Fellow Democrats,
Over the past two weeks, the nation has again witnessed the disturbing reality of the modern Republican Party. In the wake of another tragic school shooting, Tennesseans staged massive protests calling on their legislators to take action to prevent it from happening again.
Tennessee Republicans responded to this cry for help with an outrageous attack on our democracy. The GOP took the extreme action of expelling the two Black legislators who joined their fellow concerned citizens, stripping their voters of their duly chosen representatives. A third White legislator who joined in calling for remedy, herself, narrowly missed being expelled by the out of control GOP.
This is a shocking and unprecedented action.
Republicans throughout the country have amped up their efforts to circumvent our democracy and undermine the rule of law, but what can we do here in Illinois?
We can support our sister organization, the Tennessee Democratic County Chairs' Association (TDCCA)!
TDCCA is our partner, fighting back against the GOP extremists and supporting those expelled Democratic legislators. Like the IDCCA, the TDCCA is working tirelessly to build stronger County Parties, elect Democrats, and defend democracy.
With a little bit of assistance, the TDCCA has a chance to flip several seats needed to break the GOP supermajority. We are stepping up our efforts to help make that happen.
Refuse to just stand idly by and join us in backing our sister organization. Chip in $10 or more to the TDCCA right now and defend democracy.

Thank you,
