Not Great

  John xxxxxx —  We pulled our grassroots fundraising numbers this morning and it looks like we are still coming up a little short of reaching our September target. It’s not where we wanted to be, but that’s okay there’s still time! This means we have some catching up to do and tim…

Good and Bad News

  John xxxxxx — we have some good and bad news to share. Let us rip the bandaid with the bad news first, here it goes. The bad news is that Republicans are laser focused on restricting voting rights across the country so they can have a better chance at taking back our House majori…

Since 1619

  The history of the American worker is a story older than America itself, John xxxxxx. It's a plot rooted in chattel slavery and deep gender bias, the rebellious spirit of freed people seeking access and advancement, and the ingenuity of our small business owners and inventors. Fr…

re: a year ago and a year from today

We know what happens when we get complacent

  Hey, John xxxxxx — We can’t use the calendar as a barometer for how concerned we should feel about House Democrats’ chances for success in 2022. After losing the House majority in 2010 and the Senate in 2014, we know what happens when Democrats become complacent. With Democrats w…
