John,   Since we launched our campaign, our average donation has been $25.97, a powerful sign of how much people like you believe in what we’re building.  In just a few weeks, we’ll hit our campaign’s first quarterly FEC deadline, and when our fundraising totals go public, those who don’t have our …

John,  A new dark-money group just elbowed their way into our race. In a democracy where the people choose, billionaires and corporations are doing everything they can to get their way.  They think they can play St. Louis like we won’t notice what’s really going on, but they are mistaken.   Can you…

They were wrong.  Now they’ve got a fight on their hands. I’m not just running for me, I’m running for all of us. For progressive…

The real con is you, Trump

I saw Trump’s comments last week about affordability being a Democratic “con job.” But you and I both know: the real con job is the President’s refusal to act while everyday families are struggling to survive.  When he ran for President, he promised to bring prices down on day one, and that didn’t …
