Robert,

We are at a moment right now. The systemic racism that runs so deeply and freely throughout this country is on full display and America is crying for a change. Countless slayings of unarmed black men, a militarized police force with no standard of accountability, a President who wants nothing more than to fuel violence and fear – America is crying for a change. Black Lives Matter. Our time is now.

The New York Times just published an article on the 922 most powerful people in this country. Of them 742 are white and 180 aren’t. I’m one of the 180 and I want to make sure you understand how important that is. I’m here because of you. Your support has given a young progressive Black woman a seat at the table and we can’t afford to lose it. The work we are doing in Baltimore City is too important. We are front and center on a national stage right now paving the way for a desperately needed evolution of criminal justice reform. We can’t let this moment pass.

New accountability leads to exposure which leads to reform. The work I am doing matters, and you’re the reason I get to do it. You’ve been part of this from the beginning – but right now I need your help. If you want to help change the trajectory of racism, support this campaign. We have a seat at the table. I’m asking you to help me keep it.

Thank you so much for your continued support!

Marilyn

Team Newsom: Gov Newsom on Colbert

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

FIVE STORIES PRESIDENT TRUMP DOESN'T WANT YOU TO MISS Trump: Sudan to Join UAE, Bahrain in Recognizing Israel -The Associated Press “President Donald Trump announced Friday that Sudan will start to normalize ties with Israel, making it the third Arab state to do so as part of U.S.-brokered deals,” Deb Riechmann and Matthew Lee report. “Sudan had demonstrated its commitment in battling terrorism. ‘This is one of the great days in the history of Sudan,’” President Trump said. 🎬 BREAKING : Israel and Sudan have agreed to make peace! Tech Censorship Is on a Dangerous Path -The Daily Signal “The titans of social media, [Jack] Dorsey at Twitter and Mark Zuckerberg at Facebook, lead their companies the way China does. These men want to control what the public sees, which enables them to better monitor and, ultimately, influence every aspect of society and life,” Armstrong Williams writes. “It is hard to imagine a more insidious effort to subvert freedom of speech, ex...

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...

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...

Why I filibustered for gun violence prevention Friend -- I was the Congressman from Newtown, Connecticut when tragedy struck Sandy Hook Elementary School on December 14th, 2012. As long as I live, I’ll never forget the scene at the firehouse when twenty-six families were told they would not be reunited with their children and loved ones. For years, Congress has failed those families and the victims of gun violence all across the country. That is why yesterday, starting at 11:21 a.m., I decided to stand on the Senate floor and talk for as long as I could about the need to prevent gun violence. And with the help of more than 30 of my colleagues, we demanded immediate action to make our communities safer from gun violence: I can tell you that as the hours progressed, my colleagues heard your calls for change grow louder and louder. And after almost fifteen hours of filibustering, I was proud to be able to announce that Republicans had agreed to our demand for ...

Robert, I'm not much for small talk so I'll get right to it - America is surrounded by determined enemies that want to destroy our way of life. The Constitution, our liberty, all of our values are meaningless to them. ISIS, Iran, North Korea - the list is long and threats are very real. In order to defeat that kind of hate we need real leadership. The kind that takes guts. That's why I'm asking you to join me in strongly supporting John McCain for reelection to the United States Senate with an urgent contribution of $25, $50, $100, or whatever you can afford. To defeat America's enemies, we need our very best men on the job. And without John McCain in the Senate, we're simply taking it easy on terrorists and radicals. Robert, we can't take patriots like John McCain for granted. He's also the top target for the liberal establishment who will do anything they can to see him defeated. That's why I need you to join me by making an urgent contri...

Robert, The right to vote is as American as it gets – more even than baseball and apple pie. Which makes some state Republicans’ efforts to systematically disenfranchise minority and elderly voters unconscionable. GOP extremists are pushing voter ID laws, purges of eligible voters and shorter polling hours. And, by overturning a key section of the Voting Rights Act, the Supreme Court made it easier for states to enact anti-voter laws. Enough. I’m joining with the Democratic Governors Association to tackle this from all angles – in Congress, where I’m partnering with Rep. John Lewis to pass a legislative fix, and in GOP-controlled states, where the most egregious anti-voter tactics are being deployed. Send the message right now that we will do whatever it takes to overcome attacks on our democracy. Click here to join the DGA and me by adding your name to the growing chorus of Americans calling for expanded voting rights. My Voter Empowerment Act would expand...

Tuesday, December 31, 2013 Lights. Camera. Education! Are you a student filmmaker? Know someone who is? We want your help. If you're a student, we want you to make a short film -- and have the chance to show it right here at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue for the first-ever White House Student Film Festival. If you're a parent or a friend, pass this on to a student you know. The topic? Technology in classrooms. There's huge power in what technology can do for education -- from taking a course online, to collaborating with students from across the country (or the world!). We're looking for awesome student filmmakers to show the power of technology in classrooms in a short film. If that sounds like you -- or someone you know -- go to WhiteHo...
