Tammy is a true trailblazer. She’s a combat Veteran,

 

 

Hi -- Democrats' majority in the Senate is incredibly thin, which means we need to protect every seat if we want to keep making progress on issues like infrastructure, climate change and more. My friend Tammy Duckworth is up for reelection next year, and I could use your help to make sure she stays in the Senate. Will you split a donation between Tammy and me today?

If you've saved your payment information with ActBlue Express, your donation will go through immediately and be split between Amy Klobuchar and Tammy Duckworth:

Tammy is a true trailblazer. She’s a combat Veteran, a mother who was the first senator to give birth while serving in office, and a fierce advocate for working parents, our Veterans and troops as well as for environmental justice. But national Republicans think they can win her seat and what’s more, they’re already targeting her.

I want you to think about everything we've achieved together over the past six months, from helping millions of Americans access the COVID vaccine to providing financial relief to families with children. This was only possible because of the Democratic majority in the Senate. If we lose it, all of our progress could grind to a halt.

That's why it's so critical that we defend Tammy's seat. Republicans are taking her race seriously and so must we.

Will you chip in today to support Tammy Duckworth and help Democrats hold on to the Senate?

-- Amy

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 ...

Jeanne: I’ll be straight with you

Image
I’ll be straight with you, robert. The most important race happening in 2020 isn’t the race for president – it’s the race for control of the Senate. The party that wins the Senate will decide the future of health care, voting rights, even the Supreme Court.  And everyone from FiveThirtyEight to Roll Call is now saying that Democrats  cannot regain the Senate majority if we lose in New Hampshire. That’s why Republicans are coming after me in a big way – with GOP groups spending more money to defeat me than all the other in-cycle Democratic senators  combined . Now, after Mitch McConnell’s right-wing group just launched their first round of attack ads against us, we’ve got to raise another $7,000 before midnight tonight to fight back and protect our chance to take back the Senate. But, robert, we just can’t do it without your donation right now. If we lose this race, we  cannot  take back the Senate for Democrats – plain and simple. And we cannot win...

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...

Tom: My Alma Matter

Image
Chabot College is a rambling series of academic buildings situated on 94 acres in Hayward, California. It offers more than 100 associate degrees and certificates, an intercollegiate national championship-winning ultimate disc team, and parking for a couple thousand cars. It's also my alma mater. Chabot's a community college -- and in the early 1970s, it was all free, save for the effort you put into it and the price of used textbooks. As a student there, I went to school alongside Vietnam vets, moms, and middle-aged men, as well as a few thousand young people like me who needed time to sort out our lives and our options. We were looking to get our general education requirements out of the way, to learn skill sets to improve our employment prospects, or to discover the road to new, unimagined careers. We all found a different home at Chabot, but it welcomed all of us. Later today, the President is heading to Watertown, South Dakota to deliver the commencement address a...

Chuy: Rahm cut the budget

Image
Dear robert-- Two weeks ago, we asked Chicagoans to share their stories of real life under Rahm's administration. The response was overwhelming. Dozens and dozens of people told us about difficulties they've experienced due to failed policies and wrong priorities. Now, we are asking you to pick the story that should be made into a video. With the authors’ permission, we've selected three stories that reflect concerns common for many people: Pick a story and chip-in $10, $20, or more, to cover the costs of making a video and promoting it widely. If a story collects $5,000, we can proceed with production.  Debra's story: Both of our two daughters are Special Ed kids and take buses to school. Our older daughter has severe cerebral palsy. If there is no bus aide, she is unable to ride the bus to school.  Rahm cut the budget for both bus aides  and classroom aides… Read the full story and then chip-in $10 to make it a video > Maribel...

Kirsten: Im ready to fight the Trump Country club Cabinet

Robert, I believe public servants should place the needs of others above partisan ideology and corporate profits. I have never seen anything like the extremism and disdain for working Americans shown by many of President Trump's Cabinet nominees.  They are determined to shutter public schools, cut Medicaid and Social Security, silence climate scientists and rip health care from tens of millions of Americans. I’m fighting back every day in the Senate. But as I take on President Trump’s country club Cabinet, I need to hear your priorities. What is most important to you as the Senate considers these nominations? Protecting our students? Addressing climate change? Defending health care?   Click here to share your concerns in a short survey. Thanks for sharing your thoughts. Kirsten This email was sent to bondfilesinc@yahoo.com.

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

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: 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...
