As an immediate first step to Medicare for All, the new Democratic Congress must lower the Medicare eligibility age to 55, cover all kids & expand Medicare for dental, vision & hearing.
All of this can be passed with 51 votes in the Senate through reconciliation. Let’s do it.

The American people spoke loudly and clearly on Tuesday. The new Democratic majority cannot continue the same old, same old establishment policies.
Working families want change, REAL change, and that’s what Democrats must deliver.

They told us our politics could never win. We kept organizing.
A decade later, the movement Bernie inspired is setting the agenda.
Now we turn that power into a better life for working people. Not me. Us.

Dr. Abdul El-Sayed will be an incredible fighter for Michiganders.
Abdul represents the future of our party. Don’t get distracted by the noise from shills for AIPAC.
Money out of politics.
More money in your pockets.
Medicare for All.
That’s the fight. Vote Abdul.

Thanks to the 18,530 people who attended our telephone town hall today with Dr. Abdul El-Sayed, Democratic nominee for U.S. Senate in Michigan.
We are united in ending a do-nothing rubber-stamp Republican Senate. Together, we will elect Abdul.
One day left. Get out and vote.

Michigan Republicans, funded by Musk and other billionaires, have no answers to the struggles facing working families.
Instead they are resorting to Islamophobia and are running the most racist campaign in recent history.
Together, let's defeat bigotry and elect Abdul El-Sayed.

Trump, Musk and their billionaire friends are spending huge amounts lying about Abdul El-Sayed in Michigan and Angie Nixon in Florida.
Why? Because they have no agenda to help working people. So they resort to Islamophobia, red-baiting and fear-mongering.
NOT GONNA WORK
