The climate crisis is here and hospitals are feeling the heat.

Friend — The last month has been hot. Historically hot. Dangerously hot. And this is only the beginning of our climate future if we don’t continue to take urgent action. Just look at how extreme heat begins to break down the infrastructure and systems we rely on to keep our economy and society …

JD Vance will say anything to get into MAGA power

Friend — Have you heard about JD Vance yet? He’s the freshman Senator from Ohio that Donald Trump has chosen to be his running mate. Now, there’s a lot we can say about JD. Like how he supports a full and total ban on abortion with no exceptions. Or how he voted against IVF access in the Senate.…

All in for Kamala

Friend — You’ve seen the news. Joe Biden has shown the nation a masterclass in leadership and patriotism by choosing to stand down and pass the torch. Now it’s up to us to take that mantle and beat Trump and the MAGA Far-Right up and down the ballot. So here’s the deal: I’ve worked with Kamala …

What Trump’s VP pick means for our race in Ohio

This is going to give my opponent a huge boost. Hi friend, it's official: the general election is here! Did you see the news? Donald Trump just announced his pick for vice president, and it’s my fellow Ohio Senator, J.D. Vance. Here’s what this means for our race: 1. Donald Trump and the entire G…

“If everyone reading this..."

Friends — You’ve probably heard or read me say the phrase, “If everyone reading this chipped in right now, we’d meet our goal today.” It’s kind of a mind-blowing idea, isn’t it? A contribution of $5 or $10 may not seem like much. And it’s certainly true that one person’s contribution alone isn’t…

Playing catch up

Friend — Truth is, we have to play a little bit of catch up this month. We did an incredible job hitting our big FEC fundraising goal last month, but so far our July fundraising is falling far behind. Look. I don’t want to be spending my time writing fundraising emails like this, trust me. I wou…

Friend — I’m sure you know by now that I try to be totally honest about our fundraising when I send you these emails. So here’s the truth: June 30th is an FEC deadline, which means that at the end of the month we’re legally required to report our fundraising numbers to the FEC. The FEC is the Fe…

Ed Markey’s desk

“Ed Markey’s desk was thrown out into the hall by the statehouse bosses because Markey fought to make judges work full time. Markey’s bill is now the law.” Friend — Ed Markey has always stood up to those in power to make our government work better for regular people like us. Just look back at one…

$5. That is the donation we are asking you to make to Ed Markey’s campaign before our May fundraising deadline closes in one week. Yes, just $5. $5 because this campaign doesn’t take a dime from Super-PACs or corporate lobbyists who have too much power in Washington. $5 because the number of don…
