John, whenever I meet with voters, the first thing I do is grab a pen, take out my notebook and open to a fresh page.

Everything that voters share with me ends up in that notebook — their stories, their solutions to the problems facing our communities and their ideas for making our government work better.

When I head back to Washington and get to work in the Senate, I don't forget the stories and solutions I've heard on the road. Instead, I open up my notebook and get to work. These notes help me draft legislation to tackle the issues that matter most. And they ensure that the solutions I put forward will actually work for the families who need them.

Over the years, I've filled countless notebooks with these stories. And now, as 2023 gets into full swing, I've already made a dent in my newest notebook. But before I finalize my legislative priorities for the coming year, I need to hear from as many people as possible. 

You're one of my most reliable supporters, so I'm really hoping to have your input here: Please, will you take a moment to respond to my March Priorities Focus Group before it closes at midnight tonight? Here is your personal link:

Families know better than any Washington consultant what issues are facing our country — and more often than not they have a good idea for how to fix things. My job is to listen to voters, hear their solutions and make them happen. These notes help me do that job better. 

Stories in my notebook inspired legislation to stop gun trafficking, reform how our military handles sexual assault cases, expand benefits for veterans and so much more. As a public servant, there's no higher honor than being entrusted with a voter's story — and there's no greater victory than winning the change that voter needed.

As we head into a new year, there already are so many issues filling the pages of my new notebook — ensuring affordable day care, winning family leave, supporting our seniors, making health care affordable and more. But I want to make sure that I hear from you too, John. So please, will you take moment to join to my live focus group now? Here's your personal link again:

Thank you for taking a moment to share what issues are on your mind. I'm eager to read your responses and get to work on the issues that matter to you.

With gratitude and love,

Kirsten
