Dear John,

Today is the last day of the quarter and we want to make sure you saw yesterday's message from our lawyer Dan Ernst about why our lawsuit against Boebert is so important.

This end-of-quarter is our last fundraising deadline before we file our case and we are so close to meeting our goal:

If just a handful of our supporters chipped in $10 before 11:59 PM tonight we will be over the line and have the warchest we need to take on everything that the GOP and Boebert legal teams throw at us. Can you step up and chip in $10 right now?

Take a look at the message below and thank you for believing in us at this critical stage of our Boebert lawsuit.

Team American Muckrakers PAC

----- Original message -----

John,

My name is Dan Ernst, Ernst Legal Group LLC serves as legal counsel for American Muckrakers PAC, (“AMP”) against Lauren Boebert, who has maliciously defamed AMP and continues to purposefully interfere with the organization’s capacity to exercise its first amendment rights.

As you may know, AMP filed a lawsuit in North Carolina against Representative Boebert and the Judge there ruled the suit should be filed in Colorado. Ernst Legal Group LLC is a Colorado-based law firm specializing in defamation and first amendment law, and stands ready to bring suit against Mrs. Boebert in Colorado.

To anyone paying attention to the news it is apparent that free speech in America is under attack from various quarters.

Being able to report information critical of elected officials without fear of governmental reprisal is a foundational right of our democracy, enshrined in the first amendment to the U.S. Constitution.

Representative Boebert launched just such a reprisal against American Muckrakers PAC, Inc. when AMP accurately reported information critical of her as a candidate. In the Summer and Fall of 2022, AMP published information verified by multiple sources that called into question Representative Boebert’s so-called “conservative values.” Boebert promptly went onto Fox News and other conservative media outlets to smear AMP, its staff and donors, defaming them as intentionally lying about her and threatening AMP with suit. That suit has never come, and AMP’s request to the media outlets that allowed and encouraged her to smear AMP have dismissively denied AMP’s request to allow President David B. Wheeler on to correct the record and defend his organization’s reputation.

Representative Boebert hopes that by defaming and threatening AMP with lawsuits, she will silence the organization and undermine its capacity to continue reporting critically on her candidacy. Letting her win will have a chilling effect not only on AMP, but on others who wish to exercise their first amendment rights to question the suitability of candidates for elected office. We can’t let this go without a fight.

John - American Muckrakers PAC asks that you chip in $15 or whatever you can spare to ensure that they have the resources to take on Boebert and the Republican Party’s legal apparatus. Can we count on you to chip in?
