Kirsten: game-changing upset

We’re SO CLOSE to a game-changing upset, Robert. By electing Donna Edwards to the Senate in Maryland, we’ll make the Senate more progressive, more female and more diverse. And with the GOP’s latest histrionics over the president’s Supreme Court nominee, we desperately need more leaders like Donna. Donna can win.  She’s leading by  SIX (!) POINTS  in  The Baltimore Sun’s  latest poll, despite her opponent’s massive fundraising advantage,  but I need your help to ensure she can close strong. This is a race where your $5 or $10 can make all the difference, Robert. Will you please donate to Donna now? Here’s the best link to make your gift:  https://secure.actblue.com/contribute/page/kg4de Thank you for deciding this matters. Kirsten

World’s toughest challenges, you know better than anyone: the global development community is at an unprecedented crossroads, with growing humanitarian needs, fewer resources, and the landscape changing every day.  Given the scope of the challenges we face, this year’s CGI meeting will be different — by necessity. We need to redefine how we show up, how we work, and how we find ways to honor our common humanity. This September, our goal will be to connect dots across issues, expose the consequences, and confront the complicated issues in front of us.  VIEW THE AGENDA The CGI community is built for moments like this. This year marks two decades of our community convening and responding directly to global crises — from the devastating 2010 earthquake in Haiti; to the U.S. economic downturn in 2009 with the launch of CGI America; to the Ebola outbreaks in 2014, 2015, and 2016; to the Caribbean hurricanes in 2017; to the COVID-19 pandemic; and more. We’ve launched more than 4,100 ...

Al: won't be easy

Image
Dear Robert, What if there was a magic button that could overturn  Citizens United , get the word “SuperPAC” out of our national vocabulary, and drive shady money out of our political system forever? Wouldn’t you push the heck out of that button? Me, too. But there’s no such button. All we can do is fight as hard as we can to limit the influence of big money -- and one important step we can take is passing the DISCLOSE Act, a bill that would force special interest groups to tell us who’s funding their political activities. There’s no button we can push to make the DISCLOSE Act law. But there is a link you can click:  Click here to join us in calling on Congress to pass the DISCLOSE Act now! In the end, what we really need is a constitutional amendment to overturn  Citizens United  once and for all. But that’s an uphill battle. And the DISCLOSE Act would be an important first step up that hill. Requiring that special interest groups reveal where they get thei...

Rand: I have returned unspent money

Image
Dear Patriot, Our country is running a deficit, a very serious deficit. We are fiscally broke and there is no end in sight to curb the limitless spending in Washington. I am outraged by the waste that pollutes our government. It makes my blood boil to see money that should be spent defending our country instead being wasted. And that's why I need your help to make sure I am reelected to continute my fight against this fiscal insanity . I have argued for years that we must not borrow money from China to give to Pakistan. Just this month I led the fight on the Senate floor to stop the United States from spending 300 million dollars of your taxpayer money to fund F16 fighter planes, which were being subsidized for Pakistan. Why are we funding planes for Pakistan when our own nation is starving for so many improvements? Make no mistake, Patriot, egregious government waste exists at every spending level. Recently, I discovered that the U.S. State Department is spending $...

Al: Senator Whitehouse is making his voice heard.

Image
“The Rhode Island Democrat gave his 100th ‘Time to Wake Up’ speech Monday.” -  AP , 5/18/15 Dear robert, Despite scientific evidence, there are quite a few members in the U.S. Senate who deny climate change is even happening, let alone that it’s a problem. How do we wake these deniers up to the need for action to combat climate change? I’ve considered pouring a five-gallon bucket filled with cold water over their heads. But on further consideration, that seems both impractical and unwise. Senator Sheldon Whitehouse has a much better idea. He’s given a “Time to Wake Up” speech about climate change on the Senate floor nearly every week.  He gave his 100th speech on Monday. We’re going to take this opportunity to let Senator Whitehouse know we’re fighting with him. Add your name to mine today. Scientists widely agree climate change is happening. And there are plenty of things we can do -- like instituting a renewable energy standard -- to reduce carbon emissions and slow t...

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.

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...

Patrick: Womens March in Vermont

Image
Robert, This morning, Marcelle and I were proud to see how many Vermonters travelled all the way to Washington to participate in the Women’s March on Washington. And we were so pleased to see so many gather for a similar march in Montpelier this afternoon. It was an honor to join together with many thousands of women and men gathered to proclaim loudly that women’s rights are human rights -- and to make a strong statement a day after the inauguration of Donald Trump. By coming together today, Americans of all gender identities, races, faiths, sexual orientations, and immigration statuses sent a powerful message that we will continue fighting for women's rights, to protect our communities, and for progress on the issues that matter. Today, I stand in solidarity with marchers in Washington, Vermont, and across the nation. If you were able to march today,  thank you  for standing up and making your voice heard. If you weren’t able to attend a march yourself, jo...

Jon: elevate the voices of veterans

Image
robert - Since we started our campaign to elevate the voices of veterans who support a diplomacy-first approach with Iran, over 20,000 men and women who have worn our country's uniform have added their names in support. Today, I want to share a few of their stories with you, and to let you know that in the next few weeks, we're going to be flying almost two dozen veterans and military family members out the nation's capital to make their voices heard loud and clear. Contribute $3 to help VoteVets bring these veterans to Washington, D.C. to lobby the Democratic representatives we need to hold the line ahead of the vote on the Iran deal later this month. Dennis, an Operation Enduring Freedom Veteran (Afghanistan) wrote in that  "The alternative is an eventual war, again, in the Middle East." Matt, an Iraq War Veteran from Colorado added,  "Based on my experience in Iraq, I feel that diplomacy is a better path than military action in southwest Asia ... Vo...
