The special interests trying to defeat progressives aren’t slowing down

Hey, quick update: Every month we have a fundraising goal to ensure our campaign can continue staffing up, recruiting more volunteers, and engaging more voters. And since we are entirely grassroots-funded, whether or not we meet these goals is determined by small-dollar donors like you. We’r…

Invest in candidates of color

In order to run for office, women and especially women of color face a huge gap in funding. I’m sure you’ve seen the numbers. Kamala’s campaign has been breaking fundraising records since the day she became the party’s presumptive nominee. As a Black woman in politics who has been campaigning…

It was never about the pets

Give now to support IFSI I hate to give this right-wing conspiracy theory any more airtime than it’s already getting, but this one hits close to home for my district. The former occupant of the White House and his running mate are spreading vicious, racist lies about Haitian migrants. You may…

The TLDR on last night

If you tuned in to the debate last night, you know that we’ve got to do everything we can to elect Kamala Harris and prevent that unhinged, dangerous former-occupant of the White House from being re-elected. If you didn’t tune in last evening, here’s what went down: Kamala Harris didn’t just…

Some of my favorite authors have been banned

There’s no room for censorship in our libraries I count Toni Morrison and Maya Angelou among my favorite writers. As a survivor of childhood sexual abuse, it was when I read I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings that I knew I wasn’t alone. For many of us, the same books that have been banned by Rep…

Then and now

The world we’re fighting for is possible. I am beyond proud of what this team has achieved. In Tuesday’s primary election, Massachusetts voters decisively chose me as their Democratic nominee, poised for a fourth term in Congress. I am no less honored and humbled today than I was six years ag…

Let’s decisively reelect Ayanna next Tuesday. Hi, FIRST – When Ayanna first ran for Congress in 2018, pundits and pollsters said she didn’t have a chance. The closest poll had her 20 points down. THEN – Our campaign expanded the electorate, engaged new voters, and beat a 10-term incumbent by…

This is on behalf of everyone who has ever been left out and left behind. When I first met Kamala Harris, I realized the clear similarities between our personal stories. Not only the challenges we faced as Black women in politics, but also the overlaps in our upbringing, the strength our moth…

re: Childless cat ladies

Get your free sticker today Doesn’t it seem like every time JD Vance opens his mouth, something alarming comes out? He supports a national abortion ban. After calling Trump "America's Hitler," he told him, "I will faithfully serve by your side. He spews misinformation about the 2020 election.…

Too controversial for the public? Then it shouldn’t shape our democracy

Project 2025 is not a threat, it’s a promise. The people behind Project 2025 are hiding a key part of their dangerous manifesto. They’ve touted a “secret” 180-day action plan to overhaul every federal agency and fundamentally reshape our democracy as we know it. And they refuse to release it …

If Donald still hasn’t figured out how to pronounce Kamala, perhaps Madam President will do just fine.

“I have been the best president for the Black population since Abraham Lincoln.” At first I couldn’t believe those words came out of Donald Trump’s mouth. But on second thought, it wasn’t all that surprising, because he has a long history of outlandish, offensive lies. During a panel at the …
