No treats, only tricks.

Happy Halloween! While kids across the country are getting ready to trick-or-treat, I wanted to share something truly frightening with you: what Republicans have been up to this October.

Forget haunted houses and horror movies — these "accomplishments" will make your blood run cold. Here are just some of the scariest things Republicans have done this month:

  • Withheld funding for food assistance programs like SNAP and WIC, despite the money already being allocated;
  • Demolished the East Wing of the White House to make way for a vanity project ballroom;
  • Bailed out Argentina's economy to the tune of $40 billion;
  • Insisted that there is a way for Trump to legally serve a third term;
  • Indicted NY Attorney General Letitia James and Former FBI Director James Comey for partisan reasons;
  • Threatened 100% tariffs on our largest trading partner;
  • Continued to defend the illegal and authoritarian deployment of National Guard troops to cities across the country;
  • Withheld billions of dollars of federal funding from predominantly Democratic states for opposing his agenda;
  • Fired dozens of key CDC officials;
  • Pushed Indiana to redraw its Congressional maps in order to get more seats for Republicans and suppress Democratic voices; and
  • Continued to keep the government closed while millions of Americans suffer.

These aren't tricks, they're the real deal. And here's what's even scarier: they're just getting started.

That's why I need your help. As we get closer to the end of the year, we need to start ramping up our efforts for the upcoming midterms. Can you chip in $10, $25, or whatever you can to my campaign to help us get ready for 2026?

We're building a movement to protect health care, defend democracy, combat climate change, and fight for working families. But we can't do it without grassroots supporters like you.

Don't let this nightmare become our reality.

More soon,

Jim
