How will you help, Pete?

Let's keep tearing down barriers. Let's make sure women and girls have every chance to reach their potential. Get to work with OFA, right now.

Pete --

Today is Women's Equality Day.

It's a day to reflect on those who helped us get here, and recognize the generations of fearless women who fought for a better America -- one where everyone is treated equally and has access to the ballot box, regardless of gender.

It's a day to celebrate how far we've come, as over the past few decades women have made strides in every facet of American life. Today, more Americans understand than ever before: Our country succeeds when women succeed.

Under President Obama, we made big strides: We passed the Lilly Ledbetter Fair Pay Act. We established a White House task force to protect students from sexual assault.

We passed Obamacare -- and more women gained quality, affordable health care, as insurers were no longer allowed to charge them more because of their gender.

But we're not there yet -- and today is also a day to recognize how far we still have to go. I'm asking you, Pete: How will you help?

Even at this moment, in 2018, inequality and discrimination are still here:
  • Women, on average, earn less than their male counterparts -- and for women of color, the disparity is even greater
  • Outdated workplace policies make working parents choose between fulfilling their family responsibilities, and following the careers of their dreams
  • Basic health care and contraceptive rights for women are under attack
We've worked too hard to have our progress stopped now.

So here's what we can do, Pete: Get involved before the midterms.

If you believe women deserve equal representation in Congress, volunteer from now until November for one of the many amazing women running for office in 2018.

If you believe women deserve equal pay, fight to make it happen -- organize with your friends to make sure your elected officials know how important this issue is.

And if you believe our country is better when women are given the same opportunities to succeed ... show up on November 6, 2018, and vote for candidates who believe that, too.

Let's keep tearing down barriers. Let's make sure women and girls have every opportunity to reach their potential. Let's get to work, right now:

I'm in

Yachts

We deserve better from our representatives. Get to work today.
Organizing for Action
Robert --

On December 20, 2017, Republicans forced through a massive tax scam for the rich -- one that gave millionaires and corporations huge, unnecessary tax breaks, and added $1.9 trillion to our country's debt.

Almost immediately afterwards, they had the audacity to tell us they'd start looking at cuts for programs like Medicaid and Social Security to pay for it.

It was shameless.

Even worse, we found out that Republican Rep. Vern Buchanan (FL-16) -- a member of the Ways and Means Committee that wrote the bill, and a Congressman personally worth an estimated $74 million -- bought a massive yacht for himself on the same day he voted for the bill.

Just to be clear: Rep. Buchanan wrote and voted for a tax bill that put millions of dollars in his own pocket -- and cashed it in with a yacht the very same day.

Robert, as if we needed a clearer piece of evidence: These Republican representatives don't care about middle-class families, and it's time to hold them accountable.

They didn't care when they tried to gut Obamacare dozens of times, raising premiums and threatening millions of Americans' coverage. They didn't care when they passed this tax scam, despite nonpartisan estimates that showed taxes on middle-class Americans would go up in the coming years.

And they still don't care today.

This week, OFA volunteers showed up at offices nationwide. They hand-delivered personal yachts to representatives who voted for the tax scam, and showed how out of touch these representatives are with everyday Americans:

OFA supporters hand-delivered personal yachts to representatives who voted for this tax scam.

OFA supporters hand-delivered personal yachts to representatives who voted for this tax scam.

OFA supporters hand-delivered personal yachts to representatives who voted for this tax scam.

We need representatives who act in the best interests of their constituents -- and we can make it happen. Speak out against this tax scam:

I'm in

Thank you,

Jack
