S/V Sundance: “How high?”

“How high?”

Powerful interests — fossil fuel giants, Big Pharma, billionaire CEOs, you name it — have a very handy tool at their disposal: piles and piles of money.

They use their money to fund campaigns for politicians who ask "How high?" when they say "Jump." They use their money to hire armies of lobbyists that swarm Capitol Hill. They use their money to put government on their side, all so they can make even bigger piles of money.

But we've got a powerful tool on our side too, Faith: a grassroots movement. And we're delivering results.

Side by side, we took back the House. We flipped the White House. We won the Senate. And we used that power to beat those powerful interests and make real change for working people, including:

The biggest-ever American investment in fighting climate change, which will help reduce carbon emissions by 40% by 2030.
The first-ever authorization for Medicare to negotiate lower prescription drug prices — and a guaranteed $35 cap on monthly insulin costs for people on Medicare.
A 15% minimum corporate tax — so billionaire corporations can't get away with reporting billions in profits and paying nothing in taxes.
Getting student debt canceled for millions of borrowers — despite the Supreme Court substituting politics for the rule of law and striking down President Biden's broader plan.

Democrats win when we go out there and unapologetically fight for the big, structural change we need — to stand up to powerful special interests and advocate for real change for working people. I'm going to continue fighting for this.

Grassroots supporters like you make it possible to defeat the powerful interests and put power in the hands of working people, where it belongs. But we've got a big fight ahead of us in 2024, and if the GOP gains any more power, they'll work to pass their extremist agenda and actively reverse all the progress we've made together.

Can you please make a donation of $28 or whatever makes sense right now to support our campaign and keep up the fight for our plans that will put more power in the hands of working people? Together, we can keep building a government that works for everyone, not just the rich and powerful.
