We have to respond in a BIG way

Team, it's official – Ted Cruz has launched an attack ad blitz against Colin: Texans deserve to know the truth about who's really on their side. Colin has been fighting for us from day one. Ted Cruz, on the other hand, has been fighting to cut Social Security and Medicare, strip Texans of…

This isn’t about me

I want to be honest: If you’re able to make a contribution of $5 or anything you can right now to support our re-election campaign, it would be a huge help. Right now we’re tracking behind our August fundraising target. If we fall short of any of our grassroots fundraising goals this year, …

Kamala Harris is turning the tide in Wisconsin

Friends — The excitement around the Harris-Walz presidential ticket is real. People across the country are fired up to reject the far-right at the polls and beat Donald Trump once again. Here in Wisconsin, Trump was ahead by as much as 6 or 7 points in some polls just a month ago. But Kam…

my “quintessential big sister,” Kamala Harris

A lot of folks probably don’t know this, but Kamala Harris and I actually go way back. Both of us came up in public service as district attorneys, and over the last decade, we’ve fought hard to protect our communities and provide opportunities for all families. She’s been a mentor and fri…

Republicans will do everything they can to disqualify votes this November
