Gun licensing

  John, My emotions are still raw from the horrible tragedy in Uvalde, Texas on Tuesday. But before I share more of my thoughts, I want to be absolutely clear on three concrete steps the Senate can take to curb gun violence: Gun licensing Universal background checks An assault weapon…

Another School Shooting in America

  John, I do not want to have to send this email. I don’t want to have to spend another second of my time in public service grieving over another senseless act of gun violence, but the massacre at an elementary school in Texas, just a week after a racist and hate fueled mass shooting …

Louis DeJoy

  I need to explain something, John. Even nearly a year and a half into President Biden’s term, Trump’s handpicked Postmaster General, Louis DeJoy, continues to run the US Postal Service. That’s because neither President Biden nor Congress has the authority to fire DeJoy outright. Tha…

The story behind my tattoos

  Hey John, it’s John. After Pennsylvanians nominated me for U.S. Senate in our big win Tuesday, Cory wanted me to introduce myself. We both know I don’t look like a typical politician. Maybe that’s why my tattoos are *literally* the first thing people Google about me. Well enough Go…

It’s humbling to be North Carolina’s nominee for U.S. Senate

  Friends — I’m honored to officially be North Carolina Democrats’ nominee for U.S. Senate. This moment could not have happened without the support of tens of thousands of people like you. It’s humbling. But the truth is, it is only going to get harder from here. There is a lot of wo…

Humbly asking

  Friend, It pains me to acknowledge our failure in the Senate last week to pass the Women’s Health Protection Act knowing the consequences of the looming Supreme Court decision. Overturning Roe v. Wade would mean millions of women would lose access to abortion overnight. It is not ea…

On Friday

  Friend, We barely got word ahead of time before Senate Republicans’ campaign committee began pumping $53 million in ads Friday into Arizona and North Carolina. It’s the earliest they’ve ever run ads in an election year and frankly, we can’t afford to be caught off guard. If we fall …

Help me defend Roe

  I’m so damn fired up I can hardly type this message to you, friend: Breaking news reports say the Supreme Court has voted to overturn Roe v. Wade and they could make that ruling official soon. It’s our worst nightmare coming true – the END of Roe v. Wade. As one of Cory Booker’s top…

Yesterday

  Friend, yesterday I walked off the Senate floor after Republicans unanimously blocked the Women’s Health Protection Act, frustrated but determined to not give up our fight to protect the fundamental right to an abortion. With a Supreme Court decision looming on Roe v. Wade in a matt…

May 11th

  Friend — in a moment, I’ll ask if you can make a monthly recurring donation to my campaign. But first, let me explain why your support is so critically important. In 2020, this grassroots team sent President Biden to the White House, protected our House majority, and secured the Sen…

The Senate majority has never been more important

  Friend, With a Supreme Court decision that could overturn Roe v. Wade just weeks away, Americans’ fundamental rights are imperiled in ways we haven’t seen in nearly 50 years. To make matters even worse, days before POLITICO leaked the Court’s draft opinion, they released their first…

SIGN ON: Codify Roe v. Wade

  Friend, The leaked draft opinion in the Supreme Court’s Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization that would overturn Roe v. Wade is a warning shot for our Democratic majorities in Congress to act. In 13 states, laws are already on the books that would make most abortions illegal…

Happy Mother’s Day

I need Mandela Barnes to join me in the Senate to defend abortion rights

  One $10 donation, friend. That is what I'm asking you to make today to help send Mandela Barnes to the Senate where he'll fight to defend abortion rights. I’ll explain more shortly, but if you can make that $10 donation right now, please use this link: https://secure.actblue.com/don…

The Booker Book Club

  Friend, Since even before I left Harrington Park for college at Stanford almost 30 years ago, I have had a love for learning — to the point where my dad used to tell me, “You have more degrees than the month of July, but you ain’t hot.” After my dad made his point, and I started my …

Politico’s leaked report

  Major news broke this week, friend. POLITICO published a story that contained a draft opinion from the Supreme Court overturning Roe v. Wade. While this was just a draft and abortion care remains legal today, it may just be a matter of weeks until the Court hands down an official ru…

6 hours

  Friend — in a little more than 6 hours, we’ll reach our first end-of-month fundraising deadline of the new FEC quarter. In a second, I’ll explain why it’s critically important that we hit our goal but since we’re already a bit behind: Can you chip in $10 right now and help my campai…

I’m asking, friend

This is an important time for our campaign. Can you step up?   Friend, Last month, we launched our first TV and digital ad of this campaign. Then, Donald Trump raised $600,000 to pour into Georgia, and came to Georgia and attacked us. Now, we have a big fundraising goal to hit by April…

The key to our success

  Is there anything we can say to convince you to contribute today, friend? What if we told you that if we lose just one Senate seat, the historic progress we’ve seen from infrastructure to the confirmation of Ketanji Brown Jackson, won’t be possible? What if we told you that Mitch Mc…
  Cory Booker · [email protected]
April 28, 2022 at 7:02 PM

We have to respond

  Friend, After some highly disappointing, yet unsurprising behavior from Republican Senators during Ketanji Brown Jackson’s Supreme Court confirmation hearings, it’s clear some members of the GOP will go out of their way to curry favor with Donald Trump and his base. As GOP Senate ca…

Fwd: Join me in wishing Cory a Happy Birthday

  Friend, Did you see Barbra Streisand’s note asking you to sign Cory’s birthday card? Barbra’s known Cory for nearly 30 years — before he was even in elected office. She sent over a birthday card to make sure we all share some of the joy and positivity with Cory that he brings to wor…

Join me in wishing Cory a Happy Birthday

  Hey there, It’s Barbra Streisand, and I am reaching out for my friend Cory, who I first met when he was just 24! I’ve got a very special request for you, and I’m hoping that you can help me out. You see, it’s Cory’s 53rd birthday today, and I wanted to ask you personally if you’ll s…

Let me be clear

$141,000,000

  We all knew it was coming, folks, but it’s still no less shocking to see: Mitch McConnell’s Super PAC just reserved $141 million in fall advertising across six battleground states to win back control of the Senate. In North Carolina ($27 million), Pennsylvania ($24 million), and Wi…

Cory’s fired up

$23.82

  $23.82, folks. That was the average donation to our campaign last month. While it might seem like only a statistic to you, it means so much more to me. It represents a coalition of everyday Americans that share the values of justice, equality, and democracy — and are willing to chip…

Biden signs Post Office reform
