Mia: personal touch

Image
Mia listed as one of five most interesting Republican candidates in 2014 Utah's 4th district considered most likely district to switch to the GOP Mia's Message This is a story I tell frequently in speeches to illustrate what I call "the power of personal touch." One day a little girl attended a San Diego Padres baseball game with her father. More than anything, she wanted to catch a fly ball. She was so animated that those in the stands paid more attention to her than to the action on the field. After a little while, the girl’s father suggested that they move to the next section over, where no one else was sitting. Shortly after relocating, a fly ball was hit right into the seats where they had just been sitting. A young man caught the ball. Without hesitation, and with the stadium's JumboTron fixed on him, he ran over to the little girl and handed her the ball. The excited little girl blew him a kiss as he walked away. After the game, the ...

Jacky: “Every heartbeat hurts.” “My chest hurts.” “I can’t feel my heart.”

Image
Robert, “Every heartbeat hurts.” “My chest hurts.” “I can’t feel my heart.” According to investigators from the inspector general’s office, these are just a few of the many heart-wrenching reports of anxiety and post-traumatic stress they are receiving from children separated from their parents by the Trump Administration’s inhumane immigration policies. These children have been irreversibly harmed and will be dealing with the impacts for their rest of their lives. We must continue to speak out and fight back for the children who have been affected by President Trump’s horrifying family separation policies. Add your name now. It is totally unacceptable that children in U.S. custody are not receiving the proper care and treatment they need. From a lack of basic hygiene items like soap to necessary health care services like the flu vaccine, we’ve seen report after report confirming the cruelty these children are experiencing on our government’s watch. These children mu...

Kirsten: two fabulous women

Image
Dear Robert, I know your inbox probably feels crowded right now, so I want to help cut through the clutter by telling you about a ten-time marathon runner and a PTA president – two fabulous women who truly deserve your attention: My friend Kyrsten Sinema won her first Congressional race in 2012 by fewer than 10,000 votes. She’s proven herself an ally on reducing student loan interest rates and supporting women’s right to choose, and she fought by my side on behalf of military sexual assault victims. Now, Kyrsten is running her first reelection campaign – the toughest race for a member to win – and she needs our help today. Gwen Graham is running her first campaign to reclaim a red seat and bring real change to the Florida panhandle. Inspired by her father, former Democratic Senator Bob Graham, she has forged her own path as a tireless advocate for public education, serving as PTA president and in-house attorney in her local schools. North Florida desperately needs her afte...

Pulin and the Change.org team: Thanks for being a change-maker

Dear National Black, Last week, public outcry forced Amazon.com to pull over one hundred whale and dolphin meat products from its Japanese site. Consumers were outraged that the world's largest online retailer supported the killing of whales and dolphins -- and Amazon.com listened. But now, Amazon.com is refusing to put a permanent ban in place to protect these animals in the future. Melissa Sehgal, an Amazon.com customer, is in Taiji, Japan -- the site of an annual dolphin hunt that was exposed in the documentary The Cove. Every day she is witnessing how dolphins are captured and killed, and she wants Amazon.com to help stop it. That's why Melissa started a petition calling on Amazon to never again sell meat from dolphins and whales. Click here to sign Melissa's petition asking Amazon.com to permanently ban whale, dolphin, and porpoise meat from its sites. Tens of thousands of dolphins, whales and porpoises are captured and killed for their meat every year in Japan. The me...

Hon. Marilyn: fighting for babies and their mothers.

Dear robert, I wanted to update you on the incredible progress we are making to protect life across the country. Thanks to the leadership of the members of our National Pro-Life Women’s Caucus we are seeing a flurry of momentum at the state level. In  Kentucky , State Representative Addia Wuchner is sponsoring a long-overdue limit on abortion after five months.   In  South Carolina , State Representatives Wendy Nanney and Donna Hicks have led the effort on a Pain-Capable Unborn Child Protection Act, which is only awaiting a final vote in the House of Representative before going to the Governor’s desk.   And in  South Dakota , State Senator Jenna Haggar was a lead author of the state’s Pain-Capable bill, which passed on Monday of this week and was  signed into law by Governor Daugaard just this morning! Below is a chart from our research arm, the Charlotte Lozier Institue, which shows the states that have passed late-term abortion limits so fa...

Paul: concrete framework for tax reform.

Click here to open this e-mail in its own browser window     Click here to open a plain text version of this email CONSTITUENT HOTLINE 1-888-909-RYAN (7926) Today is a big day.  Today, the House, the Senate, and the Trump administration unified behind a concrete framework for tax reform. This is the first step forward to fixing our broken tax code—which hasn’t been done in over thirty years. We are cutting taxes. And we want you to have more jobs, fairer taxes, and bigger paychecks.  I want to personally send you the  full framework  .  You will hear a lot about our plan,  but these are the facts  : Lowers Rates for Individuals and Families The framework shrinks the current seven tax brackets into three – 12%, 25% and 35% – with the potential for an additional top rate for the highest-income taxpayers to ensure that the wealthy do not contribute a lower share of taxes paid than they do today.   Doubles the S...

Jenny: out-hustle "Team Mitch"

Image
Dear Patriot, If we don't help Constitutional conservative Matt Bevin win the Kentucky primary in a few weeks, RINO Mitch McConnell could  cost us the Senate majority . For that very reason, the  Tea Party Patriots Citizens Fund  has made  Matt Bevin's  campaign one of our very top priorities this year. We must raise  $ 100,000  as soon as possible to help push Matt to victory, along with Tea Party candidates across America! Please make your most generous contribution of $15, $25, $50, or whatever you can possibly afford right away to help us get involved on the ground in this critical race. We have only a few weeks left before the Kentucky primary! Mitch McConnell's campaign is an absolute  disaster  right now. It's so bad that a local Kentucky paper recently asked, " Is Mitch McConnell  trying  to lose? " This RINO has attacked his own voting base, claiming that he wants to  " punch "  Tea Party conse...

A big vision without a plan is just a fantasy.

Image
  Our next big end-of-quarter fundraising deadline is coming up on Wednesday. Grassroots donors like you are powering the fight for big, structural change. Chip in $3 or whatever makes sense right now to help re-elect Elizabeth and put more Warren Democrats in office across the country — and we’ll send you a free “End the filibuster” sticker as a thank you for your support.   DONATE NOW A big vision without a plan is just a fantasy. Exciting, but little more than a wisp that eventually blows away. A plan is the first step on the journey to making a vision real. As COVID-19 has shown, we need plans that will ensure our health and safety — careful plans that are patiently developed and refined, day by day, out of the spotlight. We need road-tested plans that are ready to roll out even when no one is sick, even when wildfires aren’t raging and hurricanes aren’t blowing in, even when our economy isn’t on the brink of collapse. That’s why we’ve not only laid out our vision to cance...

Marco: Our conservative message struck a chord with Iowans.

Image
robert, Another one of my opponents just announced his departure from the presidential race because he ran out of money. It's a sad but true fact about campaigning -- you can only go as far as you have funding. We cannot allow that to happen to our campaign.  Our conservative message struck a chord with Iowans. Now it's time to make certain that every voter in New Hampshire and South Carolina hears us too. If you support me and our campaign, then I need you to chip in right now. We cannot afford to allow our nation to fall into the wrong hands just because we didn't stand up and take action today. I know our message resonates with millions of Americans who want a leader they can trust and count on. I promise you that when I'm President I will restore the great values and traditions our nation was founded on, building us a New American Century.  But I can only get there if I have your immediate support. Will you chip in $10 or more right now to let me know I c...
