IMPORTANT ISSUES! THESE ARE NOT SOLICITATIONS
SHARING AS A REMINDER THAT JIM CROW AS A METHOD OF PREVENTING
BLACKS FROM VOTING WAS NOT THAT LONG AGO....A POLL TAX PREVENTED
MANY FROM VOTING....
WE'VE COME TOO FAR TO ALLOW TRUMP TO DISENFRANCHISE VOTERS -
A CONSTITUTIONAL RIGHT HE LACKS THAT WILL BE DEFEATED IN THE
COURTS!
MAIL-IN VOTING EXPANDS VOTER PARTICIPATION - THAT'S WHAT WE
WANT!
THERE ARE NUMEROUS REASONS WHY MAIL-IN BALLOTS ARE
NECESSARY - WE VOTED BY MAIL WHEN LIVING OVERSEAS! MANY PEOPLE
TRAVEL AND ARE OUT OF TOWN ON ELECTION DAY....MANY ARE DISABLED
OR LACK TRANSPORTATION - IT'S NOT FOR US TO REGULATE -- EVERY
ELIGIBLE VOTER SHOULD HAVE THEIR OPPORTUNITY TO VOTE!
 I want to talk to you about Trump’s attack on the right to vote. This is important to me — and what’s happening right now matters more than ever. But before I continue, can you chip in today to help us protect access to the ballot and push back against efforts to restrict the right to vote? This week, Donald Trump signed an executive order aimed at restricting access to mail-in voting. For some, that might sound like just another political headline, but for families like mine and millions of others, it’s something we’ve seen before. My grandfather was forced to take literacy tests just to cast a ballot — tests that were intentionally designed to keep Black Americans from voting. My father and grandfather had to pay a poll tax, and my great-grandmother was denied the right to vote altogether. These weren’t isolated stories. They were part of a system built to silence millions of Americans. It took generations of struggle and the passage of the Voting Rights Act to begin to right that path. That’s why I don’t take moments like this lightly. Whether it’s poll taxes then or limiting mail-in ballots now, the goal has always been the same: making it harder for people to make their voices heard in government. And we know who that impacts the most — seniors, voters with disabilities, working families, and people in rural communities who might not otherwise be able to access the polls and participate in our democracy. But instead of building on the progress of the Voting Rights Act and working to expand access, Trump and national Republicans are trying to roll it back so they can cheat their way into winning elections. We can’t let that happen. Protecting the right to vote has always required vigilance — and it’s always required people willing to stand up and fight for it. That’s what our campaign is about. I took my oath of office with my hand on my father’s Bible, which he kept his poll tax receipt in. So as long as I’m in Congress, I’ll fight back against these attacks on our precious right to vote. But I need your help to do it. If you've saved your payment information with ActBlue Express, your donation will go through immediately: Thank you for being part of this fight. — Jenn McClellan

You didn’t buy the Bible. You didn’t mint the coin. You didn’t sign up for Trump University or bid on the NFTs or book a room at Mar-a-Lago. You opted out of every scheme, every hustle, every grift and it didn’t matter. Because while you were watching an illegal war burn through a billion dollars a day and TSA workers suffered because Congress couldn’t find the money to pay them, Trump was doing something quieter. He was taking yours.
Trump has grifted his entire life. Now he’s just taking it.
The State Department transferred $1.25 billion in foreign aid to Trump’s Board of Peace, pulling $1 billion from international disaster assistance, $200 million from peacekeeping operations, and $50 million from international organizations. Money that Congress authorized for hurricanes and refugees, moved without a congressional vote, into a fund that Trump created by executive order and controls personally. When reporters asked the State Department about it, a spokesperson said they had nothing to announce at this time.
The Board of Peace has one defining characteristic. Trump controls it forever. He named himself chairman for life. No audits. No transparency requirements. No conflict of interest rules. Countries pay $1 billion into a fund he runs to get a seat at the table. It has transferred nothing to Gaza, disclosed nothing about its spending, and received $1.25 billion of your disaster relief money without a word of explanation.
When he leaves the White House he keeps the fund. That is not a loophole. That is the design.

