I know this message is long, but I hope you’ll take a moment to read it and be reminded of all the things we have been able to accomplish because of our victory in 2020.
When Kamala and I were sworn in over two years ago, the economy was on its back. Schools and businesses were closed. People were hurting. And far too many were mourning the loss of a loved one to COVID.
Kamala and I agreed that we couldn’t just rebuild the economy as it was before: we needed to build an economy from the bottom up and the middle out, not the top down. So we got right to work and passed the American Rescue Plan.
Today, our economy has recovered faster and stronger than any other developed country in the world, we’ve created more jobs in two years than any president in a four-year term, and the unemployment rate is near record lows.
And we didn’t stop there: we kept working to make progress on the issues that matter.
We passed the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law, kicking off a decade of rebuilding our country’s roads, bridges, highways, ports, internet, and railroads.
We passed the most significant gun safety legislation in over three decades.
We took on Big Pharma and won, capping the cost of insulin at $35 a month for seniors -- now, the biggest insulin manufacturers are lowering the cost for everyone.
We passed the Inflation Reduction Act, which is bringing down costs for working people and is the largest investment to combat climate change in U.S. history -- because I believe building a clean energy future starts in America.
When I look back at all the things we’ve accomplished together, I feel proud -- and I’m reminded that there’s so much more work for us to get done.
I know I don’t need to remind you what’s at stake in this election: the MAGA Republicans in this race want to drag us backward.
When they look at America, all they can see is carnage, darkness, and despair. They spread fear and lies for profit and power. When Kamala and I look at America, we see possibility.
If you’re with Kamala and me in this fight, can you pitch in a donation of $25 right now? Grassroots contributions from supporters like you are laying the strong foundation we’ll need to win in 2024.
If the last two years show you anything, it’s that there’s not a single thing beyond our capacity if we do it together. I am proud to have you in my corner.
Thank you,
Joe
