| Dear John, As this year comes to a close, one thing is clear: 2025 will be remembered as a turning point — because Americans like you chose to lead. Before Washington debates heated up or votes were cast, concerned citizens were already speaking out about rising prices, shrinking paychecks, and a government that too often felt unaccountable. And when the moment for change arrived, lawmakers heard you — because Americans showed up early and stayed engaged. Here’s what that leadership delivered: ✅ Tax relief for working families — Historic tax cuts that stopped what would have been the largest tax increase in American history. ✅ Fiscal responsibility and energy opportunity — Reforms that curbed reckless spending while expanding American energy production and affordability. ✅ Border security — Stronger enforcement and accountability to restore order and uphold the rule of law. ✅ Patient-centered health care — Blocking the expansion of Biden-era Obamacare subsidies riddled with abuse and advancing reforms that put you back in control. These weren’t top-down mandates. They were bottom-up victories. Americans across the country took action at an unprecedented scale: - Connected with more than 1 million Americans
- Knocked 525,000+ doors
- Made 500,000+ phone calls
- Hosted 800+ grassroots events
- Sent 100,000 letters to Congress
Those actions mattered. Lawmakers didn’t just hear from lobbyists — they heard directly from the people affected by their decisions. And as one U.S. senator put it at the time, AFP was a critical ally in getting these reforms across the finish line. But the real credit belongs to Americans who proved what’s possible when people lead before it’s “urgent” — and stay involved after the headlines fade. Now the stakes are rising again. In 2026, Americans are stepping up to confront the affordability crisis head-on. 👉 Watch how we’re fighting to stop families from being crushed by the cost of living. |