Of course, that’s not the only action Trump has recently taken to pay himself straight from the taxes Americans pay to the federal government. Trump filed a $10 billion lawsuit against the IRS over the leak of his tax records by a contractor. The problem, beyond the absurdity of the number, is that Trump controls the government he is suing. He confirmed it himself: “I’m supposed to work out a settlement with myself.” The DOJ attorneys who would defend against this lawsuit serve at his pleasure. Bondi is literally the only thing protecting the American people from Trump’s attempt to steal billions of our hard-earned money. Which means, there is an ineffective counsel sitting at the defense table for the American people, Trump on the other side of the negotiating table and Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent ready to sign the check.
He went from selling people something worthless to skipping the transaction entirely.
Disaster relief money in a fund he controls forever. A $10 billion lawsuit against himself with your money as the prize. A billion dollars a day on an unauthorized war while TSA workers went without pay and American healthcare credits slashed.
There was always money. It just wasn’t going to you.
The grift required something from you. A purchase. A click. A willing suspension of disbelief. You could say no to the Bible. You cannot opt out of your tax dollars. You have already paid. The question is whether enough people understand what is being done with that money to make enough noise that someone has to answer for it.
Americans do not like cheaters. The reason the fraud of Trump’s University landed everywhere it landed was because the story was simple. He took money from people who trusted him and gave them nothing back.
This is that story. Bigger numbers. Higher office. No brochure required.
Tell someone who doesn’t know. The noise is the only friction left.

IMPORTANT ISSUES! THESE ARE NOT SOLICITATIONS
SHARING TO INFORM AND EDUCATE ABOUT IMPORTANT ENERGY SOLUTIONS!
TRUMP WALLOWS IN DIRTY FOSSIL FUEL $$$ AND IGNORES INEXPENSIVE
SOLUTIONS! GATHER FACTS - NOT DISINFORMATION AND LIES!
CHINA IS SELLING INEXPENSIVE SOLAR KITS WITH BATTERY BACKUP THAT ARE
IDEAL FOR POOR NATIONS....BEING USED IN EUROPE...OPPOSED IN THE U.S.!
CHINA HAS FOCUSED ON HIGH SPEED RAIL AND UPGRADED THEIR POWER
TRANSMISSION LINES....CHINA IS LEADING THE WORLD IN REDUCING THEIR
ENERGY CONSUMPTION AND IMPROVING THEIR ENVIRONMENT WHILE THE
U.S. IS LAGGING BEHIND!
THE OFFSHORE WIND PROJECTS THAT TRUMP CANCELLED WILL POWER
+ 1 MILLION HOMES!
MASSACHUSETTS BUILDING CODES NOW MANDATE LEDs and numerous other
energy efficient applications - WE CAN DO IT!
WE WERE PURCHASING LEDs by the case for $1 EACH until TRUMP IMPOSED
TARIFFS! (WE REPLACED CFLs with LEDs.)
TRUMP ELIMINATED THE ENERGY STAR RATINGS THAT ALLOWED US TO
PURCHASE THE MOST EFFICIENT APPLIANCES AND REDUCE OUR ENERGY USE!
LET'S EMBRACE THE CLEAN ENERGY OF THE FUTURE!
Did you hear what Donald Trump’s Secretary of Interior Doug Burgum just said? I almost couldn’t believe it…
This is completely outrageous and hypocritical coming from a former Governor who previously supported renewable energy in his home state of North Dakota and championed an “all-of-the-above” energy approach. Now, he’s just another one of Trump’s lackeys. Will you donate now to help us fight back against an Administration doing everything in its power to sabotage our clean energy transformation? If you thought the Trump Administration would ease up on their attacks on clean energy now that gas prices are soaring and utility bills are through the roof, think again. They aren’t stopping their attacks. And we can’t stop fighting back! Their lies won’t change the fact that wind and solar are some of the cheapest forms of energy. If we want to lower costs for American families, we must fight back and continue the transition toward a clean energy economy. Thank you for standing with us, — David @ SEEC PAC |
