It's time for bold action.

Nothing is more important to Pat than to keep our families safe, and that means taking bold action to take weapons of war off our streets, pass background checks, and more.   Hey team — We wanted to make sure you saw this news from last week about Pat’s work to curb the gun violenc…

Control of Congress hinges on New York

  “New York House races to be battlegrounds in 2024 elections” — Newsday Team — Last year, I was the only Democrat to win a swing seat in New York — and we did so by a 1-point margin. Our campaign resonated with voters across the Hudson Valley: We delivered a clear message about the…

Elise Stefanik raised $3 million last quarter

  Team, today we’re asking you for $3. And no, that’s not a typo. We’re asking for $3 because last quarter, New York Republican Elise Stefanik raised $3 million to bolster her campaign war chest from MAGA millionaires and corporate PACs. She’s already promised to use some of those …

Every day that we fail to act is a moral failure

Nothing is more important to me than your safety, the safety of our kids, and our ability to live without the fear of violence.   Team — Last week, I spent time with survivors from Uvalde, Newtown, and Parkland. They held a sit-in at the Capitol for a week because they were outraged…

We can’t let the gun lobby win

  Hi — Today is National Gun Violence Awareness Day. In the first six months of 2023, over 17,000 Americans have lost their lives to gun violence, including 755 children under the age of 18 and 268 people who have been killed during a mass shooting. We have a problem. Starting with …

By the numbers

  Hey team, here are some important numbers you should know: $6,000,000: That’s the amount Republicans spent last year to defeat Pat. They failed twice, but now they’re back for revenge. 1 point: That’s the margin Pat won by last November. It was one of the narrowest victories last…

We need to be ready to respond

  Team — We set an ambitious $10,000 end-of-month fundraising goal for May. Now that Republicans have started running attack ads against Pat, we need to ramp up our defenses in preparation for what’s to come. We need to be ready to respond to the next wave of GOP attacks on Pat’s r…

The attack ads are starting

  Hey team — The National Republican Congressional Committee (NRCC), the House GOP’s main fundraising arm, has started running attack ads lying about Pat’s record. Can you rush in $10 or any amount so we can respond to these attacks and get ready to be on defense? If you've saved …

Staying on track

Santos and Stefanik

NY-03, George Santos, take back the House

We can’t leave these freedoms in the hands of far-right judges

George Santos is running for reelection

Choice is still on the ballot
