[Haley Scott @HaleySScott]

History made! Our first open LGBTQ Boro Wide elected official.

So proud of this man and this team. 🌈🥯

[Brad Lander @bradlander]

Hope and solidarity won tonight, and will win again in November.

Congratulations, @ZohranKMamdani.

Tonight, I'll go home and sleep in my bed. I have a lawyer, I'll get due process.

But Edgardo, whose arm was ripped from mine by ICE agents, has none of those things.

That's why I'll keep coming back to court, week after week, to make sure that people's rights are protected.

[Brad Lander @bradlander]

Hi, this is Meg Barnette, Brad's wife.

While escorting a defendant out of immigration court at 26 Federal Plaza, Brad was taken by masked agents and detained by ICE.

This is still developing, and our team is monitoring the situation closely.

With a month left before Primary Day, I'm so excited to share with you our first ad, which highlights two Manhattan icons — the New York City subway and Councilmember Gale Brewer! 🌈🥯

[Vote YES on Prop 1 - NYEqualRights @yesonprop1ny]

Many of us took it for granted that our reproductive freedom would always be protected. When Roe v. Wade fell, we were shocked, and we realized our rights aren’t as safe as we thought. Since then, reproductive rights like abortion, birth control, and IVF have been under attack across the country.

That’s why we need to vote #YesOnProp1.

Prop 1:

✅Protects abortion rights and our reproductive freedom
✅ Prevents government discrimination

Turn your ballot over and vote YES on Prop 1!

Maxine Dexter defeated a crowded field to win the open primary in #OR3 with over 50% of the vote. Voters connected with her message as a doctor who listens and delivers on progressive values. "Shelby and Taylor" can tell you that:

Will never stop yelling to the rooftops that @bridgetgslomian drew these elephants with her bare hands!!!! So proud of our team :’)

[BerlinRosen Campaigns @BRCampaigns]

Last week, we were thrilled to learn that we won a Gold Pollie from @TheAAPC for our work with @parisa4justice! We love a good oppo book, and it's an honor to have our creative spin on it recognized by our peers.

[BerlinRosen Campaigns @BRCampaigns]

Last but certainly not least, we were proud to support @ABetterWis in their work to stop the wrongful impeachment attempts of @janetforjustice. ABWT took home top honors for Best Rapid Response Campaign!

[BerlinRosen Campaigns @BRCampaigns]

Our work for @IndyMayorJoe took home a trophy for Best Mail Piece for a Mayoral Election - Democratic. This incredibly cool poster was sent out to voters in the closing days of the election, helping to inspire both Indy pride and turnout for Mayor Hogsett’s successful reelection.

[BerlinRosen Campaigns @BRCampaigns]

In Travis County, we were proud to support District Attorney @JosePGarza. Jose won a resounding victory–against flood of outside money–on a message of safety and justice.

[BerlinRosen Campaigns @BRCampaigns]

First up, DA’s! We were proud to support @ElectSeanTeare in Harris County. Sean defeated the incumbent by nearly 50(!) points on a promise to fight for criminal justice reform.

[Chron @chron]

JUST IN: Harris County DA Kim Ogg suffered a devastating primary loss at the hands of Sean Teare, a former prosecutor who worked in her office.

Elon Musk endorsed the challenger to Austin's progressive DA. He emailed Tesla staff to go out to vote in the race today.

The DA, José Garza, just won by a 2 to 1 margin. https://t.co/zY1EkU1PLH

A perfect day to share valentine mail from our talented @BRCampaigns team! 💘

[BerlinRosen Campaigns @BRCampaigns]

Then again, it might have been this valentine we designed for Planned Parenthood to send to Jim (and a few thousand of his neighbors) 💕

[BerlinRosen Campaigns @BRCampaigns]

About last night: BR client Jim Prokopiak won a Special Election for the PA State House in Bucks County, helping Dems retain the majority for the 6th time this cycle.

Fun fact: Jim won in a 35 point blowout in this Biden+10 district. Here's the ad we made that helped him do it:

🐦‍⬛ December I read 25 books!!! My fav fiction was The Raven Tower by Ann Leckie (stand-alone fantasy novel about ancient gods, partial second person POV) & my fav nonfiction was Thin Places by Jordan Kisner (a powerful essay collection about losing faith, finding connection).

[Jesse Claflin @JesseClaflin]

When I'm not campaigning... I'm reading! 🤓 Here's a belated look back at my favorite books of 2023...

[Jesse Claflin @JesseClaflin]

🚗 November I read 21 books!! My fav fiction was Yours Truly by Abby Jimenez (coworkers fall in love, there's some great anxiety representation) & my fav nonfiction was Stay True by Hua Hsu (a beautifully written memoir about coming of age and losing a best friend).
