John, I know it's frustrating

Suzan DelBene for Congress John, If there's one word that I've learned the value of in these past few years, it's perseverance. Frankly, it's frustrating to watch Mitch McConnell and his allies strike down nearly every single piece of legislation that the Democrats bring forward,…

Call on Mitch McConnell to stop the obstruction

John, here's what I think:

Suzan DelBene for Congress John -- The contrast couldn't be more clear: Kevin McCarthy and his colleagues in the House stand for making it harder for folks (and especially people of color) to vote. They don't believe in LGBTQ+ equality. And they believe in giving huge corporation…

John, I refuse to let it happen

Suzan DelBene for Congress John -- The other side has what you might call a troubled relationship with facts -- to say the least. We're up against a Republican Party that will spend anything, say anything, and do anything to stop President Biden's agenda and take back the majorit…

re: the Equality Act

Suzan DelBene for Congress John, Did you see Suzan’s note earlier? This Pride, the rights of LGBTQ folks across this country are being threatened. Suzan is proud to stand up for LGBTQ equality -- that’s why she co-sponsored the Equality Act when it passed the House earlier this y…

Add your name: Make the Equality Act law

Suzan DelBene for Congress John, Every June, we celebrate the LGBTQ community and the ongoing struggle for equality and dignity for all LGBTQ Americans. But once again, their rights are being threatened. On the first day of Pride Month, Florida Governor Ron DeSantis signed an ant…

A worrying series of events

Suzan DelBene for Congress John, A year ago, on Memorial Day 2020, we were in the deadliest days of the worst pandemic in a century -- and we couldn’t begin to imagine how hard the year ahead would be. But now, thanks to the efforts of researchers and health care workers, we c…

We can’t afford to lose the House majority, John

Suzan DelBene for Congress John, Donald Trump’s presidency exposed the cracks in the Republican party -- and even now that he’s out of the White House, his hold over the GOP is still a threat to our democracy. Earlier this month, my colleagues across the aisle stripped Rep. Li…

Speaker McCarthy
