The job of a leader is not to soothe supporters into a sense of complacency that everything is just fine. The job of a leader is to tell the truth.
And the truth is, these are difficult times.
Over the past few weeks, I have received a lot of emails, calls and outreach on social media from people who are deeply upset, confused and angry about what is happening in Washington, D.C. and are wondering what we should be doing in this moment.
And my answer to myself, and to everyone, is to be a part of the solution in the way it works best for you.
We all have a role to play — big or small. For some, it is volunteering either on a political campaign or with a local organization helping those in need. It could be to donate, to run for office, to stay in touch with your local legislators, to build community online and offline...
This is not a time any of us can afford to throw our hands up. It's time to roll-up our sleeves.
And one suggestion for those who can — for something you can do today, right now, at this moment — is to donate to the Democratic National Committee.
They will put your donation to work immediately toward winning the next set of elections so we can flip the House and Senate to put a check on Trump's power.
If you've stored your info with ActBlue, we'll process your contribution instantly.
Thank you,
Kamala
