We are leaving it all on the field.
At CFFE PAC, in this final stretch, we are working hard to elect candidates who will lower the cost of care.
Voters are responding. People want leaders who understand that caregiving is essential– and it shouldn’t break the bank.

Families were already choosing between heat and groceries last winter – and that was before Dan Sullivan voted for the price-hiking Iran war 14 times.
Alaskans across the state are ready to vote him out and bring down costs.
High gas prices are making Apay’uq Moore’s lifestyle in rural Alaska harder to afford.
Now, she says she is firmly siding with Democrat Mary Peltola in her state’s Senate race, primarily because of the issue of affordability. wapo.st/4yJ9nHQ
I was fortunate to introduce @dunlap4congress at a town hall last week and listen to him field question after question from voters with policy depth, political acumen, and compassion. Good guy, competitive race, ideal conditions for the change we need.

CFFE PAC’s canvassers have been hearing and seeing the same receipts in Maine all fall.
Child care, groceries, gas, heating oil. All comes from one bank account.
Voters are asking us who will lower my bills? And the answer is @TroyJackson207 in Maine.
This morning, Michelle from Boothbay sent me this photo of her heating oil bill: nearly $1,300.
“I don't know how we are going to get through the winter… This is on Susan Collins directly. Groceries are so expensive [and] gas is so expensive. And we know that the price on everything is just going to keep going up.”
Susan Collins voted five times to let Trump continue his war in Iran. His tariffs are driving costs even higher. Mainers like Michelle are paying the price.
Mainers deserve to thrive, not barely survive. On November 3, let’s put an end to this madness.
CFFE PAC is endorsing @Mendoza4AZ for AZ-06.
“As a single mom with an aging parent, I know firsthand how hard it can be to balance taking care of your family with making ends meet. Families across Southern Arizona are working hard, but too many are still struggling to get ahead.”
Marine veteran and working mom JoAnna Mendoza knows what it means to serve her country and support a family. In Congress, she’ll take on rising child care costs and make everyday life more affordable for Southern Arizona families. CFFE PAC is proud to endorse @Mendoza4AZ for #AZ06.

Let’s send @EmiliaSykesOH back to Congress! Working families can rely on her to not only push back, but to advance a vision of this country that works for all of us.
Let’s get more state legislators in Congress!
Well, at least those like @TroyJackson207 who have a history of helping working families (and local farmers!).
I was proud to help pass universal school meals in the Maine Legislature. But feeding our kids takes more than passing a law. Hardworking farmers like those at Milkhouse Farms, who produce high-quality milk for families across Maine, are the ones putting in the work. Proud to stand with the farmers who keep our communities fed.
Race to watch! @cbhines586 Christina Hines (MI-10)
.@cbhines586 is a mom on a mission. She’ll keep fighting until Michiganders can afford to live and our kids' rights and freedoms are secure.

Like too many Iowans, my sister Ulette is fighting cancer.
She’s also fighting her insurance company after they denied a scan to see if the cancer had spread. If you wonder how broken the healthcare system is, she is living proof.
Watch one of our campaign’s closing ads:
“Families in my district are struggling with an economy that is way out of balance. I am running to bring down costs so working people can afford the basics like caring for themselves and their families.
CFFE PAC endorses Brian Poindexter, @bpforcongress #OH07
As a union ironworker, apprenticeship instructor, and local leader, Brian Poindexter will fight to lower the cost of care, strengthen economic security, and make life more affordable for working Ohioans. CFFE PAC is proud to endorse @bpforcongress for #OH07.

Every job I’ve had has been about serving my neighbors: as a parish pastor, a hospital chaplain, or at the DMARC pantry network.
That's why public service is at the core of this campaign. I'm going to Congress to show up for every one of my neighbors in the 3rd district.
CFFE PAC endorses @BillHillAK in #AKAL
“Right now, Alaska has a representative in DC who's making it harder and harder to raise a family and care for the people we love.
The good news is: When Alaska's working families come together, we can make change.”
As a former school superintendent and father, Bill Hill understands how rising child care costs strain Alaska families. In Congress, he’ll fight to make child care more affordable and help working families get ahead. CFFE PAC is proud to endorse @BillHillAK for #AKAL

Alaska workers are done with DC politicians enriching themselves while hurting us and jacking up our cost of living.
I’m proud to be in this fight with Alaska educators, caregivers, building trades workers, and more as we get out the vote to put working families first!

Sometimes, when you are living through and taking part in history, you don't always fully recognize the magnitude of the moment. For us, this is that moment.
These next three weeks present most of us with the deepest civic obligation that we will face in our lifetimes. Let’s look back on what we did at this pivotal moment in our country's history with pride and tell our kids and our grandkids that we stood up and we met the moment — that we made the difference history demanded of us.

Jon Husted says people are struggling because their “work ethic is broken” – he couldn’t be more wrong. Ohioans are working harder than ever just to get by.
The real problem is Jon Husted gives tax cuts to billionaires while voting time and time again to raise the cost of your groceries, gas, and health care.
The first time I met @BohannanIowa, she told me she’s a listener — always in conversation with voters about what’s working and what needs fixing.
We were talking child care. TL;DR: needs fixin’.
Good policy starts with listening. Now let’s get to work.

Lower costs v Trump’s agenda
CFFE PAC is knocking doors in #MI10 driving home this contrast to help send @cbhines586 to Congress.
Mom on a mission!
Canvassing can be a bit like matchmaking. When candidates prioritize exactly what voters say needs fixing, that’s when you’ve got a match. 💙

Grateful to the @FamFriendlyEcon for joining me in conversation on equitable solutions for families across America. Families face challenges with child care, elder care, health care, and housing—caught in a cycle where you can’t work without care, and can’t afford care without work.
A big thank you to @SGoldschein for championing this important discussion. And thank you to every participant who shared their personal, lived experience. Your stories are what make this work real, and they’re what will shape the change we fight for.
I’m proud and eager to keep building on this work together.
