Last night -- I joined Chris Hayes on MSNBC to talk about the fight for democracy, free speech, and how we move forward together.

Taking care of one another and holding Trump and his Republican accomplices accountable at the ballot box are not mutually exclusive. We must do both.

Courage is contagious. When we band together as communities -- whether that’s in Hawaiʻi or anywhere across the country -- we can defend our values and protect our democracy.

Please take a moment to watch my conversation with Chris. And if you’re able, make a contribution today to support my work to elect Democrats and keep up this fight.

Mahalo,

Brian

P.S. We’re facing an important FEC deadline at the end of the month -- and it actually matters. Every campaign is legally required to report their fundraising totals to the Federal Election Commission. This isn’t just a gimmick. It’s real, it’s public, and how much we raise before the quarter is over sends a powerful message about the strength of our movement.
