Paula Jean for West Virginia John -- I’m writing a brief note today to ask a huge favor. I know we send a lot of emails, but it’s one of the few ways to reach our supporters to let them know how things are going.  Last month we secured the Democratic nomination for this …

Restoring trust.

Paula Jean for West Virginia John, Last year, only 17% of Americans said they trusted the federal government. And that was before the coronavirus pandemic took hold, exposing a corrupt system that puts profits before people. This can’t go on.  I will put people first. Ca…
