Elie Mystal, Mondaire Jones, and I talk court expansion (link included)

  Hi John,   I’ve told you how I’m working in DC to reform the Supreme Court, and that I’ve introduced a slate of bills to stop the ultraconservative majority on the court from attacking Americans’ rights.   Well, last week I had a great Twitter Space discussion with Elie Mys…

I have the most wonderful supporters

  John,   Because of you we were able to meet our $5,000 goal by midnight last night. 🎉🎉🎉 It came down to the wire, but we pulled it out! I can’t express how grateful I am to have the most wonderful supporters I could hope for.     But we’re not out of the woods yet, John.…

No regrets

Hi John,   We have only 39 days until the fate of our country is decided. As we look back 39 days from now, I don’t want to doubt myself. I don’t want to fall short. I don't want to think “was there one more thing I could have done to prevent the GOP from taking power in Washington?”   I’m wo…

MAGA Republicans are counting on our inability to respond

Leaders should serve their constituents, not make fun of them

John –   Mississippi’s Republican governor is making fun of people in his own state who are suffering, cracking a joke about more than 150,000 residents of Jackson, MS – an overwhelming majority of them Black – having no safe drinking water.   Last week, Gov. Tate Reeves said: …
