Just $1 (not a typo)

  John,  Before our upcoming end-of-quarter fundraising deadline, we’re hoping to get as many supporters to add a donation to help us reach our goal. That’s why we are reaching out to ask if you can spare a $1 (that’s right! only $1) to help us reach our quarterly goals. If you’d l…

This is what my mother taught me

  [[Firstname | Friend]], I’m running to be Florida’s next U.S. Senator — and I hope you’ll give me a moment to share why. My husband and three children. I was born in Ecuador, and when I was 14, my mother brought my sisters and me to America in search of a better life.  We made a…

ugh

  Ugh — We just got off the phone with the team and we got some bad news. We fell short of our mid-month fundraising goal last night. Katie’s disappointed, but she reminded us that we’ve fallen short before and been able to make up the difference thanks to the strength of this gras…

Your personal link

Sent from my iPhone   Hey John,  As you’ve probably heard, we have a critical mid-month deadline tonight at midnight. It’s our final deadline before end-of-quarter, so we don’t have any room to come up short tonight. But we’re not where we need to be at this point in the day. That’s …

A toss-up

  John,  Sabato’s Crystal Ball currently ranks the House majority as a toss-up. That means it’s anyone’s game, and if we work hard we’ve got a real shot at winning back the majority and taking the gavel from Kevin McCarthy.  It’s not just the majority, though. Many of our frontline…

3️⃣ things

  Hi John,  This message is a bit longer than the ones we usually send, but I'm hoping you can spare a few minutes to let me explain why our upcoming mid-month deadline is so important. If you’d prefer to cut to the chase, I completely understand! Please consider making a donation …

Money is the reason we’ll win or lose the House

We may have to scale back

  John, Is there anything I can say to convince you to chip in $5 ahead of our final mid-month deadline before end-of-quarter?  What if I told you our team relies almost entirely on donations we receive from folks like you to fund our work? What if I mentioned that our plans to ele…

I lost

  Here’s something you may not know: I lost the first time I ran for Congress in 2016. I’ll be honest, John, it was a tough loss. I was ready to get to work to serve my community. But my opponent defeated me by fewer than 7,000 votes — so I shook off the dust and ran again in 2018…

What’s happening in Alabama is a disgrace

a red wave in New York

  John, if you care about any of the issues that Democrats are fighting for, then you need to care about New York. The truth is, my state was just hit by a red wave – one strong enough to help hand control of the House to Kevin McCarthy. Last year, Republicans here had their best e…

We’re preparing for the mifepristone case to go all the way to the Supreme Court

The hard truth

  I’m never going to be afraid of telling you the hard truth, John, and here it is: It’s dangerous to be a woman in politics.  A recent study from Princeton University and the Anti-Defamation League found female officials are 3.4 times more likely to receive online harassment than …

A real shot at codifying the Equal Rights Amendment

Republicans are winning the fundraising game

  Take a look at this headline, John:  Republicans have been outpacing us in fundraising for the 2024 elections — and that’s a huge problem, because we know that in 90% of House races, the candidate who spends more wins.  So if Republicans are already raising more than Democrats …

  $13.27. That was our average online donation last month, John. $13.27 may seem small to the billionaires and super PACs that prop up so many of our elected officials. And it’s pocket change to the corporate special interest groups who pay to ensure their CEOs keep their tax looph…

Re: an 1864 abortion ban in Arizona
