Arizona Open Letters

From a constituent in Phoenix, AZ

Congratulations on the recent blue wave. There is so much that we need to accomplish while we control both the house and the Senate. Many Americans feel that both Chuck Schumer and Hakeem Jefferies may not be the right choice to lead these respective chambers. We are mostly worried about there all

From a constituent in Green Valley, AZ

Hakeem Jeffries and Chuck Schumer are NOT leadership material. They cannot represent us because they have no guts, no courage. They are mealy mouthed hangers on. Do not elect them for leadership or we’ll be right back to where we just came from.

John Lewis Voting Rights Act

One of the first things our new majority should do is pass the John Lewis Voting Rights Act. Minorities gave us this win. What better way to thank them?

NO SCHUMER!!!

I am writing as one of your constituents to voice my strong opposition to Chuck Schumer serving as Senate Democratic Leader, and to urge you to support a new, more progressive choice for that role. Senator Schumer's leadership has not delivered the bold action this moment demands. Senate Democrats

Congressional leadership

As your constituent, I am writing to express my concerns regarding Congressional leadership and the need for accountability within our federal government. I do not support Hakeem Jeffries becoming Speaker of the House, nor do I support Chuck Schumer for Senate Majority Leader. I believe leadership

From a constituent in Tucson, AZ

Please utilize this moment to bring NEW leadership to the Senate. Schumer is NOT the leader we need. We need younger, progressive leadership, not under the thumb of aipac and corporations. Let him retire while Democrats plot a new path forward.

New Leadership Is Needed in the Senate Democratic Caucus

I am writing to express my concern that Chuck Schumer should no longer serve as the leader of the Senate Democratic Caucus. During the first two years of this presidency, I have been deeply disappointed by what I view as Senator Schumer’s willingness to capitulate to Republican demands rather than

From a verified voter in Chandler, AZ

The Democratic voters have spoken loudly and clearly—the status quo isn’t working. It’s time for change. Chuck Schumer needs to go. Democrats deserve a new majority leader who reflects the future, not the past.

Gerrymandering: Here’s the cycle we just saw. Gerrymandering a sinecure ‘safe’ seat promotes extremism, indifference and hubris. Extremism, indifference and hubris breeds greed, cruelty and a sense of entitlement to power. Greed, cruelty and entitlement to power creates corruption, authoritarian.

Do not support Hakeem Jeffries as speaker of the house

I am writing to express my serious concerns about Hakeem Jeffries as a potential Speaker of the House. At a time when our democracy depends on meaningful congressional oversight, independent leadership, and accountability, I question whether he would provide the level of opposition and scrutiny that

Replace Chuck Schumer as Senate Majority Leader in 2027

I am very pleased by the results of the 2026 midterms. But the work is only beginning. I want change. The American people clearly want change. We want action on healthcare, affordability, ending the Iran War, no longer supporting the genocide in Palestine, and holding the Trump administration accoun

Thank you for your work actively campaigning to help create last night's Blue Wave. Now it's time to get to work. First, please keep showing up on Rachel and other media and keep us updated on the plans for moving the Democratic agenda forward. Second, the message was clear last night. The Ameri

From a constituent in Phoenix, AZ

We want strong leadership for Congress.

The American people have spoken, they want change. We need strong leaders in the House and Senate. Hakeem Jeffries and Chuck Schumer have shown they are not leaders who will bring change. Let your representatives know you do not want Jeffries or Schumer as leaders for our new Congress.

From a constituent in Surprise, AZ

We do not want Hakeem Jeffrey to be the house speaker.

Hakeem Jeffrey should not be house speaker. We need accountability, not forgiveness. He is funded by aipac and does not share in the interests with his own party. We need a leader who will enact the will of the voters and investigate, impeach, and prosecute those in the current administration that

New Leadership Needed

New leadership is desperately needed once Democrats are in the majority of both the House and Senate. Younger, more progressive views are requisite as this is not the time to maintain the status quo. I believe you heard Americans speak clearly in yesterday’s elections and hope you are as clear on th

From a verified voter in Chandler, AZ

**AOC for Speaker of the House** Democratic voters just sent the clearest message possible that we want CHANGE in this country. And now that we have the House in our control, it’s imperative that we have a leader who has their finger on the pulse of the people. Hakeem Jeffries is NOT the person wh

We can whistle a happy tune for all of yesterday’s Democratic successes,but the threats to our lives here in southern AZ remain the same. Our environment and aquifer are being threatened by a huge copper mine complex that our state and apparently, federal, representatives have awarded all the permi

Do not play nice. Make actual permanent changes.

The first thing that we need you to do this morning, and I mean the very first thing, is to hire Senator-Elect Abdul El-Sayed’s Comms team. Then call Mayor Mamdani. Ask him to consult. On everything. Next, thank Chuck Schumer and Hakim Jefferies for their service and tell them that they are done i

Oppose the Bipartisan American Affordability and Jobs Act Without Major Fixes

Oppose the Bipartisan American Affordability and Jobs Act of 2026 in its current form. The transmission reforms in this bill are genuinely valuable, but they do not justify gutting the Clean Water Act, NEPA, and the National Historic Preservation Act, stripping Tribal sovereignty, and handing public

Don’t pick Chuck Schumer as majority Leader of the Senate

I’m writing this letter to ask and implore you to NOT support by selecting Chuck Schumer as majority leader of the senate. With the Democrats taking control of the senate, Schumer has shown to sell out dreamers when Schumer could have gotten the votes during the last shut down but folds to republica

From a constituent in Buckeye, AZ

Congratulations on the sweep--I know you're as excited and relieved as we all are, we did it! Now the really work begins. Dems need to become a fighting machine. We need to hold criminals accountable and as I saw someone say, "do reconstruction right this time!" I feel like a battered spouse that h

Make Trump USE the Veto

Yes, he’ll veto it, send it to him anyway. Make him go on record shooting every single good idea down. 2028 will be even bloodier.

Defend Ukraine Against Continued Russian War Crimes

Priorities for Democrats in 2027

Democrats must now focus on ending the war, restoring the economy, and putting checks and balances back into play in the government. That has to be the first priority over prosecutions or impeachments.
