My thoughts on overturning Roe v. Wade

Hi team, I’ve thought a lot about what I wanted to say now that it’s official the Supreme Court has overturned Roe v. Wade. Here’s where I landed: Today is a tragic day. I’m outraged. And I’m terrified of what this means for so many women I love and for women across the country. Th…

re: Josh Harder

John, Our democracy is still in peril. That might sound hyperbolic. But it’s not. During Trump’s first impeachment trial, we warned the American people that if he wasn’t found guilty, he would just do it again. Or worse. Sadly, we were right. Republicans let him off scot free, and …

Hey John, There have been a couple of major updates since our last election, and I wanted to make sure I keep you looped on everything that’s happening in our race: First, Republicans favored candidate, Tom Patti, won the primary and will be my opponent. Then, after lower-than-exp…

my takeaways from the January 6th hearings so far

Hi John, Have you been keeping up with the January 6th hearings? It never gets easier to re-live such a terrible day, but I think it’s important we know the full truth about such a violent attack on our democracy. We need to hold Trump and everyone who participated in this effort t…

BREAKING: rating change in Josh’s race

Hi John, Terrible news: Forecasters at Elections Daily have just moved their rating for Josh one step closer to toss-up! This is not the direction we wanted to go… Josh is one of the GOP’s top targets and one of the most vulnerable Democrats in the country. And the target on our ba…

Hi John, my name is Gabby Giffords. I'm a former congresswoman, and 11 years ago, my life was changed forever when I survived a mass shooting at a constituent event in my hometown. I decided to turn my pain into purpose by becoming a national gun safety advocate, and I've never look…

my community’s experience with a school shooting

John, Thirty years ago there was a tragic shooting at an elementary school in my community. On January 17, 1989, a gunman used a semi-automatic rifle to shoot and kill 5 innocent children and wound 32 others. He fired more than 100 rounds in three minutes, forever scarring the City …

My thoughts on last night’s January 6th hearing

John, Did you watch the January 6th Committee hearing last night? I’ll admit, it was hard to re-live such a terrifying day. I went back to my notes to see how I was feeling that day - here’s some of what I said to my team: January 6th is a stain on our country’s history. My only h…
