ESPN just covered our virtual athletes summit

  I will admit, folks, that the thought of my name appearing on ESPN hadn’t crossed my mind since my days as a tight end on the football team at Stanford University. But last week, I was proud to join my Senate and House colleagues to host a virtual summit with current and former co…

Grateful

After midnight, my team will compile the records of every contribution we’ve received in the past three months and send it in a public report to the FEC.   We face a big fundraising deadline at midnight, but first I wanted to tell you how grateful I am. Grateful for you staying so enga…

Let’s make history together

  Friend, In 2018, supporters like you from across the country put us on our way to winning the most votes of any Democratic campaign in the history of Georgia state elections at the time. In 2020, you put Georgia’s electoral votes in the blue column for the first time in nearly thre…

Whip Clyburn is an inspiration

  Friends — few members of Congress command more respect for their accomplishments than my good friend, House Democratic Whip Jim Clyburn. The first Black South Carolinian elected to Congress since Reconstruction, Whip Clyburn has rebuilt the modern South Carolina Democratic Party fro…

Begged my dad for a dirt bike

  The little girl in this photo has no clue what a wild ride life has in store for her. Right now, all she knows is the joy of weekend camping with her family, tearing into her mom’s homemade meatballs, and begging her dad to buy her a dirt bike. Her Dad raised her on three principle…

The Emmett Till Antilynching Act

  Folks, In 2018, I introduced legislation in the Senate with then-Senator Kamala Harris and other colleagues to make lynching a federal crime. This was our first attempt to pass this, but we were by no means the first in history to do so. For more than a century, Congress failed at 2…

My decision

  Friends, I have about 15 minutes of free time in my schedule today. I know that doesn’t sound like a lot of time, but with a schedule like mine, I can assure you it’s a gift. I want to take a few of those minutes to tell you about my decision to run for Senate in the first place an…

Just thinking

  Is there anything we can say to convince you to donate to Cory’s campaign today, friend? What if we showed you Florida GOP Sen. Rick Scott’s entire 30-page plan for the Senate if Republicans flip the one seat they need to reinstall Mitch McConnell as Majority Leader? We won’t make y…

Re: Wisconsin Senate

  Friend — I’m reaching out to ask you to split a $10 contribution to my friend Mandela Barnes’ campaign for U.S. Senate and mine. Election experts rank Wisconsin as our number one opportunity to beat a Republican Senator. Mandela gives Democrats the best chance to do that. Wisconsin …

We need to fight back

  Folks, We’re almost a quarter of the way through 2022 so I wanted to take a moment and explain why our work in the months ahead is so important. On average, the president’s party typically loses 26 seats in the House and 4 seats in the Senate during the midterm elections. With our 5…

Trump just came to Georgia

It’s time we legalize marijuana at the federal level

We need to pass the Equality Act

re: Marco Rubio

Here’s why we can’t afford to lose even one seat

  One seat, friend. That’s all the GOP needs to reclaim control of the Senate, reinstate Mitch McConnell as majority leader, and roll back all of our progress. One seat may not seem like much, but it will determine whether we continue our momentum or see gridlock and dysfunction pave …

Short and sweet
