Indivisibles,
Over the weekend, the Atlanta Journal-Constitution, Atlanta’s paper of
record, published a [ [link removed] ]shocking article about newly-appointed Senator
Kelly Loeffler (R-GA). Here’s what they said:
[I]t is Loeffler’s big-city career in finance, mostly at the Atlanta-based
owner of the New York Stock Exchange, that propelled her to the Senate –
and into one of the trickiest ethical dilemmas in recent congressional
history.
When she joined the Senate Agriculture Committee, Loeffler became an
overseer of the overseers of the company that made her rich:
Intercontinental Exchange, or ICE.
She’s supposed to oversee the company that made her rich?!
When we say Trump is a symptom of a broken system, this is exactly what
we’re talking about (it’s no coincidence that so far, Loeffler has voted
with Trump 100% of the time). Public officials should be accountable to
the people they represent, not working to enact policies that will help
their personal bottom lines.
Luckily, Kelly Loeffler is up for re-election this year, and we’re working
hard on a plan to take back the Senate. That’s why today we’re adding
Loeffler to our list of targets as part of our Payback Project. That means
we’re now fighting to replace both of Georgia’s senators (along with eight
other enemies of democracy) and elect progressive champions who want to
represent the people.
We’re sending you this email first because as a supporter of the project
and Indivisible, you should know that we’ve added Loeffler to the list.
But we also want to use this as a moment to remind you what you can do to
kick Loeffler and all the rest of our target senators out of office.
Here’s our three asks:
1. [ [link removed] ]Visit the Payback Project website, where you can read more details
about Loeffler’s conflicts of interest and all the other senators
we’re focused on this year. And if you’re inspired, share the website
with your friends.
2. Text PAYBACK to 977-79 to receive breaking news updates and hear about
ways you can take action in your community.
3. [ [link removed] ]Donate $10 to Indivisible Action. Grassroots donations are our
largest single source of funding, which means all our work to take
back the Senate (and everything else we’re working on this year!) is
impossible without your support.
We’ll continue to update you with more info on how our movement is working
to take back the Senate and save democracy this year, and we’ll let you
know about other awful news like this. For now, just know that we’re
grateful to have you on board, and we’re excited to get to work.
In solidarity,
Indivisible Team
