Tonight’s deadline

  John, Tonight marks our last mid-month fundraising deadline of the year. And I’ll be honest, I need your help. Before the clock strikes midnight, can you pitch in $10 or any amount you can afford to help us reach our fundraising goal? If you've saved your payment information with Ac…

This is important

  John — it’s not going to be easy to defend our 5-seat Democratic majority in the House in 2022. But we have to get it done. And we can do this. And it sure as hell couldn’t be any more important that we do. Let us explain why. Election night in 2018 was a pivotal moment for Democrat…

straight-up looney toons

  John, I remember when Democrats used to be able to work with Republicans in Congress on a broad range of issues. When the GOP was a party of ideas, and they didn’t pose such an existential threat to our Democracy. They used to believe in something. I might have disagreed with them o…

Some thoughts over a quick cup of coffee

  I have 15 minutes of free time this morning, John. It may not sound like much — but I’ve been working long hours in Congress along with my good friend Adam Schiff to pass President Biden’s agenda, and a gap in my schedule like this is rare. So, as I’m sitting here with my husband, …

A firestorm of right-wing attacks

  John, Adam’s endured an absolute firestorm of right-wing attacks lately. During these difficult times, Adam stays grounded by focusing on the positive — like how thankful he is to have such an amazing grassroots team. Your unwavering support keeps him fighting even when Donald Trump…

My bill to prevent presidential abuse of power just passed the House

    Adam’s Protecting Our Democracy Act — a bill designed to prevent abuses of presidential power — just passed the House. Despite defeating Trump, this past year has shown how vulnerable our democracy remains. We can’t let up on our work to protect our democracy from the aut…

The story behind this picture of me and Eve

  It was one of the best nights of my career. But it was not all joy. Not by any means. November 8, 2000. After a brutal two-year congressional campaign, I was elected to Congress with Eve by my side. It wasn’t an easy race. Far from it. All eyes were on our district as I took on a na…

Max Rose

  John, When Democrats won the House Majority in 2018 by flipping 41 seats from Red-to-Blue, it was because of candidates like Max Rose in New York’s 11th congressional district. We can flip this district Blue again in 2022. This district is winnable. This district is critical. And I …

Donald Trump attacked Adam late last night

  John — Late last night, Donald Trump was at it again in Mar-a-Lago, sending out a blatantly false statement attacking Adam for doing his job and holding Trump accountable. It’s a hodgepodge of the usual denials of Russian help in his election, lies about the insurrection, and false …

Donald Trump’s hand-picked Postmaster General

  John — You remember Louis DeJoy right? Trump’s hand-picked Postmaster General. Who left his job as finance chair of the 2020 Republican National Convention. Who single-handedly slowed down the mail during the 2020 election by enacting the largest rollback of mail services in generat…

I’m curious for your feedback

  John, I can’t believe it’s already December. Over the past year, we saw Donald Trump finally leave office, welcomed President Biden to the White House, flipped the Senate, and kept our House majority — albeit by very slim margins. We passed the American Rescue Plan Act. Millions of …

Not a single Republican

  Hey John — I’ll keep this email super short. Because the stakes are so high. Earlier this month, the House passed the Build Back Better Act. It allocates over $500 billion towards climate change, expands funding for the Affordable Care Act, lowers prescription drug prices, establish…

Right now, only about 10% of the people who gave in the last campaign have given to this one.

It’s no secret, we are a top target of the corporate special interests who will do and spend whatever it takes to defeat us   John — I know we send you a lot of emails. But in just a moment, I am going to ask you to split a contribution between my re-election campaign and my friend Ad…

Hey, it’s Adam 👋

  Hey John — it's me again. Our November deadline is just 48 hours away. I know you're probably busy and still stuffed from Thursday, but while I have your attention — can you pitch in $10? When the GOP is ranking in millions of dollars from corporate lobbyists and billionaire donors,…

Our democracy depends on it:

  John, I know it's the middle of a long weekend so I'll keep this short. A week ago the House passed a massive bill to cut costs and invest in families. Universal pre-K. Paid family leave. Childcare. Medicare and Medicaid expansion. Funding to curb child poverty. Help for renters and…

Kevin McCarthy threatened to remove me from my committees

Against all odds
