Michael’s plan to help 5 million children

Friend, this is unbelievable.Five million additional children fell below the poverty line in 2022. Five million. It was an almost 140% increase from 2021 — and there’s an obvious reason why. In 2021, Michael won an important victory with the passage of the expanded Child Tax Credit. This law helped…

Turning Colorado blue

Friend,We’re a little over a year away from the 2024 election, and two of Colorado’s Congressional districts are already considered the most competitive in the whole country. In 2022, Lauren Boebert won her re-election campaign by 546 votes, or 0.16%. Democratic Representative Yadira Caraveo won in…

URGENT: new GOP opponent

Big news, friend: Mitch McConnell’s hand-picked candidate just launched his campaign for Pennsylvania’s Senate seat. McConnell has already said he’s targeting Pennsylvania, and this entrance to the race all but ensures that National Republicans are going to flood our state with an unprecedented amou…

We can’t let them get away with this

Friend,Big Tech has been writing its own rules for too long.  Without proper guardrails, these companies have invaded our privacy, harmed our kids, and damaged the foundation of our democracy. With the rapid development of artificial intelligence, it’s more urgent than ever that our leaders in Wash…

Let’s get Matt Gaetz out of Colorado (and Congress!)

Friend,This weekend, Matt Gaetz is coming to Colorado for a big fundraising event with Lauren Boebert. Gaetz is an unapologetic MAGA Republican. He took part in efforts to overturn the results of the 2020 election and has repeatedly downplayed the January 6th insurrection. And in Congress, he’s mor…

Big Pharma

Hi team,People in the United States currently pay more for prescription drugs than in any other major economy. Big Pharma — and all the Republicans they write checks for — want to keep it that way. Americans deserve better. That’s why last year, Michael fought hard to pass the Inflation Reduction A…

Negotiating drug costs

One year ago, we took on Big Pharma and Republican obstruction to pass the Inflation Reduction Act.  One of the key provisions I fought for required Medicare to negotiate the cost of medication with pharmaceutical companies on behalf of America’s seniors. I was thrilled to see it become law. The Ce…

Here’s how we defeat Lauren Boebert

Hi friend –In 2022, Lauren Boebert beat her Democratic opponent by just 546 votes.A lot of people underestimated just how close this race would be.
