DEFEND THE VULNERABLE.
PROTECT DEMOCRACY.
MY MOM TAUGHT ME TO FIGHT.
I hate bullies. Always have.
Why? Maybe it was all those comic books I read as a kid. Or seeing my mom, Ione, struggle to survive against a parade of scammers, predatory lenders, and crushing medical debt.
Mom raised me as a single parent since I was 8 years old. She was a former Miss New Jersey, Pinochle player, and real estate agent. We had good times but it was a constant battle to keep the heat on in the house and food on the table. There were a lot of tears.
Then came cancer. Mom had no health insurance. She survived but it devastated her financially. She lived with that stress daily until the bank seized her house. She would have been homeless if I hadn't bought her a place to live. She died shortly thereafter in 2010.
Watching mom helped teach me empathy for people with less power facing these enormous forces; I also learned to fight. She didn't have an education or resources, but mom was a fighter.
It enraged me when the GOP came one vote from ripping Obamacare away from millions and then plunged our country into historic deficits to give tax breaks to wealthy donors. And now they’re trying to destroy the very concept of truth so they can continue to plunder America.
I’ve stood up to bullies my whole life; I’m going to continue to do so during this critical time in our country’s history .
OUR GIRLS ARE WATCHING
The impact on our girls is a major motivation for me to fight for our democracy. I directed this film which received over 3 MILLION VIEWS on X and TikTok. The YouTube version is below.
"I know many people feel like we are entering a dark time. … America, if it is, let us fill the sky with the light of a brilliant, brilliant billion stars—the light of optimism, of faith, of truth and service, may that work guide us."
— Kamala Harris
