I’m reaching out to you

Hey there, I know I’m probably not the only Democrat in your inbox tonight, so I promise to keep this quick: With only a few hours to go until our End-of-Month deadline, we need to raise exactly $552 to hit our July fundraising goal. Please, will you chip in $50, $5, or anything you can before mid…

This number matters

Seven dollars. That’s how much we’re asking you to give to help Brittany Pettersen defend Colorado’s 7th — the most competitive Democratic district in the state — from Trump’s MAGA movement. If that’s all you need to hear, please use this link to give before our End-of-Month deadline tomorrow at m…

“That’s a future Congresswoman”

Can we tell you about our opponents?

Can we tell you about our opponents? We’ll dive into the details in a second, but it’s important you know: If we don’t hold this seat, there is virtually no path for Democrats to win the House. We can’t afford to drop the ball here — and because we’re facing a critical End-of-Month deadline in ju…

A campaign like ours

Thanks to Trump’s disastrous economy, it’s easy to feel like $4 won’t go far these days. But for a campaign like ours? $4 helps us reach out to one more of the hundreds of thousands of registered voters in CO-07. Since Brittany can’t knock on every door by herself, it’s our job to make sure Co…

Sunday morning

Hi, We know you probably didn’t wake up this Sunday morning thinking “I can’t wait to hear about the nitty gritty details of Democratic fundraising!” — so we’ll keep this quick. We’re over halfway through the first month of the General Election, and our grassroots donations are slowing down at the…

Good morning!

Good morning! Sorry for reaching out so early, but as a busy mom of two and a Congresswoman, I live by the motto “early bird gets the worm.” I was just drinking my morning coffee, and peeked at our End-of-Month fundraising drive. And I have to be honest, I was hoping we’d be in a stronger spot…

Colorado isn’t unlucky. We’re defunded.

Colorado has been leading the charge against Trump’s vile and dangerous agenda. So he’s making sure we pay the price. He cut $1.6 billion from NOAA — the agency responsible for weather forecasting, fire prediction, and early warning systems. He used his veto pen for the first time to strike do…

The MAGA playbook

MAGA Republicans have their playbook down to a science: They throw a wrench in every branch of government and stonewall nearly every meaningful policy. Then, once they hit the campaign trail? They tell us everything’s broken and that they’re the only ones who can fix it. So let’s be clear: Don…

There is not a single state more important than Colorado

“No one gives a sh*t about housing”

“No one gives a sh*t about housing” That’s what Donald Trump thinks about Colorado’s housing crisis. His words! Our state is facing a 100,000-home shortfall. But it’s not robber barons like Donald Trump who are suffering the consequences. It’s the single mom in Lakewood who can’t afford to stay in…
