presenting three incredible women to our EMILY's List community

robert,

I just got back from an event in Houston where I had the pleasure of presenting three incredible women to our EMILY's List community, Leticia Van de Putte, Nina Turner, and Lucy Flores -- all of whom are going to run for statewide office in 2014. Get to know their names, because they are the next generation of leaders from EMILY's List and the Democratic Party. 

It has given me such joy to see them grow, just as our EMILY's List former Political Opportunity Program (POP) candidates Wendy Davis and Natalie Tennant have risen up through our POP pipeline. I know Leticia, Nina, and Lucy will do great things.

 

Help us fight back!

 

Take care,

Stephanie

P.S. 2014 is a brand new year with brand new possibilities. Give us a head start going into 2014 and donate to EMILY's List today!

Jenny Beth Martin: We’re not going to simply sit in Washington

Image
Dear Patriot, Just a few days ago, we announced our  grassroots-powered ,  boots-on-the-ground  strategy to defeat big government incumbents all over America this year. And we are on the cusp of unveiling our list of endorsed Tea Party candidates for 2014. But before we can do that, we need your support to secure the funding that will push these candidates to victory! Please, make your very best contribution of $10, $25, $50, or whatever you can afford to the Tea Party Patriots Citizens Fund right now, and help us gear up for this year’s critical battles in Kentucky, South Carolina, and elsewhere. You see, as we announced earlier this week, the Tea Party Patriots Citizens Fund is already huddling with activists on the ground in  South Carolina , looking for an alternative to big-spending establishment Republican Lindsey Graham . And in  Kentucky , we are already coordinating with local Tea Party activists who have lost faith in the weak-kneed R...

What is 4th of July to Fort Smith Arkansas.

Image
What is 4th of July to Fort Smith Arkansas. When we still have Confederate monuments downtown. Where they have annual bike rallies in which they sell Confederate flags. When Confederates put flags on their trucks and intimidate our children up and down our streets. When Confederate flags wave through the neighborhoods of our children that are walking home from school. Where their dogs are barking at our children to harrass and terrorized them until  they cannot move and we as adults have to stand and tell them that everything is okay. What is 4th of July to Fort Smith Arkansas. When we have a black mayor who does nothing for his own race and will celebrate America's Independence and ignore his own Freedom day that Juneteenth represents. The same mayor that used the platform of integration and segregation as a reason to be elected. And that same segregation and integration that is represented in Juneteenth was avoided. Will boast of white applause and ignore our black sisters in...

we’ll have to keep our foot on the gas to build the strongest Democratic Party in history

Image
Donald Trump keeps putting himself first and America last. Even as cases of COVID-19 skyrocket in states across the country, this president continues to host in-person fundraisers to pad his reelection war chest and fund dishonest ads -- including planning to return back to Florida, which is currently battling a sharp increase in cases -- at the end of the month. It’s irresponsible and reckless that Trump is ignoring public health experts and carrying on with his in-person fundraising events, but it's clear there's no level he won't sink to in an attempt to stop Democrats from chipping away at the RNC's cash-on-hand advantage. Here’s the thing, though: Together, we were able to outraise Donald Trump’s fundraising machine two months in a row -- relying heavily on virtual fundraising and grassroots contributions from folks just like you. But in order to compete with him and the RNC, we’ll have to keep our foot on the gas to build the strongest Democratic Party in history ...

you can brave the crowds at the mall

robert,     This holiday season, you can brave the crowds at the mall. . . . . . Or you can give your loved ones a gift with real meaning and importance, a gift that can keep on giving.  This holiday season, give the gift of an EMILY's List 2014 membership. This December, when you give the gift of EMILY's List to a friend or colleague, we'll send him or her a holiday e-card to welcome them to our community and share the news about their new membership. An EMILY's List membership can help do so much  -- like winning back the House, protecting our pro-choice majority in the Senate, and fighting back against the Republicans' anti-woman agenda. Give an EMILY's List 2014 membership to someone you care about this holiday season. Thank you and Happy Holidays! Amalia Stott  Development Director, EMILY's List

ONLY Black Conservatives left in Congress are in serious trouble.

Image
  It doesn't look good, Mr. Gilyard. The Democrats are coming after newly-elected Reps. Burgess Owens & Byron Donalds like nothing I've ever seen before... ...and the ONLY Black Conservatives left in Congress are in  serious trouble .     I'm writing to you, Robert, because patriotic conservatives like you were instrumental in helping Burgess & Byron beat the odds to win two hotly-contested races for U.S. House last election. But they need us now more than ever. You see, the Democrats have already stockpiled millions of dollars to relentlessly bombard Burgess & Byron with brutal attacks from now until Election Day, and their deep-pocketed Big Tech comrades are funneling in millions more. The Democrats are desperate to defeat these two outspoken Black conservative Congressmen because they're... ☆ Speaking truth directly to the Black Community ☆ Exposing the Democrats' race-baiting LIE that conservatives like you and me are all  racists ☆ Reclaimi...

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...
