Hundreds of millions of dollars to keep Georgia red

Hi John, it's Team Hank Johnson for Congress reaching out with an important update. Campaign finance reports are finally in, and it's clear that Republicans are pumping in as much money as they possibly can to keep Georgia red: Rick Jackson has already reported raising more than $112,413,159 i…

Why I was arrested

John, on the anniversary of the passing of my friend and mentor, Congressman John Lewis, I am reminded of the terrifying fact that voting rights for Americans are shrinking. In 2013, there was a devastating blow to the Voting Rights Act of 1965, which had led to at least 23 states enacting newly-…

John, It's Team Hank here reaching out because Hank's End of Quarter Fundraising Deadline is tonight, and we're still $5,102 short of our goal. Hank knows just how important it is to win his seat—not just to flip the majority in Congress and block Trump's extreme agenda, but to help elect Dem…

This week's decisions could change our nation

John, It's Hank Johnson. As we inch closer to the end of the Supreme Court's summer term, I can't help but think about the possibilities: Right now, we're still waiting on their conclusion on birthright citizenship, Trump's rampant and discriminatory firings, mail-in ballots, campaign finance …

Juneteenth, Black voting power in Georgia, and why this moment matters

John, Right before Juneteenth, Georgia Republicans were this 🤏 close to diluting Black voting power by redrawing congressional maps (including this district) during a special session. After the MAGA Supreme Court eviscerated the Voting Rights Act, they empowered Southern white supremacists in …

$1.8 billion for J6ers. None for you.

John, Trump just announced a $1.8billion dollar taxpayer-funded slush fund. That's your money going to the white supremacists who stormed the United States Capitol after Trump lost the 2020 election. While Americans are dying in Trump's war of choice. While Americans are struggling to affor…

John Lewis was right, John.

John, in the wake of the Supreme Court's decision to gut what remains of the Voting Rights Act, I want to reflect on a quote from my mentor and friend, Congressman John Lewis. John, the denial of voting rights based on race remains a fact of life particularly in the South, and in my home stat…
