Fighting to Restore the American Dream on our 250th Birthday
Americans are preparing for the Fourth of July and our nation’s 250th birthday, but the mood is dampened by the reality of Donald Trump’s inflated cost of living. While we celebrate the values of freedom and opportunity, Trump is busy bragging about a disastrous economy that continues to crush working families and raise costs — all while he profits off the presidency and cashes in on his brazen corruption.
The self-dealing is staggering. The president has added $2.2 billion to his personal fortune since taking office. You’re paying for a $1 billion ballroom project decked with marble floors and gilded ceilings. In return, the people face soaring grocery costs and gas prices.
Meanwhile, Democrats are fighting tooth and nail to restore the American Dream and lower costs for everyday Americans — and we’re gaining real momentum. With the midterms rapidly approaching, we are flying through the summer with serious wind at our backs. We are seeing major Democratic wins in critical state and local seats across the map.
The energy from our grassroots supporters is driving us forward as this election season intensifies. This landmark Fourth of July serves as the perfect moment to celebrate our progress and connect with our communities. Together, we are building the strength needed to win big this November and start a new chapter in America’s story.
We are incredibly grateful to have you in this fight on our side!
On Fourth Anniversary of Dobbs Decision, Democrats Continue to Fight for Reproductive Freedoms
June 24 marked four years since the Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade, a date that Vice President JD Vance compared to Abraham Lincoln’s abolition of slavery. Since then, states across the country have restricted access to abortion or banned it entirely.
We’re shedding light on the truth, releasing a new mini-documentary showcasing how the decision allowed Georgia Republicans to enact one of the harshest abortion bans in America. Since 2022, this ban has threatened the lives and health of women in Georgia every year by limiting access to lifesaving care.
Women’s health advocates in Atlanta are emphasizing the importance of the upcoming midterms to elect leaders in Georgia who will work to protect women’s lives, safeguard their freedoms, and reduce maternal mortality rates in the state.
