Our campaign was just featured in The Washington Post!

 

I wanted to reach out personally to share that our campaign was featured in The Washington Post today!    Everyone is looking for answers for how to respond to this administration, and in time, what we need to do to win back the House.  Here’s my take: we need to talk about real things, with a real agenda to improve people’s lives. We can’t just be against the things we don’t like. We need a positive vision for how we will address the challenges working families face. We need to talk about Americans being able to work just one job and build a middle-class life, lowering the costs of child care and prescription drugs, protecting fundamental rights, and making sure everyone can access quality, affordable health care. We have the ideas – we need to run on them and then get them done. That’s what our campaign is about. That’s why we won a district that Donald Trump carried by two points. And I’m so heartened to see people taking notice. But our work is far from done. The spotlight on our coalition is a testament to the growing demand for a new way forward. A way that doesn’t rely on empty rhetoric but on bold policies that actually improve people’s lives. This campaign isn’t just about winning an election – it’s about building a future where working people have a real shot. But to do that, we need to keep up the fight, and we can’t do it without you.

WE CAN'T IGNORE THE IMPORTANCE  OF MEDICAID! excerpt:  SAGINAW, Michigan — When Rep. Kristen McDonald Rivet (D-Michigan) had breakfast recently with a dozen beet farmers from her state, she knew without having to ask that most of them had voted Republican. Though the agenda for this meeting was the federal sugar program, she turned the conversation to how Medicaid would be devastated under the GOP-passed House budget. More rural hospitals could go under in a state where many people already have to drive two hours to get to one, she told them. And she noted that close to half the births in Michigan are covered by Medicaid.
