Resources for the SNAP freeze

John, We received news a few weeks ago that the Department of Agriculture would freeze payments for SNAP programs because the funding had run out – due to Trump’s shutdown. This would leave millions of hungry families without food, in the month of Thanksgiving. 1 in 8 people in this c…

Essential programs are on the line—again.

Dear john,   The federal government has been shut down for a full month now, and essential workers are once again missing their paychecks. More painful deadlines are coming up. November 1st is the first day of Open Enrollment for the Affor…

I'm headed back to Washington next week to demand an end to this shutdown

Dear john,   Today is day 24 of the Republican government shutdown, and more people are feeling the impact every single day. Federal workers—who are working without pay—are feeling the strain, most evident for travelers in and out of our a…

My Republican colleagues must negotiate a compromise to end this shutdown

Dear john,   We are reaching the end of week three of the Republican government shutdown, and there is more information to share about this manufactured health care crisis that will happen if my colleagues across the aisle fail to act. Tak…

This is about your health care—do you have a story to share?

Dear john,   As we mark the second week of the Republican government shutdown, I'm hearing more and more from our neighbors in Georgia about what it means for them. I am committed to standing up for your health care and that of millions of…

I'm fighting for you—find out how my office is serving you during a government shutdown.

Dear john,   As of midnight, the federal government is shut down after House Republicans failed to pass a bipartisan funding bill. I have been in D.C. ready to continue my work to secure funding that doesn't cut health care coverage and ra…

This is your sign

Hey John, I’m sure you’re getting inundated right now with lots of candidate messages – but I want to thank you for choosing to invest your hard-earned money in me before. I know that this movement that we’re building together can sometimes feel stagnant, or stuck. Other times, it feel…

It’s my favorite time of year

It’s my favorite time of year, John: End of Quarter. I’m kidding, but you know that I’m sitting anxiously by my computer, watching ActBlue. But we’re seeing a little bit of dropoff from where we should be at this point. We need to make a big splash this End of Quarter. No seat is safe…

Democrats are getting things done

It happened, John. Thanks to Lucy and Congressional Democrats’ work, the Epstein files were FINALLY released – despite Republicans attempts to obstruct them. This proves that when Democrats fight, we get things done. Democrats like Lucy are on the frontlines fighting for you, and holdi…

whiplash

I feel like I say this every month but it has been a LONG month. Rhetoric has been absolutely out of control. MAGA is using the government to go after their adversaries. And, we’re on the brink of a shutdown. It feels like whiplash. I know you’re exhausted, because I’m also feeling exh…

Working families can't afford a Republican shutdown. I will not stop working for you.

Dear john,   I remain focused on the impact that a government shutdown would have on the country, and our district in particular. With less than a week before the funding deadline, Congressional Republicans cancelled votes and sent members…

Before the weekend, three things from Washington:

Dear john,   This week, the House advanced a continuing resolution to fund the government, and it now heads to the Senate. I am troubled by the reckless partisan spending bills currently being considered by the Republican majority, which s…

do we approve of authoritarianism?

Hey John, Today is the last day of our mid-month fundraising blitz, so it’s also your last chance to help us get ahead on our End of Quarter fundraising. We’re trying to make a big splash this quarter, because fundraising numbers are the only thing we have to gauge public support right…

Lucy has always been a target

Hey John, It’s End of Quarter month, and I promise that I don’t want to bother you. In fact, I pore over my budget every month to see what the fewest number of messages I need to send you asking for money is. This is the worst part of my job, but it’s also incredibly necessary. Lucy h…

You know what time it is

Hi John, This month is End of Quarter. You’ve been on my team long enough to know what that means: We’ll be reaching out a little bit (okay, a lot…) near the end of the month so we can finish the quarter strong. End of Quarter is coming up in 2 weeks, and we’re aiming to raise $25,000 …

Brian Kemp wants to keep kids hungry

For some weird reason, Gov. Brian Kemp seems hell-bent on keeping Georgia kids hungry. It’s true, John. Brian Kemp has been given the opportunity multiple times now to receive federal funding for the USDA’s Summer EBT program. This program would give our state federal dollars to ensure…

My week in review

Dear john,   This week, we witnessed horrific and painful reminders of the impact that gun violence has on our nation. No matter our views or our differences, politically motivated violence has no place in our democratic process. Charlie K…

Our favorite time of year

John, it’s our favorite time of the quarter: the End of Quarter finance deadline! We’re kidding, we know you have as much of a love-hate relationship with End of Quarter as we do. But, it’s still coming up, and it’s the first EOQ deadline since Trump’s newest authoritarian actions like…
