As a consumer protection attorney and former Member of the House Oversight Committee, Katie knows how important good government oversight is.

Take a look and watch Katie's interview about oversight in the new Trump era >>

Even though she's no longer in Congress, Katie will keep speaking truth to power.

Thanks for watching!

I need you to read every word of this carefully:

Friend, the new Republican majority was just sworn into the Senate.

I know you may be disappointed – believe me, I am too – but before I ask you to chip in toward my rapid-response $20,000 goal tonight, I need you to read every word of this email closely:

Because as you read this, Trump and his Senate allies are wheeling and dealing to push dangerous cabinet appointees like RFK Jr. through confirmation.

As you read this, they're planning to take away benefits from working families, seniors, and veterans to dole out massive tax cuts for billionaires and corporations.

And as you read this, Republicans and far-right extremists are gearing up to pass a nationwide abortion ban.

So as you read this, friend, I'm personally asking you for help.

From fighting against bad nominees and holding up harmful bills to bringing their majority to an end in 2026, Senate Democrats have our work cut out for us – and it's going to take a SURGE of grassroots support to get the job done.

Will you please help us build the resources we need to push back against the MAGA agenda and hold Senate Republicans and Trump accountable by rushing $5, $25, or anything by my midnight deadline?

Nothing I do – for people in Washington state, and for every American – is possible without you.

Thank you,

10 Truth to Power endorsed candidates will be sworn in to Congress!

Katie Porter here.

The 119th Congress officially begins today. Once a Speaker of the House is chosen, 10 of Truth to Power's endorsed candidates will be sworn in to Congress.

These new Members include folks like Sarah McBride, the first openly transgender woman to serve in Congress, and Derek Tran, who flipped a Republican-held seat blue in what was a tough year for Democrats.

Truth to Power supported these folks' campaigns and that was only possible because of our dedicated grassroots donors from across the country.

If you want to make a difference in some of the most competitive races in the country, will you become one of our first grassroots donors of 2025?

Thank you for everything you do to support our people-powered candidates.

More soon,

Katie

a note about tomorrow

Before the sun sets on our Democratic Senate majority tonight, I'm counting on your urgent support to keep up the fight.

Will you please make your first investment of $5 or more now to help me protect our hard-fought progress from the GOP Senate majority?

CONTRIBUTE

When my colleagues and I return to the Senate floor tomorrow morning, the new Republican majority will be sworn in – but just because Republicans will hold a slim advantage, it doesn't mean we get to throw in the towel:

If we're going to fight to stop a nationwide GOP abortion ban, I need your help.

If we're going to fight to stop them from giving more handouts to billionaires and mega corporations on the backs of working people, I need your help.

And if we're going to fight to stop them from putting politics before science and facts, I need your help.

Now, you might be wondering: "Can my $5 really help with all of that?"

Well, believe me, friend – yes it can.

Support from grassroots Democrats like you is how we elected a razor thin majority to make huge investments in our infrastructure, incentivize new manufacturing, lower prescription drug prices, and expand the Affordable Care Act.

And starting tonight, with help from grassroots supporters like you – one $5 donation at a time – we'll be able to start our works to retake the Senate in 2026.

So before midnight, will you please chip in to help us build the resources we need to stand our ground against Republican-led rollbacks and keep America on a path to progress – whether they like it or not?

Thank you.

Hi!

I wanted to send you a short note of gratitude today.

As I always say, a goal without a deadline is just a dream. That's why every time we have a fundraising deadline, I take it seriously.

Thanks to more than 870 grassroots donors from across the country, we reached our end-of-year fundraising goal. Together we will continue to fight to lower costs for families and stand up to special interests in Washington.

I'm so grateful to have your support!

Thanks again & Happy New Year!

Thank you for supporting children in 2024!

On behalf of children around the world ... Thank you for your generous support in 2024!

Thank you to everyone who contributed during our final fundraising push in 2024! Because of supporters like you, millions of children will be safer and healthier this year.

2024 was marked with unexpected challenges, from continued conflict in Gaza and Ukraine, to hurricanes causing massive damage in the Southeastern United States, to famine in Sudan. As always, children were the most vulnerable during these crises.

But through it all, champions for children like you were there for the world’s children when they needed you most.

You helped provide cash and livestock to families like Khongorzul’s, who faced extreme cold weather in Mongolia. You helped provide a continued education to children like Marko,* who is resettling in Romania after fleeing the war in Ukraine. And you helped Alfred’s community protect their village from flooding. Click here to read more about your impact in 2024.

It’s only with your ongoing generosity that we can continue to help children around the world grow up healthy, learning and safe. Thank you for all you do.

Save the Children

P.S. If you didn’t have a chance to contribute during our end-of-year fundraising drive, you can still make a life-changing difference for children in 2025 by making a donation today. Every dollar helps more kids access the resources and care they need to achieve their dreams.
