving lives and closing racial …

Mitch McConnell is very angry

  This week in Kentucky, Mitch McConnell held a press conference where he issued a warning to corporate giants like Coca-Cola and Delta Airlines: “Stay out of politics” — unless, that is, you’re prepared to make a hefty financial donation. That’s right. The same senator who called the…

How’s your March Madness bracket doing?

  Folks, Overt disparities in the treatment of the men's and women’s basketball teams competing in the NCAA tournament have raised my ire — and my urgency to address this injustice head-on. Women competing on the biggest stage of their lives have encountered inadequate training facili…

Georgia won’t be the last

  Team — I don’t mean to alarm you, but the window Congress has to pass legislation to protect voting rights before the next election is shorter than you might think. The truth is, we have been scrambling to pick up the pieces that a dysfunctional Trump Administration left in its wake…

Short

  Folks, I’ll keep this short. My team tells me that we’re closing in on our FEC fundraising goal with just a few hours until our midnight deadline — but we’re not quite there yet. Can you pitch in $10, or a donation of whatever you can afford? Any amount — no matter how big or small …

Universal background checks. An assault weapons ban. Gun licensing.

Mark Kelly’s seat is a top GOP target in 2022

  Team, we wouldn’t have a Democratic Senate majority without my friend Mark Kelly flipping Arizona blue last fall. Due to special circumstances, he’s on the ballot again in 2022. I’m reaching out to you today for help. The truth is that we are one bad election result away from Mitch …

Another Mass Shooting

Fighting to end child poverty in America

Another world is possible

Help keep Nevada and the Senate blue →

re: college sports

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

A dangerous precedent

re: Trump’s Senate impeachment trial

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