Hi John,
This week, I’m introducing myself to even more voters with our newly released campaign video that’s centered on the big issues: health care, housing and racial justice. I’m inviting Delawareans to become a part of a movement, and I need your help.
Voters are getting their mail-in ballots, and we need to make sure they know who will fight for them.

As you know, the COVID-19 pandemic has exacerbated the crises working people must contend with. Collectively, we are facing the grim reality of our failing systems — for health care, housing and racial equity — in the midst of a public health emergency and national Black Lives Matter protests.
These systems have increased inequality and continually barred working-class people from the things we need in order to live. They weren’t meant to work for people like you and me.
We need to fight for a more livable world. Will you donate $27 to our movement?

In the past several months, over 50 MILLION Americans filed for unemployment benefits. And the U.S. government responded: Congress sent workers nearly $250 billion in unemployment insurance through $600-a-week checks, according to a recent report from the Wall Street Journal.
But here’s what I want to know: Now that the $600-a-week checks from the federal government have dried up, did anyone run the numbers on what it will cost us to deny this money to our most vulnerable? We’re navigating a pandemic, and we’re not giving our people access to housing, health care, or money to put food on the table. We are paying for these failing systems with our lives.

In solidarity, Jess
