Excited to finally see @joedinkin of @WorkingFamilies posting on this site on this day. No one has worked harder without credit in all the tough places to build strategic coalitions to throw out these grifters and install leaders accountable to workers. Watch his posts for insights from the field
Today is a good day to toss a corrupt cabal of billionaires and their allies out of power and put in some champions for working people.

Elon Musk ALONE has spent more on backing Republicans in this year's midterms ($474 million) than John McCain's entire 2008 presidential campaign raised and spent ($401m) but who is to say if billionaire spending has gone too far.

It's time to bring down the sky-high gas prices caused by Trump’s reckless Iran war.
Progressives have a plan: tax the record profits that Big Oil is making, and put money back in people's pockets. @RepCasar

Counterpoint from new CPC PAC Memo: CPC's Red-to-Blue candidates are fighting in unprecedented territory. Will Lawrence has seen $27 million spent against him. Randy Villegas has faced at least $18 million.

New memo from The Bench (@ElectTheBench)
After E day don't just look at who wins, look at who overperforms.
Our bet: it'll be a smoke jumper in MT, firefighter in PA, fourth generation farmer in NC, teacher in FL, music star in the RGV, and religious leaders in IA, KS, and TX

NEW - Rep. @GregCasar wants Dems to think big post midterms (or even do reconciliation bills if they take the Senate)
If Trump vetoes Dem bills? “then exactly the platform upon which we beat JD Vance or whoever else in 2028.”

The stakes are high, and the choice is clear. @bradlander and I urge Michiganders to vote for Abdul El-Sayed, a leader who will fight for a healthier, safer, and more just future for all.

💯
El-Sayed: None of this matters. You know what matters? There are families who are preparing to send their kids to schools tomorrow that look like they did 50 years ago. They're worried about what they're going to feed their kids for lunch. They're worried that if one of their kids gets sick, they're not going to be able to pay the bills. Those are the things that matter.

Daniel Biss and @bradlander pen a joint statement reaffirming support for @AbdulElSayed and urging Michiganders to vote for him.
“Mike Rogers does not align with the values of the Jewish community” they write
No direct mention of Haley Stevens in the statement:

Let’s be clear about one thing.
Dr. Abdul El-Sayed will always put the American people first and fight hard to lower the high cost of living.
His election is critical to flipping control of the United States Senate.
Mike Rogers is a partisan hack who represents more of the same MAGA extremism.
Vote @AbdulElSayed in Michigan!

Disappointed & angry. I regret supporting Haley Stevens.
There’s lots to be said about her implosion. But it’s clear all she wants is more attention. Don’t give it to her.
Let’s do everything we can to elect @AbdulElSayed. Too much is at stake.

Sam Forstag is building something special in Montana
Montana could unexpectedly elect a Democratic candidate next week.
The state has been going redder and redder in recent years, but wildland firefighter and union leader Sam Forstag has a real chance to get into Congress in just a few days.
People across Western Montana say Trump duped them, prices didn't go down, and across party lines voters look ready to rebuke Trump and the Republican Party.
"It doesn't matter what letter is behind their last name. It's whether or not they have working people in mind and they're gonna take care of us."
