| Sandeep, I'm a Congressman. But first and foremost, I'm a dad.
Every day I head into work, I feel a responsibility to my children -- and every child in this country -- to make sure I leave them a country and a planet that's better than I found it. That's why I'm working day and night to: -- Strengthen working families Working families deserve that lifeline. Our children deserve that support. Sandeep, I know I've been emailing you a lot lately. But this isn't about me. It's about my children -- and every family and child in our country. It's about the real people who will suffer if we allow Republicans to take our Majorities and prioritize their own political gain over everyday people.

Rachel Maddow (RUSSIA)
| Sandeep, I just spoke with Rachel Maddow on a very pressing matter: I told her that our House Intelligence Committee will do everything possible to support Ukraine as they fight against Putin's aggression. But now I'm learning that the Russian media is retaliating, spreading lies, and attacking me. Now, more than ever, I need my strongest supporters behind me. I'll be honest with you, Sandeep: One of the reasons I joined the House Intelligence Committee was to protect our democracy from bad actors like Putin. It's why I'm working tirelessly day and night to support Ukraine.
Thanks for having my back, |

Raja Update 3/14

Dear Sandeep,
We hope all is well with you and your family, and that you are safe and healthy.
This week, Congressman Krishnamoorthi joined MSNBC with host Ali Velshi to discuss the ongoing situation in Ukraine. The Congressman said, "It's a very grim situation and in the face of it the people of Kiev starting with President Zelenskyy on down, have shown such courage and determined resistance against the invading Russians. It's up to us, Ali, to make sure that there are corridors open to Kiev so we can supply as much armaments and food and other essential items so they can defend themselves and remain where they are."
The Congressman also spoke with WGN radio's Lisa Dent and Steve Bertrand about Ukraine. Lisa asked the Congressman what is being done in the face of especially heinous recent attacks by the Russians and the Congressman responded, "First of all we have to condemn in the strongest terms the insidious barbaric attack on a maternity hospital in Mariupol, in Ukraine, by the Russians -- completely unacceptable, it's a war crime. Last weekend, one week ago, I had the privilege of participating in a zoom call with President Zelenskyy, with other members of Congress, and his point was this: either enforce a no-fly-zone or provide me with the fighter planes to fight back Russian air assets." The Congressman went on to call for the provision of planes to enable the Ukrainian people to defend their skies.
The Congressman spoke to reporters this week after a significant reduction in the funding for global vaccination efforts was announced. When reporters asked for a reaction, Congressman Krishnamoorthi, "My biggest concern at this point is that we have to get something supported by 10 Republicans in the Senate.. The White House is out of money at this point to fight the global vaccination war, and they're running on fumes to fight the domestic Covid war. How could we possibly leave ourselves in this position?"
We will continue to bring you news about Congressman Raja Krishnamoorthi's work in D.C. and Illinois.

I need your immediate attention
| Sandeep, let me tell you the facts: FIRST: DeJoy implemented a nationwide delivery slowdown ahead of the 2020 presidential election to undermine vote-by-mail and SUPPRESS our votes. THEN: DeJoy cut critical funds from the Post Office as part of his disastrous 10-year plan. BUT NOW: My Democratic colleagues and I are banding together to fire DeJoy -- once and for all. I need you to make a choice in this crucial moment, Sandeep. -- We either allow DeJoy to sabotage and politicize the USPS with his disastrous 10-year plan. Thank you for your support, Raja

Rachel Maddow just revealed:
| RACHEL MADDOW: DEJOY Act could STOP Trump's Postmaster General Sandeep, we need your eyes on this ASAP: Trump's Postmaster General first eviscerated the postal workforce and budget. Then this month, he implemented a massive mail slow down NATIONWIDE. And Trump himself already admitted that if Democrats lose the House, he WILL run for President. Everything is riding on this moment, Sandeep. Small businesses need the USPS for low cost and reliable service. People are counting on timely mail delivery for critical bills, packages and medication. Worst of all, if we don't stop DeJoy, vote by mail will be chaos during the midterms.
Thank you for acting quickly, Team Raja

| Let me tell you the facts, Sandeep: FIRST: Republicans just took the lead in the latest poll by TWO points. THEN: Trump teased his next presidential run in a speech to his supporters. BUT NOW: I'm rallying Democrats everywhere to protect our hard-earned Majorities from his attacks.

I need your personal endorsement, Sandeep
| Sandeep, I know I usually ask you for money. But today, I'm asking for something else: I need your personal endorsement. Sandeep, I need you to understand my story: When my parents first arrived in the United States, they faced prejudice and economic hardship. They relied on public housing and food assistance when times were tough. They worked hard to achieve the American Dream -- and give me the opportunity to become who I am today. Now, Trump's Republicans are fighting to destroy the programs that made my story possible. So when I talk about protecting our narrow Majority from their attacks, it isn't just about politics. It's deeply personal.
Sandeep, I'll be blunt: We must do everything in our power to stop Trump and his Republicans from retaking power. That's why I need to know supporters like you are behind me every step of the way. Thank you from the bottom of my heart, Raja
