Critically Important Work Continues: Here’s How You Can Help this Week

We’ve been working in solidarity with progressives in Congress who are demanding that our agenda, the agenda backed by the vast majority of citizens in the United States, remain in a maximally robust reconciliation bill.

Our team in Arizona played a leading role in drafting and passing an AZ Democratic Party resolution by an 80-20 margin demanding that Senator Kristen Cinema vote right—even if it means voting an end to the filibuster—or she’ll face a vote of No Confidence or Censure from the state party.

We’ve been fighting for a federal reconciliation bill that is maximally robust with expanded Medicare benefits and no fossil fuel subsidies, standing for the passage of the Freedom to Vote Act and the John Lewis Voting Rights Advancement Act, along with supporting prosecution of Jan. 6th insurrectionists, and working for justice for Afghan refugees.

Join us as we keep putting one foot in front of the other, getting closer to our goal of a more progressive world for all.
