Our Monday morning meeting

Mondays are always rough, but this Monday could be rougher than normal if we have to kick off our staff meeting with the news that we didn’t meet our May fundraising goal.  Can we count on you to make our Monday a little brighter by chipping in here? We are already laying groundwork for our nex…

Our slim majority

I’m proud of the work the House has been able to accomplish this year, including passing the American Rescue Plan to provide COVID-19 relief, the Dream and Promise Act to provide opportunities for hard-working immigrants to establish a path to citizenship, and the For the People Act to expand vot…

This needs to stop

  It is troubling to sit back and watch the Republican party continue to fund and support a dangerous wave of QAnon candidates.  Congressman Salud Carbajal is a proud member of the Problem Solvers caucus, a bipartisan group composed of an equal number of Democrats and Republicans committed to f…

John, Let me be blunt:  I just met with my campaign team and learned that we are not on pace to meet our April digital fundraising goal. I need your help now to turn that around. Will you visit www.saludcarbajal.com/donate to help us reach our goal? When the attack ads start hitting next year…

Protecting the majority

Over the past few months, we’ve seen just how much can be accomplished with a Democratic majority in the House.  Bills like the COVID-19 Rescue Plan, the Dream and Promise Act, and H.R. 1 have all been passed, providing much needed aid to and protections for millions of Americans. Democratic la…

Protecting voting rights

  The right to vote is the very core of our democracy and we must ensure every American can exercise that right.  However, instead of making it easier to vote, many state legislatures are moving in the opposite direction.  In fact, 361 bills to restrict voting rights have already been introduced…

Hi, You’re probably well aware by now that there’s an important campaign deadline tonight. We are so close to meeting our goal, but we’re still about $2,700 away.  Can you help us meet or even exceed that goal by contributing online today? This next election could be a tricky one for Democrati…
