Emily: Pete Hegseth decided he's going to censure me, and is threatening to demote me and reduce my pension. I got shot at in service to this country. I missed holidays and birthdays. I commanded a space shuttle mission and launched to the International Space Station while my wife recovered from a gunshot wound to the head. My rank and retirement are things that I earned through my service and sacrifice for this country. Generations of servicemembers have done the same.

| Emily, Happy New Year! It's officially 2026, and we've gotten a jump start on our New Year's resolutions. Here they are: Flip the House and the Senate so we can stop Trump's disastrous agenda in its tracks. Elect Democrats at all levels of government who will fight for a more fair, just, and affordable future for their cities, districts, and states. Organize everywhere to win anywhere. To elect as many Democrats as possible, we need to continue investing in state Democratic Parties, recruiting and training volunteers, supporting candidates nationwide, and having impactful conversations with voters across the country to ensure they know what's at stake this year. But Emily, the thing about New Year's resolutions is that they aren't accomplished overnight. We know achieving these goals is going to take hard work and diligence all year. And to do it, we have to start now. So today, we're asking you to join us and chip in $7, or whatever you can afford, to power our fight to elect Democrats up and down the ballot this year and beyond. We'll put your donation to work immediately as 2026 gets underway: If you've stored your info with ActBlue, we'll process your contribution instantly.
