Did you see Bernie today?

Senator Bernie Sanders was outside Big Pharma HQ today to protest skyrocketing prescription drug prices. John, did you see Bernie outside the headquarters of Big Pharma’s top lobbyist today? He was protesting skyrocketing prescription drug prices and corporate greed. Chip in to fight corpora…

Stop Senator Sinema’s obstruction

We already knew this was a fight between Justice Democrats and corporate Democrats. John, In 2018, Senator Kyrsten Sinema ran an extremely competitive campaign on the promise of fixing the system to ensure Arizonans receive “quality and affordable health care.” But now, she’s standing in t…

Manchin: top fossil fuel fundraiser

We already knew this was a fight between Justice Democrats and corporate Democrats. John, we can’t let Joe Manchin decide our planet’s fate. The guy taking the most money from the fossil fuel industry in the Senate can’t have this much power. Chip in to fight climate change and the corporate…

Add your name: Hold Exxon accountable

We’re joining Rep. Ro Khanna and 350.org demanding that top fossil fuel executives testify in front of Congress. John, Fossil fuel companies have known about the threat of climate change for DECADES. Over the course of nearly forty years, these companies spent millions and millions and mil…

ICYMI, John: House Democrats ready to negotiate away progressive interests

Unbelievable, John. Conservative Democrats like Joe Manchin want to cut the $3.5 trillion spending bill to just $1.5 trillion. It will reduce investments in health care, climate action, and child care. But like Bernie Sanders, AOC, and other progressive leaders have said — $3.5 trillion was …

Corporate Democrats voted to keep drug prices high

The correlation between votes in Congress and checks in the door is indisputable, and in a nation where millions struggle to afford their medication, it is unconscionable. John, Yesterday, three corporate Democrats voted against giving Medicare the power to negotiate lower prescription drug…

Classist Joe Manchin

We can't let Joe Manchin win Joe Manchin already said he won’t vote for Bernie’s $3.5 trillion reconciliation bill, but now he is pushing back on providing American families direct relief. Will you chip in so we can organize and elect Democrats who won’t turn their backs on the people? Retire…

Corporate Democrats and right-wing foreign policy hawks were so afraid of having my strong progressive voice in Congress.

John, the political establishment ensured I was outspent at the end of my Congressional race. Corporate Democrats and right-wing foreign policy hawks were so afraid of having my strong progressive voice in Congress. They made sure I was outspent by huge sums in the last month of my primary, …

John, I need you in this with us

This is, plain and simple, a call to action. And it’s an important one. The upcoming Democratic primaries are about adding progressive power to Congress, John. That’s why I’m in the fight with Justice Democrats. When I ran for Congress as a Justice Democrat, I fought to address the climate cr…

ICYMI: NOW LAUNCHING The Primary Power Fund 💪

John, We are more than 230 days into Democrats controlling Congress and the Presidency. But the political establishment has spent that time protecting the status quo. Just this summer, Corporate Democrats have stalled progress on climate change, infrastructure, and abortion access. If we w…

The political establishment is floundering

It shouldn’t have taken a crisis for Democrats in Congress to protect abortion rights. And they’re still not doing it. John, Democrats have had more than 230 days in power and they haven’t done two very straightforward things: 1) End the filibuster 2) Protect abortion rights. It shouldn’t h…

Now is the time to abolish the filibuster

John, On Wednesday, SB 8: Texas’ draconian six-week abortion ban went into effect. Under the law, private citizens can sue abortion providers and anyone else that helps people access an abortion. And last night, the Supreme Court ruled in favor of the law. Now the fight to protect abortion …

"Republicans promised to overturn Roe v Wade, and they have."

This is an urgent moment when Democrats must end the filibuster, expand the Supreme Court, and protect abortion rights. John, late last night, the Supreme Court allowed the restrictive Texas abortion law to remain in effect. It’s the most restrictive abortion law since the passage of Roe v. W…

We’re so close

John, First, we experienced a significant slowdown in summer fundraising. Then, we crunched the numbers and reduced our August fundraising goal to $140,000. Now, we are just $7,549 away from meeting our reduced August fundraising goal. If 464 people chip in our average contribution amount …

We’re trying to keep up

John, When the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee (DCCC) raises big bucks, like the $11.3 million they raised in July, we know we are up against something big. The DCCC uses the money they raise to recruit corporate candidates, protect incumbents, and maintain the status quo. For t…
