25 DAYS. U.S. SENATOR PATRICK LEAHY.

Green Mountain PAC
Friend,
We're just 25 days from Election Day, and the time to get involved in -- or double down on -- our work to take back the House and the Senate for Democrats is now.
Judge Kavanaugh's confirmation last Saturday made it clear we need to work as hard as ever around the country leading up to Election Day on Tuesday, Nove‌mber ‌6.
If you're not already involved with a campaign in your community, I'd encourage you to sign up to volunteer with Democrats to retake our government and our democracy between now and Election Day.
Since Trump took office nearly two years ago now, his administration -- aided by the GOP-controlled Congress -- has been relentless in their work to degrade our democracy and foster hate and division. They tried to strip health care from the millions of Americans with pre-existing conditions. They gave out a massive government handout to billionaires while raising taxes on middle-class Americans. They've set our nation, and the globe, back years in our fight against climate change.
The list goes on. The midterms could be a moment of reckoning for Trump and his Republican rubber stamps -- but only if we all put our heads down and get to work these final weeks.
Thank you for continuing to take action to push back against this administration.
Sincerely,
Patrick Leahy
U.S. Senator
VOLUNTEER »

Are you registered? MARK HERRING,VIRGINIA ATTORNEY GENERAL.

Are you registered to vote?
David,

I won my first race for Attorney General by 907 votes out of more than 2 million cast, so believe me when I tell you: Every. Vote. Counts.

Deadlines to register to vote in the 2018 elections vary around the country, so if you need to register, or want to make sure you're registered, go to:
We've got a real chance to flip the House and Senate to Democratic control, but it's only going to happen if we all vote, talk to our friends and family, knock on doors, make calls and chip in to support Democrats up and down the ballot.

Here in Virginia, we're all working our tails off to re-elect our great Sen. Tim Kaine and our outstanding Democratic representatives and send them even more Democratic colleagues from Virginia.

So make sure you're registered, and forward this email to a few friends and family members to remind them to check their registration or get registered.

We don't get to just sit on the sidelines this year – not after so many Americans have fought and bled for our right to cast our ballot, and especially not after what we've seen going on in Washington.
Your vote is your voice, so make it heard!

Thanks,
Mark

David vs. the NRA. HILLARY CLINTON, ONWARD TOGETHER.


 
 
 
David --

Some of the most painful and rewarding conversations I had on the campaign trail in 2015 and 2016 were with parents who had lost their children to gun violence. They told me about their grief, and also about their anger and frustration toward a political system that couldn’t seem to take action to prevent other kids from dying from unnecessary gun violence.

I was proud to fight for those parents, and I’m sorry that we weren’t able to make progress for their sake. But we have another chance this fall, when eight brave candidates for House and Senate will be on the ballot facing some of the gun lobby's biggest defenders.

Colin Allred, Jennifer Wexton, Jacky Rosen, Jason Crow, Susan Wild, Lizzie Pannill Fletcher, Josh Harder, and Mike Levin are working as hard as they can to talk to voters about how gun violence has affected their lives, and what we can all do to make our communities safer.

I’m proud to be teaming up with Senator Chris Murphy who spearheaded this campaign, a whole host of other Democrats in the Senate including my friend Senator Tim Kaine, and many of the organizations working to prevent gun violence in this effort to fight back against an influx of NRA spending in these seven districts and one state where our campaign won in 2016.

We can stand up to the gun lobby and stand up for our future. I know we can, and I’m counting on you to help do it.
 
Thank you,
Hillary.

Not the outcome we wanted (Kavanaugh). GUBERNATORIAL CANDIDATE MOLLY KELLY.

David –
This isn’t the outcome we wanted.
Yesterday, Brett Kavanaugh was confirmed to the Supreme Court. Now, women’s reproductive rights are in jeopardy.
It’s been a generation since we faced this big of a threat to reproductive rights. Despite Kavanaugh’s hostility to Roe v. Wade, Chris Sununu supported him anyway. A governor like that can’t be counted to protect women’s reproductive rights. 
State leadership has never been more important. As governor, I’ll protect a woman’s right to safe and legal abortion, and I’ll fight for LGBTQ equality and workers’ rights. 
By changing our state’s leadership, we can protect our values here in the Granite State. We have 30 days left to unseat a Republican governor and change the direction of our state.
Thank you to everyone who spoke out during this confirmation process. Women will no longer be silent. As governor, I’ll believe women, I’ll stand with them, and I will always listen to them.
This isn’t how this story ends. Together, we’ll protect our values in the Granite State.
With you in the fight,
Molly Kelly
