John,

I keep my promises. I’m going to Iowa on Friday because now, more than ever, the American people deserve someone to listen to them and give a damn about what they have to say.

While Republicans are doing President Trump’s dirty work—gutting critical programs and attacking our fundamental rights—they’re refusing to hold in-person town halls because they’re afraid of the backlash.

Listen, I’m an eternal optimist, but I can’t ignore reality: Things are dire right now. People want to speak out, but their representatives are hiding in Washington. That’s unacceptable. 

Democrats need to fill the space. We need to organize and show up where Republicans won’t. That’s what I’m going to do. I’m going to listen to and amplify ideas that matter and I’m going to let voters know that if their Representative won’t show up for them, Democrats will.

My biggest lesson from 2024? We need to flood the zone—on social media, in red districts and blue, and everywhere in between—and make sure every voice is heard.

John, if we want to take back the narrative, we have to show up and provide people with a megaphone loud enough to reach their representatives, even if they’re cowering in Washington. Can you chip in $10, $25, $50, or whatever works to help us bring this fight to every district, every voter, and every community?
