Unprecedented

Team, For the first time in more than 40 years, local elected Democrats in and around Maryland’s 5th District are endorsing a challenger to Steny Hoyer. That’s right – for forty years, it’s been standard for sitting local elected Democrats to never endorse someone running ag…

If this email raises $1250, I can spend all my time at the polls today

Team, Early Voting has begun. The past few days, I’ve been at the polls – talking to every voter I possibly can about our vision for the district. People are incredibly receptive to our message: after 42 years, it’s time for some damn change! That’s where I want to be spend…

Nobody else is doing it like this

Team, I’m going to share something with you. When I was younger, I wasn’t very politically engaged. I felt left out of the political process. Politicians weren’t knocking on my door, they weren’t calling my phone. And so I didn’t believe that it was for people like me. That…

I'm turning 32 today

Team, Today is my 32nd birthday. Believe it or not: when I was born, Steny Hoyer had already been in Congress for ten years. All I want as a gift this year is the chance to finally win some damn change. We're so close to Election Day – just two weeks away – and I'm ready t…

Almost halfway there

Team, The tracker keeps ticking upwards – but we'll need a huge push today to reach the goal. Can you rush a contribution to ensure we can get out the vote? Our GOTV Fund is going to be crucial to turning out the voters we need by Election Day. But why is this race so imp…

We’re falling behind (see the tracker for yourself)

Team, Just three weeks until Election Day. The good news is that Mckayla is continuing to build momentum, win key endorsements, (the latest is Friends of the Earth Action, who endorsed just a few minutes ago) and spread her message that it is time for some damn change. The b…

Support Your Local Abortion Fund

Dear Friend, The Supreme Court ruling overturning Roe v. Wade stripped away fundamental reproductive rights from millions of people. Women in states with abortion bans across the country will attempt unsafe procedures in order to control their own body. It’s an obscene, cruel …

Strategy Memo & Launching the Get-Out-the-Vote Fund

Dear Friend, I'm going to share something important with you: we are expecting voter turnout this cycle to be significantly lower than last cycle. Why? Three reasons: 1) It's a midterm election year, so fewer people are paying attention. 2) The timing is unusual – Maryland vi…

Watch our new ad (video inside)

Dear Friend, I’m running to be the first Black woman our district has ever sent to Congress. After 55 years in office, Steny Hoyer is out of touch. He’s listening to the corporations who fund his campaign. I'm listening only to the people – which is why I'm fighting for sch…
