Danielle,
Democrats just won a mandate for bold action.
But the fight doesn't stop once we get new leaders sworn in. We still need a big grassroots movement to raise our voices and call for big, structural change.
That's exactly what we're building together, Danielle — and it's only possible because of grassroots donors like you.
Today's our January fundraising deadline. We have until midnight to hit our monthly fundraising goal, which will get us on the right track for the investments we need to make in grassroots organizing for the rest of the year — and I know this team can make it happen.
We've got to stay organized and keep pushing. That's how we defeated the most dangerous, corrupt president in modern American history. That's how we took back the House and the Senate. And that's how we're going to put power in the hands of the people, where it belongs.
I'm optimistic about everything we can get done this year to put our government on the side of working people — but we're not going to get anything done without a fight.
Together, we can fight to cancel student loan debt, root corruption out of Washington, pass a two-cent wealth tax to invest in opportunity for an entire generation, expand Social Security, ensure universal child care and universal pre-k, and more.
The rich and powerful are hoping that our grassroots movement will back out of the fight, now that Democrats have taken back Congress and the White House, so the special interests can keep trying to quietly run the show.
But we're going to fight harder than ever before — because the change we need has never been more achievable.
Elizabeth will keep fighting for real change and laying out big plans to fix what's broken in our country. As a member of this grassroots team, you have the power to keep her voice and our movement fr
Danielle,
We know this month has seemed so long, but remember: Just weeks ago, this grassroots team helped power Rev. Raphael Warnock and Jon Ossoff to victory in Georgia, taking back the Senate for Democrats!
Thank you for the part you played in these victories.
When we fight side by side, we win. And now that Democrats control the House, the Senate, and the White House, we can get so much done for working people.
But with the margin so close in the Senate, Elizabeth will need our grassroots movement to fight harder than ever from the outside while she works on the inside.
Elizabeth will keep fighting for real change and laying out big plans to fix what's broken in our country. As a member of this grassroots team, you have the power to keep her voice and our movement front and center at this critical moment.
There are lots of big changes that a Biden-Harris administration can achieve through executive orders and agency action right now. Like canceling billions of dollars in student loan debt, lowering drug prices for millions, enforcing health and safety standards for COVID-19, and restoring balance and competitions by cracking down on Big Tech and runaway Wall Street hedge funds and private equity firms.
Elizabeth is going to keep up the fight to get all this done and more — but she can't do it alone.
If we work together, if we fight together, if we persist together, we will make big, structural change together.

Danielle,
They were some of the most impactful moments of our presidential campaign.
Across five historic locations, Elizabeth gave five major speeches about extraordinary women across centuries who stepped out of their daily lives to fight for change.
Now, to keep highlighting those important stories, we've put together a print collection of those speeches, along with photos from the campaign trail and images from the historical events Elizabeth is discussing.
women who went on strike and won better wages and working conditions — from Black washerwomen in Atlanta, Georgia, to immigrant mill workers in Lawrence, Massachusetts, to Latina janitors in Los Angeles, California,
the difference that one persistent woman like Frances Perkins could make when fighting alongside a grassroots movement,
and the ongoing fight against the forces of division, greed, and corruption.
These women in history — whose stories aren't always told — laid out a roadmap for how working people of different races and backgrounds can come together, take on the rich and powerful, and make big, structural change.
And that roadmap has never been more necessary.
"Only Righteous Fights" is also a time capsule of the presidential campaign that we built together — from Elizabeth's announcement in Lawrence, Massachusetts, to her closing speech, and all the selfie lines and pinky promises along the way.
Commemorate these stories of persistent women throughout history — and help fuel the fight for the bold reforms we need.

Danielle,
It's a new year. We've got a new president, a new Democratic Congress, a new opportunity for our grassroots movement to make big, structural change — and a new monthly fundraising goal to hit for January to help make it all happen.
The past few weeks have shown us the huge difference between having leaders who try to tear down our democracy and leaders who fight to lift up working people.
Elizabeth is going to keep laying out plans for bold reforms that put power in the hands of the people. We'll keep fighting to make them happen, and working to elect Democrats who share our vision across the country. But we can only do it together.
Now that Democrats control the White House, the House, and the Senate (woo-hoo Georgia!) for the first time in about a decade, we have a real chance to make some real changes.
As Warren Democrats, we'll keep pushing for policies that will touch people's lives — like sending survival checks to working people, canceling student loan debt, expanding Social Security, ensuring universal child care and universal pre-k, and more — and address the root causes of the crises we face.
We'll keep highlighting new voices who are running for state and local offices — because that's how we make lasting change across the country.
And we'll be honored to keep fighting by your side, Danielle. If you can make your first donation to support Warren Democrats right now, it would go a long way to help hit our goal for January and hit the ground running for the rest of 2021.
There's been a lot of talk about unity recently. For me, unity is about doing the work that the American people want done.
There's been a lot of talk about unity recently, Danielle.
For me, unity is about doing the work that the American people want done.
It's not about ideology. It's not about helping just the richest Americans or some interest group — unity is about doing things that the American people want to see us do.
And you know one thing that unites Americans? Canceling student loan debt.
It's a hugely popular proposal that would immediately put hundreds and thousands of dollars back in the pockets of millions of Americans, start to close the racial wealth gap, and boost our economy.
And the president can get it done without waiting for Congress.
I'm partnering with Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer and Congresswoman Ayanna Pressley to set a bold plan for how Joe Biden can use his executive authority to deliver meaningful relief to struggling Americans and broadly cancel up to $50,000 in student loan debt.
We need to take action because families need relief. Over 40 million Americans are being crushed by over $1.5 trillion in federal student loan debt.
In the middle of an economy that's been badly hit by the pandemic, the student debt crisis acts like an anchor, preventing a swift recovery and restricting opportunity and prosperity for millions of American families.
Canceling student loan debt as soon as possible would mean substantial and immediate relief for tens of millions of Americans, many of whom have suddenly been laid off or are worried that their jobs are next.
And communities of color, which have been hit hardest by the health and economic consequences of the coronavirus pandemic, disproportionately bear the burden of student debt.
Black students are on average nearly 20 percentage points more likely to take out federal student loans. Half of Black borrowers and a third of Latino borrowers default on their loans within 20 years. Canceling student loan debt would increase wealth for Black and Latino families, help them avoid default, and start to close the racial wealth gap.
Economists agree that canceling student loan debt would also help boost our struggling economy through a consumer-driven economic stimulus, greater home-buying rates and housing stability, expanded access to more affordable financial products including car loans and mortgages, higher college completion rates, and greater small business formation. This is a no brainer for our economy.
Look: we all saw what happened in 2008. After the financial crisis, young people were shoved into a weak job market and plunged even deeper into student debt. And today, as workers face layoffs and frozen wages in the wake of the coronavirus pandemic, student loan borrowers who were barely staying afloat are now drowning. When Americans can't fully participate in our economy, we see a ripple effect across our entire economy and a slowdown in economic growth. This affects all of us, including those of us who don't have student loans or have already paid off their student debt.
