This latest example of Tea Party shutdown theatrics and political hostage-taking has made it clear -- things have got to change in Washington. We have too many insiders and establishment politicians doing the same old things and fighting the same old fights. And it’s because every election, we elect the same kind of people.

We’ve seen how things can change when we elect leaders like Elizabeth Warren who aren't afraid to take on entrenched special interests. We can completely change the conversation.

That’s what I will bring to the Senate -- I’ve been a single mom, living paycheck-to-paycheck; I’ve relied on Planned Parenthood as my primary care provider; and I know from experience what it’s like to take on the entrenched special interests who want you to go along to get along. Right now, there isn’t enough of that in Washington. And there aren’t enough progressive fighters.

I just released the first ad in my race to be the next Senator from Maryland, and I would love for you to take a look and share with your friends. This is what this election is about: giving everyone a voice at the table, and bringing a new perspective to Washington.

Please watch my new ad and then join the team at www.donnaedwardsforsenate.com. I need everyone in this fight!
