Will: the federal government's role in education poll

Image
Dear Friend, Most parents would agree that our children are the future and they deserve the best education our country has to offer.  I would like to know what you think about the federal government's role in education. Do you believe that the federal government should have more or less control of public school curriculums?* More control Less control I'm not sure Click to open in a separate window   As your Representative, I am most effective when I am receiving feedback from constituents. Please do not hesitate to  contact my office  if you have any questions, concerns, or opinions on something important to you and your family. Respectfully,   Rep. Will Hurd

Bernie: super PACs and the billionaire class want to block that path

Image
Robert - I want to talk about what we did  last night : after starting in the polls in Wisconsin down more than 40 points, we finished the election with a HUGE margin of victory. We're also going to come away with a strong majority of the delegates. We are on the path to the Democratic nomination for president. But I want to be clear:  super PACs and the billionaire class want to block that path in the New York primary. We very much expect an unbelievable amount of attacks and negativity over the  next two weeks .  But I also expect that if we all stand together, starting right now, we can come out of New York with another victory. That's why I have to ask you directly: Contribute $3 to our campaign to help us continue our momentum from Wisconsin with a victory in New York in less than two weeks. One of the first sentences I wrote to our supporters after we launched our campaign was something few people heeded: People should not underestimate us. T...

Take our Budget Priorities Survey to let Adam know what you want Democrats fighting for in the weeks ahead.

Image
  Friend — Voters, supporters, and organizers across the country elected our Democratic majorities and President Biden to force change. To rebuild our economy, save our planet from the climate crisis, and rescue our democracy from the abuses of an authoritarian cult of personality surrounding the former president. Mitch McConnell should not get to decide which bills Congress passes in this once-in-a-generation opportunity to carry out that mandate. So while the Senate negotiates a bipartisan infrastructure deal, we need to make sure that the budget reconciliation package — which can pass with 50 Democratic votes — includes robust investments not only in roads, tunnels, and bridges but also in families and workers. Take our Budget Priorities Survey to let Adam know what you want Democrats fighting for in the weeks ahead.   Team Schiff Budget Priorities Survey TAKE THE SURVEY The reconciliation package is a critical opportunity to address climate change, expand Medicare, invest ...

Jeff: What does it mean to be part of the resistance

Image
    Robert, The time for mourning is over. If Donald Trump follows through on half the things he talked about on the campaign trail, we’re in trouble.  And the early signs are that he intends to do just that. Add your name right now and let’s build the movement to fight back! What does it mean to be part of the resistance to Trump? When people are attacked for who they are, or where they come from,  we will fight. When the Administration hands over our clean air, water, and lands to corporate polluters,  we will fight. When human rights, civil rights, and voting rights are under attack,  we will fight. When the interests of Wall Street and corporate conglomerates are placed ahead of working families and the health of our planet,  we will fight. It means taking action. I’m going to be on the front lines of these fights in the U.S. Senate, and I’m going to need you with me.  Join me and let’s stand up for our values together! Jef...

Rep. John Lewis embodied that mission throughout his eighty years,

Image
Hi there,   Late last night, the world lost a legend. In the  statement  President Obama released in light of the heartbreaking news of Representative John Lewis’ passing, he describes an inspiring conversation they had after their last public appearance together: “It’s fitting that the last time John and I shared a public forum was at a virtual town hall with a gathering of young activists who were helping to lead this summer’s demonstrations in the wake of George Floyd’s death. Afterwards, I spoke to him privately, and he could not have been prouder of their efforts—of a new generation standing up for freedom and equality, a new generation intent on voting and protecting the right to vote, a new generation running for political office. I told him that all those young people—of every race, from every background and gender and sexual orientation—they were his children. They had learned from his example, even if they didn’t know it. They had understood through him what Ame...

Mia: Americans deserve to know the full truth

Image
Dear  robert , Recently I was named to the select committee to investigate the alleged sale of fetal body parts by Planned Parenthood.  I recognize this as a great responsibility, and believe this needs to be a fair, non-partisan look into possible illegal activity conducted in the organization.   The recent horrific videos that have been released must be investigated.  We as Americans deserve to know the full truth behind what has been released. We must decide if we will stand for such actions in our society, and how we value human life. I hope you will join me in standing up for the sanctity of human life.  Sincerely,  Join Team Love To join Mia Love's reelection team email george@love4utah.com Or call 801-890-4355 Mia In The News Mia on Criminal Justice Reform, Salt Lake Tribune Rep.

Elizabeth: Wisconsin voters will have their say

Image
Robert -- Majority Leader Mitch McConnell isn't the only Republican suggesting that the Senate should spend the next year blocking President Obama's Supreme Court nominee. Wisconsin Senator Ron Johnson has been in lockstep with McConnell from the start. Thankfully, Wisconsin voters will have their say this No‌vember when Senator Johnson and Russ Feingold are on the ballot. If Senator Johnson won't do his job, it's time to replace him. I'm committed to doing everything I can to help Russ win in November. Will you join me? Join me. Make a $5 contribution to Russ Feingold's grassroots campaign right now.

Alice: we mourn for all the victims of the latest terrorist attack in Brussels

Image
Dear Black Independenty,   Today, we mourn for all the victims of the latest terrorist attack in Brussels. As Ted Cruz  said this morning :         “Today radical Islamic terrorists targeted the men and women of Brussels as they went to work on a spring morning. In a series of coordinated attacks they murdered and maimed dozens of innocent commuters at subway stations and travelers at the airport.   “For the terrorists, the identities of the victims were irrelevant. They –we—are all part of an intolerable culture that they have vowed to destroy.   “For years, the west has tried to deny this enemy exists out of a combination of political correctness and fear. We can no longer afford either.   “The days of the United States voluntarily surrendering to the enemy to show how progressive and enlightened we can be are at an end. Our country is at stake.”   Best,   Alice Stewart Com...
