John,

June 20th may determine if abortion remains legal in Virginia. Democrats control the VA State Senate by 2 votes, while Republicans have the governor & state house. Yet, it gets worse. One of the 2 Democrats, Joe Morrissey, has a history of sordid behavior and says he's a "pro-life" Democrat. 

Morissey was *twice* disbarred as state prosecutor for fistfights and contempt of court citations. He was charged with "delinquency of a minor" for having a relationship with, and marrying, a 17-yr old law firm receptionist.

Add in his will to control all women's bodies, and it's not surprising this happened:

We don't know how the November general election will go, we could lose pro-choice seats. Yet, we can remove a morally bankrupt anti-choicer and replace him with former Delegate Lashrecse Aird. Aird has made Abortion rights the centerpiece of their campaign with a "Roe Not Joe" tour around the district.

The primary's June 20th, but early voting has begun! If we want another crucial pro-choice vote from a Democratic district, we must help Aird NOW, or risk Glenn Youngkin banning abortion next year. Will you join Blue Amp's "Roe Not Joe," effort by supporting Lashrecse Aird with $5, $10, $25 or whatever you can?

We must remove anti-abortion extremists, even when they dress up as Democrats.

About BlueAmp Action:

We cannot sugarcoat the current situation. Right-wing authoritarianism, defeated by a worldwide coalition during WWII, was only in hibernation. Over the past decade it has infected democratic societies--including ours. It is as simple as it is terrifying: What we do now will define the future of our country and world. 

We at Blue Amp Action are dedicated to liberal, open societies, where reason and science are applied to solve our problems; where civil rights--including voting rights!--are protected for all. We fight for these values every day. Speaking up on our platforms, raising the voices and the political prospects of liberal pols and pundits. 

And savvy grassroots activists like you know, just like we do, that we can’t stop watching the people we help elect: after the elections, we have to keep organizing support for the policies we like and pushing back against the ones we don’t.

When the public tunes out between elections and the only people our elected officials hear from are the paid lobbyists of wealthy corporations, our government stops being accountable to the needs of ordinary families.

Democracy never sleeps, and neither can we.

So we ask that you support our work, so we can continue to engage in this fight every moment of every day. So our kids grow up in democracy, not dystopia.

Thank you for your support for all we do! Please follow Cliff Schecter on Twitter @cliffschecter, or subscribe to The Takedown with Cliff Schecter on YouTube, to keep up to date with this battle for the heart and soul of our country.
