Katie: We did it

We did it, friend!

Over the past nine months, we worked together to build our grassroots campaign from the ground up.

Our volunteers pounded the pavement to talk to voters, our staff put in long hours and late nights, and we fought for every last vote. Our grassroots donors chipped in $5 here and $10 there to make sure we had the resources to compete. And your hard work paid off, big time.

I'm proud to be Pennsylvania's Democratic nominee to take on -- and beat -- Pat Toomey this November. Pennsylvanians deserve a champion who will fight on behalf of families to make college more affordable, to raise the minimum wage, and to make sure that all Americans have access to affordable health care.

Friend, we've got a long, hard road ahead -- but our victory today proves that this grassroots team has what it takes to pull together and win.

I'll be calling on you for your support soon enough. But right now, I just want to say thank you. I mean it when I say I couldn't have done this without you.

Thank you for everything,

Katie

Hillary Clinton: 30 years of “women’s rights are human rights”

Image
    Black Independents -- When the UN Fourth World Conference on Women met in Beijing in 1995, I wanted to go. If my husband hadn't been president, I would have wanted to go as myself—a lawyer, an advocate. But I knew that if I went as the First Lady of the United States it would carry a message that would resound around the world: The United States is putting its leadership toward advancing the rights of women. When I was working on the speech, which took many weeks, I was really focused on how to break through. I wanted to push the envelope in the speech to state a simple truth: women and girls inherently have the same rights as men and boys. After I got back from the conference, I did a lot of media. I remember a man from Iran calling in to the Voice of America and asking me: "When you say women's rights are human rights, what can you possibly mean?" He was genuinely confused. I said, "I want you to close your eyes and think about all the rights you have. And ...

Mikie: We are tied 43 to 43 in New Jersey, I need Black Independents support.

Image
Every single day since he took office in January, it seems like Donald Trump has found new ways to abuse his power and make life harder for our families. He’s illegally withheld funding that New Jerseyans rely on for child care, for health care, and for access to healthy food. He’s deployed the National Guard to American cities in a transparent attempt to instill terror and fear. He signed a devastating spending bill that guts Medicaid access and makes everything from groceries to heating your home less affordable — all to give billionaires a giant tax cut. And honestly, that’s just a fraction of it. As Trump has inflicted all this damage on our country, Republican politicians like Jack Ciattarelli have cheered him on every step of the way. There is seemingly nothing Trump can do — no matter how illegal, reckless, or outright devastating for New Jersey families — that would make Jack Ciattarelli say “enough is enough.” And ,  polls show that Ciattarelli is within a few percentage p...

Chuck: help us amplify Sheldon's 100th call for action

Image
Robert, How many times have you stood up for a single issue you believed in? Would you tell your colleagues about it 10, 20, or even 50 times? Would you make it the one of the central causes of your life's work? Well --  Senator Sheldon Whitehouse just gave his 100th speech on climate change on the floor of the Senate. In recognition of Sheldon's accomplishment, I'm joining with my colleagues, Senators Barbara Boxer, Elizabeth Warren, Dick Durbin, Al Franken, and Tammy Baldwin, as well as leading environmental groups, to commend Sheldon and recognize his remarkable dedication to our future and our environment -- but also to call for real, meaningful Senate action on climate change on the occasion of his 100th speech. Join me, my Senate colleagues, and a coalition of environmental groups as we stand with Sheldon today and join his call for the Senate to wake up to climate change and take swift action to curb carbon pollution now. I've watched Sheldon...

Team Newsom: Gov Newsom on Colbert

Image
  THANK YOU FOR YOUR ATTENTION TO THIS MATTER! Governor Newsom has received a lot of feedback on his recent social media posts on Twitter and TikTok. Democrats love it. Fox News cries about it relentlessly. But what they don't get is the irony of it all -- that it is putting a mirror up to the absurdity of Donald Trump. Watch this clip from Colbert last night. Thank you, Team Newsom

Michael: March for Climate, Jobs, and Justice on April 29

Image
Robert l., The March for Climate, Jobs, and Justice on April 29 is an opportunity for us to show solidarity with each other in the fight for a clean environment and fair economy.  Too often, those seeking to block our progress try to pit jobs against safe workplaces and a clean environment.  We know that’s a false choice.  We know we can have economic prosperity, environmental justice and equity for all people if we take the right actions now to address climate change, reduce income inequality, fight for racial justice, and safeguard the rights of all people. We’re going to the March for Climate, Jobs and Justice to show our support for taking action on climate and creating and sustaining good jobs by doing so.  Join us at the March for Climate, Jobs and Justice.  Union members, environmentalists, people of faith and community leaders will be there to show the solidarity that exists between all of us to have both a strong, fair ...

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...

Huma Abedin: Where meaningful action begins

Image
  Robert,    If you’ve ever left a conference wondering what now? — you’re not alone. That’s why I believe so deeply in the Clinton Global Initiative.   At CGI, the conversations don’t end when the meeting does. They lead to real partnerships, real commitments, and lasting results. It's a space where people from all walks of life come together to share and take action.   If you’re ready to move from intention to impact, I hope you’ll be part of CGI 2025. I’ve seen the power of CGI up close — not just in the headlines, but in the way it brings people together to deliver real solutions. Whether it’s expanding access to health care, advancing gender equity, or mobilizing resources in response to crisis, CGI helps turn shared purpose into measurable progress.   That kind of work doesn’t happen by accident. It happens because people show up, bring their full selves, and commit to doing the hard work together.   This September, we’ll come together again in N...

Mikie Sherrill : Here's the Deal

Image
  Hey, I know my team and I have been emailing you a lot recently asking for your support. But I wanted to take a second to explain why your support matters in this crucial race. Not only is my opponent, Jack Ciattarelli, endorsed by Donald Trump – he’s also a faithful advocate for the most disastrous elements of Trump’s agenda, and wants to implement them here in New Jersey. He was one of the biggest cheerleaders for the Republican price hike bill that will throw hundreds of thousands of New Jerseyans off their health care. And now, Ciattarelli’s being supported by a MAGA super PAC that’s pouring  millions of dollars  into negative ads that make one false assertion after another about my record and my character. In a race this close and with the stakes this high, we need to have the resources to be able to fight back, and we can only do that with your support. Can you split $10 (or whatever you can) between my campaign and the Voter Protection Project so we can stop our ...

Tim Waltz: I wanted Black Independents to hear it first

Image
      Black Independents, I wanted you to hear it from me first:  I’m running to continue serving as Governor of Minnesota. Here in Minnesota, we’ve cut child poverty, expanded labor rights, invested in education, made sure every student gets free breakfast and lunch at school, and so much more.  We’re putting people first — and giving folks the freedom to live their own lives the way they want to live them. But team , everything we’re building is under attack. Donald Trump and his fellow extremists are dismantling basic services like Social Security and Medicare, leaving working families behind, and threatening our freedoms.  That’s why I’m running — because we’ve got a lot more work to do, and I’m sure as hell not going to let MAGA extremists flip this state red. Will you stand with me and split a donation between my campaign and Adam Schiff to show that we are fired up and ready to win? Republicans want to gut your benefits and hand out tax breaks to bil...
