I'm proud that my faith tradition helps guide my service to Nevada and our country.
 | | | | Jeanne,
Want to know how I first got into politics? I was recruited to run for Congress while serving as the president of my synagogue.
Looking back, although it seems a bit unconventional, it's incredibly fitting that leading Nevada's largest synagogue was my entry point to public service. My Jewish faith and values are at the very core of so much of my work in the Senate today. In fact, my decision to run for public office in the first place was guided by the Jewish principle of Tikkun Olam – which means to leave the world a better place than how we found it. | | Now, as both the third Jewish woman senator in U.S. history and the only former synagogue president in the Senate, I'm proud that my faith tradition helps guide my service to Nevada and our country.
I firmly believe that if everybody stands firm and does their part to help better this world, we can move mountains to make positive change happen. As we face everything from growing antisemitism to attacks on abortion rights and threats to tear down our very democracy, there's never been a more crucial time for us to come together, roll up our sleeves, and make a difference. | | So if the principle of Tikkun Olam resonates with you – if you're with me in the fight to make real progress for our country – I hope you'll chip in $5 or more today to help me continue this critical work in the Senate. | | Whenever we have the opportunity to stand up and make progress for the people we love and for our communities, we should. Thank you so much for helping me do that today.
Jacky | | | | | | | | |
