Re: Protecting Our Kids Act

    John — Gun violence is the leading cause of death for America’s children, and it’s completely preventable. On Wednesday, I was proud to cast my vote for the Protecting Our Kids Act – a gun reform package that will make our communities and schools safer by addressing loopholes that allow guns…

The right-wing media mob is coming after Mondaire

    John — When you speak up against children being massacred by weapons of war and call out the GOP for their dangerous inaction on gun violence — a fire hose of right-wing attacks seem to follow. From Tucker Carlson to Trump’s favorite far right propaganda channel, OANN, the right-wing media h…

I’m being attacked by the GOP for trying to keep children from being massacred.

    Folks, Last night, Tucker Carlson devoted an entire segment to criticizing my efforts to ban assault weapons. Unlike my Republican colleagues, I will not stand by as kids across this country are gunned down.  I’m being attacked by the GOP because I want to do everything in my power to stop …

The meaning of Pride

    Happy Pride Month, John.  Pride is an opportunity to celebrate the progress the LGBTQ+ community has made, reflect on the work it’s taken to get here, and reaffirm our commitment to the work that remains to secure justice and equality for all LGBTQ+ people. At a time when LGBTQ+ rights, and …

Asking for just $5

    Hey John — it's Gian. As Mondaire’s Finance Director, I know firsthand how impactful a donation as small as $5 can be.  It’s a critical investment in electing strong progressive candidates like Mondaire fighting to defend our democracy against the GOP’s anti-democratic agenda. It’s an invest…

Three things you need to know

    Hey John, With only two days until our May fundraising deadline expires, we hope you’ll give our campaign a chance to explain three reasons why your donation is more critical than ever before: 1. Mondaire is officially running for another term in Congress in the newly created NY-10 district,…

FWD: Why I’m running in NY-10

    John, have you heard the news?! After the final congressional map was released last week, Mondaire announced that he is running for another term in Congress in an open seat in the newly created NY-10 district.   The re-drawn map is just one of the GOP’s many attempts to reduce the number of …

We are leading by just one point

      John, A new poll shows we are leading in the race for NY-10 by just ONE point over former NYC Mayor Bill de Blasio. On top of that, the vast majority of voters are still undecided. Our grassroots organizing work is paying off, but de Blasio is already on our heels. We can’t let up now. The…

My primary opponent

Why I’m running in NY-10

Will you take your support to the next level?

Re: waiting for our new map

Sign on to Mondaire’s petition: Cancel student debt

  John, Since the outbreak of COVID-19, President Biden has extended the pause on student debt payments three times. Despite what naysayers have suggested, the world has not imploded and our economy hasn’t tanked since payments were paused at the beginning of 2020. Not only is canceling student …

Re: the midterms

  This is alarming, John — the National Republican Congressional Committee — or NRCC — just reported raising a record-breaking $19.4 million last month. We could lose our Democratic House majority if we don’t start preparing now. In 2020, Republicans flipped 15 House seats — and this November, t…
