On the trail for our incredible candidates! JENNIFER WEXTON.

DAVID,

As Election Day nears, I'm not wasting a minute of time. I've had an incredible experience traveling throughout Northern Virginia to support the Democratic candidates who we need to win on November 5.

I spent last Sunday afternoon at an event for my friend, Supervisor John Foust. He's represented Dranesville for the last 12 years and has worked hard for our economy, our schools, our seniors, and our environment.

I also recently campaigned for Delegate John Bell. I’ve known John for years, and he’s the leader Loudoun and Prince William needs -- for our children’s safety, our transportation challenges, and our future.

And I've worked on behalf of Delegate Hala Ayala, who's an amazing champion for our families in Richmond -- helping expand Medicaid, getting teachers a much-needed pay raise, and fighting tirelessly for women and children.

We're not slowing in this final stretch! I've got many more events planned to help ensure that Election Day is a huge victory for Virginia Democrats...



Thank you,

Jennifer

NPR NEWS: 6 Takeaways From The 4th Democratic Presidential Primary Debate

6 Takeaways From The 4th Democratic Presidential Primary Debate The debate was a long one, about three hours. Elizabeth Warren faced new scrutiny, Pete Buttigieg controlled multiple exchanges and the potential conflicts of interest of Joe Biden's son got relatively little focus. Read More

WHAT A NIGHT. TOM STEYER.

I just walked off the Democratic National Committee’s presidential primary debate stage. 

DAVID, there are moments on the campaign trail when I’m acutely reminded why we need someone from outside Washington in the White House. Tonight, standing up on that stage talking about the shameful stranglehold that corporations have on our democracy and the lives of hard-working Americans, was one of those moments — and a very public reminder that the establishment has been unwilling or unable to address our most serious challenges. 

Too many people feel like their government has tossed them by the wayside. The sad truth, the truth that I am determined to tell, is that they’re right.

Our democracy has been victim to a hostile takeover by big, wealthy corporations that are rigging the system to put their CEOs and shareholders above real people. Whether it’s Big Pharma profiting off the opioid crisis while skirting accountability for the harm they’re inflicting or the National Rifle Association furthering the public health epidemic that is gun violence — corporations and lobbyists have a stranglehold on our government.

Our country is at a crossroads. We have a lawless president who is working for corporations and cozying up to dictators — at the expense of the American people. I know that the only way to take on this corruption is through the grassroots. That’s why this campaign works to reach people across the country day in and day out. It’s hard work, but this moment is too important to take the easy path. 

Tom Steyer.
