A victory for working men and women

Friend, Construction began on the Revolution Wind offshore wind farm two years ago. The project promised a lot to the people of Rhode Island: well-paying jobs for workers, big investments in our ports, and clean, affordable energy for a huge number of homes and businesses – needed relief in t…

I’m running for Congress

Hi there, There are 3 things you need to know about me: When I was 10 years old, getting sworn in as a US citizen, I first took an oath to support our Constitution. I took it again as a diplomat standing up to dictators like Putin, and again serving New Jersey in the House of Representatives. …

We just stopped a half-trillion dollar Medicare cut

Team, After months of pressure, Republicans finally caved and reversed the $500+ billion cut to Medicare that they had snuck into their Big, Beautiful-for-Billionaires Law. This half-trillion-dollar attack on seniors' health care would have done real harm over the coming years. I'm asking you…

Jack Schlossberg is running for Congress

Team, I’d like to tell you about Jack Schlossberg and why I’m asking you to support both his campaign for Congress in NY-12 and my campaign for the Senate. Jack believes in public service that puts people first. He understands that our democracy works best when we bring people together around…

The next phase of our health care fight

Team, A new phase of Democrats' fight to lower health care costs is getting started. All over the country, Americans are opening their mailboxes to find that their health insurance premiums are doubling or even tripling next year. Most families just don't have that kind of extra money in thei…

Trump’s miserable shutdown

Republicans do not want to govern. Team, The federal government is shut down because Republicans – despite controlling the White House, the Senate, and the House – refuse to govern. And they have an inexplicable, long-running hostility toward families being able to get health care. President T…

What if I told you …

We’re facing an uphill battle, and I need folks like you by my side to make it to the top. I know you’re likely getting a ton of emails from candidates and causes right now, team. But I have to ask: Is there anything I can say to convince you to chip in $10 between Sheldon Whitehouse and my Sena…

Turning off the headlights

won’t solve anything Team, Everywhere you look, the Trump administration is trying to reverse the progress we’ve made on climate change. If they get their way, they will drag us back to the bad old days when Big Oil could get rich polluting our air and water without consequences. Take what’s k…

My episode of the DNC’s Daily Blueprint show just dropped

Team, This week, I was on The Democratic National Committee’s new YouTube show, the Daily Blueprint. You can watch my episode here. We talk about everything from the role of creepy billionaires in our politics to Trump’s Big, Beautiful-for-Billionaires bill to climate change. And yes, I’ve b…

Hear me out:

I’ll be honest, folks: I’m livid. And that’s not a statement I make lightly. The Trump administration is taking its marching orders from a fringe conspiracy theorist who’s associated with white supremacists and 9/11 denialism – and it’s directly undermining our career intelligence professionals…

It’s official, I’m running for Senate

I’m stepping up for Mississippi, not because it’s easy, but because too much is on the line to sit on the sidelines. I’ve got an important announcement to share with you, team. My name is Scott Colom, and I’m a seventh-generation Mississippian running for U.S. Senate because I can no longer sit …

Republicans are messing with Social Security and Medicare​​.

Team, Last month, Donald Trump and Congressional Republicans jammed through their Big, Beautiful-for-Billionaires bill, cutting almost 1 trillion dollars from Medicaid and raising health insurance costs on working people – all to bankroll tax breaks for billionaires and mega-corporations. Tho…

Here’s how the Supreme Court paved the way for Republicans to gerrymander Texas

Team, Donald Trump is behind a political pressure campaign to have Republicans in Texas and other states redraw the borders of voting districts to help Republicans in the 2026 midterms. This scheme isn’t just happenstance​​. It was manufactured. Congressional districts are typically redrawn o…

Today, I’m getting back in the fight.

​​I need your support from day one to win. Team, I never planned to run for office again. But when I see what’s happening in Washington, I know I can’t stand on the sidelines. D.C. politicians are raising prices, gutting health care, and rigging the system to benefit their wealthy donors and c…

Ted Cruz tried telling me dark money is a Democratic problem

He should put his (dark) money where his mouth is Team, In a recent Senate hearing, Senator Ted Cruz tried to tell me that dark money is a Democratic problem. Yes, really. Here’s what I told him about what’s actually going on: The national Republican Party has been bought and paid for by dar…

The climate fight continues

Team, I just left the Senate floor, where I gave my 300th speech calling for action to lead the planet to climate safety and shining a light on the creepy climate denial operation. Over the past 13 years, I’ve stood with a chart that reads “TIME TO WAKE UP.” I returned to the floor, no matter…

Billionaires and polluters just got their payday

Team, The Republican Senate majority just passed Donald Trump’s Big, Beautiful-for-Billionaires bill. Simply put: this bill is a betrayal. It’s pretty stunning to see how far Republicans will go courting disaster for their own constituents, all to do the bidding of the billionaires and fossil…

Three years

Team, Three years ago today, after decades of scheming and millions of dollars in dark money, right-wing billionaires got what they wanted: a Supreme Court stacked with anti-abortion extremists – who, in a single decision, erased nearly 50 years of constitutional protections for women’s reprod…

Republicans’ big, beautiful-for-billionaires bill

Remember when they said they wouldn’t cut Medicare? Team, Remember when Republicans said they wouldn’t cut Medicare? Well, Trump’s “big, beautiful bill” that the House GOP just passed goes right at Medicare. Of course, Republicans tried to do it sneakily—here’s how: First, they add trillions…

What you can do today to counter President Trump

Team, Corrupt. Lawless. Chaotic. The Trump Administration enables the looters and polluters feeding themselves at the public trough, and bends our democracy to the breaking point. Remember: behind Trump are the creepy billionaires who captured our Supreme Court, corroded democracy with dark m…
