Four weeks to go!

  It’s official, John: We only have four weeks until Hank’s critical Primary Election. Because Hank has ruffled some feathers by leading the charge on Donald Trump’s impeachment, standing up to the NRA, holding Gov. Kemp accountable, and fighting for workers’ rights, Nationa…

Did you answer this question?

  John -- We need a Vice President who can unify Americans and ensure Democrats take control of the White House in 2020. (And if they were from Georgia, that’d be the cherry on top!) That’s why Hank and all of us over here at Team Hank HQ want to know...what do you think abo…

Department of Injustice [take action]

  John, The President of the United States has run a concentrated campaign to get his buddy Michael Flynn off the hook for lying to the Federal Bureau of Intelligence (FBI) about conversations he had with Russian government officials -- and unfortunately, as of yesterday, it…

Stacey Abrams for VP?

  John, I was so honored to support Stacey Abrams when she ran for Governor of Georgia in 2018. I attended multiple events for Stacey, including marching with her in the 2018 LGBTQ+ Pride Parade. I was amazed at how she energized the whole state of Georgia, and even in face…

“Georgia’s experiment in human sacrifice”

  John -- I wanted to take a minute today to express how proud and grateful I am for all the barber shops, beauty salons, and restaurants that have made the painful decision to keep their dining rooms closed as COVID-19 continues to ravage our state. These small businesses h…

Your support keeps me going

  John, I wanted to thank all of you for your support last week as we raised money for our end-of-month fundraising deadline. Even under normal circumstances, fundraising is one of my least favorite parts of the job, and now in these anxious times that’s even more true. How…

hold on...looping John in

John: we are SO close!

  John, There are less than 24 hours before Hank’s critical end-of-month fundraising deadline, and we still need to raise $1,327 to hit our goal and catch up on fundraising. If you haven’t had a chance to donate yet, I’m dropping a secure link below. Maybe you’ll be the one …

Well, I guess I’m going to be a special guest!

  Hi John, I am excited to announce that tomorrow night I will be the special guest at a virtual fundraising event for my friend Jon Ossoff. I chuckle at the idea of me being a “special guest,” but I do believe it is incredibly important that we send my friend Jon to the Uni…

My husband Hank & John

RE: Why is Trump doing this?

  Hi John, Did you catch this? Trump is ending enforcement of environmental regulations on big corporations. This is a big deal. Trump is using our national crisis as an excuse to give his friends (the CEOs and top executives of these corporations) a big break by allowing them…

Environmental protections suspended (yes, you read that right...)

John, In the midst of a global crisis, Trump is hard at work... giving corporations a big break by ending enforcement of EPA environmental regulations. That’s right, Trump’s Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has announced that it will stop enforcing environmental regulat…

Georgia’s "reopening" is a huge risk

Thank you, Dr. Fauci

NRA attacking Hank during a crisis

Confederate Heritage Month (!?)

  With the COVID-19 pandemic hitting hard all across the South, Mississippi Gov. Tate Reeves has decided to spend his valuable time declaring April as “Confederate Heritage Month.” This is just absolutely ridiculous. While there is never an appropriate time to honor the rac…

Kemp’s reckless executive order

Our elected officials need to be held accountable [action needed]

Kemp’s COVID-19 ignorance is alarming

John, I was shocked to hear Governor Brian Kemp say that he only just now learned that COVID-19 can spread from people without symptoms. Experts have been saying that for months. "What we've been telling people from directives from the CDC for weeks now that if you start f…

How are you, John?

John -- Many of you have been in self-isolation for quite some time now. We’ve been practicing social distancing because that’s what the doctors and experts tell us will mitigate this crisis and save lives. But that doesn’t mean it’s easy. I know it’s hard to be away from fam…

Let’s keep the faith

Just last week, President Trump prophesied on national TV that it would not be long before the then 15 U.S. COVID-19 cases would be reduced to “zero,” and then took credit for doing a good job in making it happen. Sadly, President Trump’s fantasy did not come true. Today we h…
