We can't lose Michigan

John, The GOP are going all out to defeat my friend Gary Peters in Michigan. Mitch McConnell and President Trump know that if they turn this seat red, it will be nearly impossible for Democrats to win enough seats to elect a Democratic majority in the Senate. Republicans are throwing everyth…

Hickenlooper needs our help

John, Dick Durbin is working hard to defeat the GOP and elect a Democratic majority in the Senate -- but without a win in the Colorado Senate race on November 3, that job becomes much harder. Colorado is one of our best shots to flip a red seat blue -- but it's up to us to make it happen. Wi…

John, The American people might think that the Senate would be doing everything in our power to address the COVID-19 pandemic -- but they would be wrong. Instead, Mitch McConnell and the Senate GOP fast-tracked President Trump's nominee to fill the vacancy on the U.S. Supreme Court. There has…
