Hi there,

I’m writing from Atlanta, where I’ve spent several days helping the team prepare for last night’s debate.

The day after the current presidency is over, we will need a change in our politics, not just our policies. Last night, Pete presented a fresh vision of Americans coming together to solve urgent crises bearing down on us.

Pete’s vision is one of inclusion and belonging, and it’s why he is uniquely instilling hope in Americans who are otherwise exhausted with partisan fighting.

Pete’s politics aren’t based on scoring points on Twitter, but helping people in real life. Instead of fighting the same ideological battles that Washington’s been fighting for the last 40 years and polarizing us further into our corners, Pete is offering a new approach with bold solutions that bring people together to solve problems.

That’s what we all saw on stage, and it’s what I saw in the days and quiet moments leading up to the debate, too. Pete is calm, level-headed, strong, and conscientious.

Pete grew up and lives in a diverse Midwestern city, surrounded by rural small towns and farms. He understands that while most politicians say they are going to Washington to “fight for us,” they end up more focused on the part about “fighting” than the part about “us.”

I’ve said this before, but it feels worth repeating today: You are part of an extraordinary campaign. We have the right candidate and a strong organization. I know that I am lucky to be a part of it and hope you feel that way, too.

If you can, please consider making a donation today to make sure we have the resources we need to continue building this strong campaign.

We can’t keep offering the same recycled approaches and people. To move forward, we need something different, not more “my way or the highway” politics. We need Pete!
