Honestly, I can't do this without you

They could win. We could lose.     CRITICAL: CHIP IN BEFORE THE FEC DEADLINE My mission is pretty straightforward -- I ran for Congress to get things done for New Jersey families: Health care: I’ve taken steps to protect the ACA and lower the cost of prescription drugs. Infr…

grit & determination

We need both, because Washington Republicans want me gone.     In 2018, I became the first Democrat to hold this seat in more than three decades. And one thing’s for sure: It wasn’t luck. It was the result of months of hard work from this team. One of the best ways you can h…

Asking for $5

time is running out     I’ll be direct because time is running out: If we don’t organize now, this seat, the House Majority, and our fight for New Jersey families will all be at risk. And we’re still short of our goal. Give $5 before our deadline at midnight tonight to help close t…

Time is running out before our deadline.     This will just take a few seconds of your time -- this race will be a tough fight to the finish line, and reaching our goals is one of the best ways to continue our work for New Jersey families. Make another generous contribution bef…

I have to ask

before our mid-month deadline     In a little bit, I am going to ask you to chip in before our mid-month deadline, and here’s why: I’m one of House Democrats’ 2020 Frontline Members, meaning I’m one of the most vulnerable incumbents. Washington Republicans pinpointed me as a …

More mass shootings than days in the year

McConnell's inaction is irresponsible.     The first bill I supported after entering Congress was a bipartisan effort to expand background checks and prevent gun violence. More than eight months later, it’s still held up in Mitch McConnell’s Senate. In that time, there have been mo…

Dan McCready has a special election in FOUR DAYS

Every dollar and every moment counts.     A veteran is in a toss-up race where Washington Republicans are spending millions to defeat the Democratic candidate. Of course, that’s exactly how you could describe my 2018 race for Congress. It’s also how you can describe Dan McCread…

Last call

Super quick

here's the deal:     Sorry to bother you -- I’m not exaggerating when I say how urgent this is. The NRCC has launched false attack ads against me. New Jerseyans know I’m working across party lines to accomplish the things we set out to accomplish during my 2018 campaign, but th…

FWD: We really need Mikie Sherrill

    Quickly -- we wanted to make sure you saw this note from House Intelligence Committee Chairman Adam Schiff. Rep. Schiff is right: Mikie’s seat is essential to holding the House in 2020. Chip in now to help defend her seat → Without her, the Majority and our abilities to adva…

laser-focused

We need Mikie Sherrill

and here's why:     I’ve gotten to know many of our talented Freshmen Democrats this year. But I’ll be honest, Mikie stands out. She’s a tough fighter who isn’t afraid to tackle the big issues head-on. It’s no surprise why -- she’s a former Navy helicopter pilot, a former federal p…

My seat is one of the most vulnerable in the country

It's clear why: The path to the House Majority runs straight through my District.     In a moment, I’m going to ask you to contribute to my campaign, but first, let me tell you why: My district is one of the most vulnerable in the entire country and both parties agree: Democrat…

I don't want you to miss anything

it's not working out, Mitch

Washington Republicans want me to lose my job

I'm so grateful this grassroots team has my back.     I know -- August has been a tough month for all of us. But one thing I’ve taken away is that I’m more determined than ever to keep fighting for New Jerseyans and our shared goals to prevent more gun violence, secure tax relie…

Andy Kim does things differently

Andy's message and vision for our country resonated with New Jersey voters, and he flipped a seat by a razor-thin two points.     Like me, my colleague and friend Andy Kim went to Congress to do things differently. He ran on a promise to put people before partisan politics, and…

Getting things done for NJ families

I made a promise to work together to get things done for New Jersey families. And I'm making good on that promise.     I know -- with so much partisan division in Washington, it can often feel like Congress is at a standstill rather than working for Americans. But I made a promise …

We can't live like this

and we don't have to     I am heartbroken -- the back-to-back mass shootings in Texas and Ohio this past weekend together killed over 30 people and injured dozens more. They happened within 24 hours of each other, and the gunfire lasted less than a minute. We can’t live like this. …

An attack on New Jersey families

Elaine Chao hasn't done her homework
