I'm thinking about two anniversaries, Danielle. Two years ago today, COVID-19 was officially declared a pandemic. And one year ago today, President Biden signed the American Rescue Plan into law. Today, thanks in very large part to that relief package, vaccines and boosters are available in corner drug stores across the country. We've added millions of jobs in a historically speedy recovery. Students have been able to safely return to school. Struggling families got help to keep food on the table and a roof over their heads. So many small businesses got aid that kept them afloat. Now, make no mistake: Washington must do more to make sure everyone gets to be a part of this recovery. I'm still pushing for more relief to restaurants and gyms, and raising the minimum wage, and ensuring universal child care so we don't squeeze even more working moms out of the workforce, and getting vaccines around the world, and more. And we have to continue keeping our communities safe in this phase of the pandemic. But we've got a whole lot more tools now than we had a year ago — and a whole lot more hope than we had two years ago. Why? Because you stayed in the fight, even — especially — when it was hard. You helped flip the Senate, take back the White House, and elect Warren Democrats up and down the ballot who will put power in the hands of the people. And I'm deeply grateful. We're going to keep up the fight, side by side, so that one year from today, we'll have accomplished even more, and we'll have bigger Democratic majorities in the House and Senate. If you can, please make a donation today to help support our re-election campaign, expand our razor-thin Democratic majorities so we can get more done, and elect champions for working people across the country. Thanks for being a part of this, Elizabeth
