Jason, How do you feel right now? Knowing that Democrats won big across the country this week? Knowing that — together — we delivered a stunning rebuke of Trump, his cronies, his hideous ballroom, and his harmful policies? We feel pretty good. Now the question is: If you knew that chipping in $7 to the DNC right now would help us feel this way again on November 4, 2026 — the day after Election Day — wouldn't it be the best $7 you've ever spent? The truth is that Democrats were only able to deliver big wins this week because grassroots supporters stepped up and chipped in. If we want to win even bigger in the midterm elections and put a major check on Donald Trump's power in January of 2027, we can't let this momentum slow. Not even for a second. So, Jason, will you chip in $7 today to help us carry this momentum straight into the midterms? Your donation will help us build the infrastructure we need to win — up and down the ballot in all 50 states. If you've stored your info with ActBlue, we'll process your contribution instantly.

I believe these things because I was a waitress.  
The right wing would have you believe that my American values are something out of the communist manifesto: 
But I don't believe in healthcare, labor, and human dignity because I'm an extremist. I believe these things because I was a waitress. Because I've worked double shifts to keep the lights on. Because I did lose a parent to cancer and I saw my mom open the hospital bill a couple of days later. Because on my worst day, I know what it feels like to feel left behind. I don't want any of us to live like this anymore. We deserve better. In solidarity, Alexandria  
And now she's running for NY governor.
Elise Stefanik sold out the healthcare of 17 million Americans as part of a failed bid to be Trump's UN ambassador – and now she's running for NY governor. New York deserves so much better than someone who would gut Medicaid and Medicare for their own career ambitions. That's why this summer, Rep. Paul Tonko and I hosted a town hall in her district: to organize people to support one another. And we are going to win. 
Whether you can donate today or not, thank you so much for being a part of this movement. In solidarity, Alexandria  
Remember this feeling:   | Jason, The tide is turning. Democrats just won critical elections nationwide — showing Donald Trump and the entire Republican Party that we are not done fighting.  Mikie Sherill won her race to be elected the 57th governor of New Jersey, and will be the first Democratic woman to hold the office. As governor, Sherill is determined to protect the working class and support the programs that everyday New Jerseyans rely on, including Social Security, public education, and Medicare and Medicaid. She vows to fight back against the Trump administration's destructive policies and ensure that New Jersey is a safe and affordable place for all. And that wasn't the only big win. Democrats swept races across the country, from New York City to Virginia and Pennsylvania to California to Georgia to Maine. Across the map, we put up strong candidates, ran strategic campaigns, and drove high Democratic turnout with a relentless focus on what matters most to people — affordability and kitchen table issues. With these victories, we will enter 2026 with strong momentum, and we're just getting started. Today is the day that all of us must shift our attention to replicating this week's wins and taking back Congress. Not tomorrow, not next week, but today. Will you turn your excitement into action with a $7 contribution to help us lay the groundwork to take back Congress next year, and ultimately win the White House in 2028?

"Waste, fraud, and abuse"
Republicans have kept the government shut down for 37 days because they think it's "waste, fraud, and abuse" to give healthcare to more than 22 million Americans. 22 million Americans receive ACA subsidies because they don't get insurance through their job, are too young for Medicare, and not poor enough for Medicaid.1 MAGA wants insurance premiums to double for 22 million Americans on January 1. Why? Because they've been given an assignment to rob Medicaid, Medicare, and Social Security to pay for tax cuts for billionaires. Now, they want to sign onto one, little, extra year of ACA subsidies. Want to know why? Midterm elections are taking place next year. They want us to fall for the same old fine-print, tricks, and politics around this. It is laughable. But Alexandria and our movement are standing up across the country against these attacks on the working class. Will you chip in $5 today to power our fight to demand healthcare, a living wage, and so much more as basic rights? Contribute $5 Whether or not you can give today, thank you for standing with our movement.

One year ago, I got the call that I was not going to win the election. I walked down the stairs to my family in shock. All I could do was repeat, over and over, "What will happen to our country?" As I have heard these last few months from people across our nation and around the world, many of you felt the same way. Over the past year, we have seen Donald Trump use the presidency to line his own pockets and enrich billionaires; target SNAP, Medicaid, and programs for our veterans; terrorize our immigrant communities; deteriorate our national security; and put our economy at risk of recession. I could go on. And I fear it may get worse before it gets better. I predicted all of it. I warned of it. What I did not predict: the capitulation. The number of people who have bent the knee at the foot of a tyrant has been profound. So what do we do? The answer for how to move forward will not come out of Washington, D.C.. The change that we want and the improvement that we need must come from the people. And the people are already speaking. Millions of Americans have taken to the streets in protest out of love of our country and belief in its promise. Millions more headed to the polls on Tuesday to resoundingly elect local Democratic leaders who will fight for progress in their communities. We must harness that power to come up with a blueprint for our government that truly works for the American people. We must continue speaking out and listening when the people say, "This is how I want my government to work for me." My work now is focused on amplifying those voices and uplifting the next generation of leaders as we continue this fight. We have some serious work to do to reimagine our vision for our country, and I need you with me. So I am humbly asking: Will you mark one year into this next chapter by making a donation to support my work today? Every donation sends a powerful message that the people will not give up on our country. If you've stored your info with ActBlue, we'll process your contribution instantly: We will not retreat from this fight. It may take a while, but the fight for our country is always worth it. And we will win.
