Team, it's Kirsten – do you have a moment?
I am proud to have led the charge to stand against Republicans' legislation for additional ICE and DHS funding. We have to hold ICE accountable, and this first step is a victory.
I spend every day fighting for the American people in the US Senate. But, with a Republican Senate majority that is complicit in Donald Trump's abuses of power, these fights haven't been easy.
But when we stand firm in our convictions, we can still deliver.
Thanks to Senate Democrats and the thousands of folks who called their Senators, Democrats successfully blocked Republicans' additional DHS funding.
Moving forward, ICE or DHS should not get another cent until we get serious reforms and accountability.
This fight is not over. Republicans have demonstrated time and again their hesitance to hold Trump and his lawless administration accountable.
We will continue to stand strong until Election Day, but we must understand that our best shot at the accountability and reform that this moment requires is flipping the Senate this November.
As chair of the DSCC, I am fighting day and night to elect Democrats to the Senate and retake our majority – finally giving us the opportunity to check Donald Trump's dangerous agenda. But our success is dependent on the strength of our grassroots movement and good Democrats like yourself.
So please, if you believe it's past time we have a Senate that will hold ICE accountable and check Trump's powers, I need you to help us fill our Senate Majority Fund with $15,000 by midnight tonight. Will you chip in anything you can today to help us flip the Senate blue in November? >> Your support makes all the difference.
Thank you,
Kirsten Gillibrand |
