I have to be honest, John: I’m disappointed. We only have a few hours left until our crucial mid-month deadline, and we’re still $1,752 short of our goal. 

After the incredible response to Sandra’s message, I thought we’d be well on track to raise what we needed before midnight tonight. But not enough people have stepped up, and membership donations have nearly stalled.

So, we extended our deadline. If you can give, we need you to come through and activate your mid-year Emerge membership NOW.

With the stakes higher than ever, we can’t afford to miss a single goal in our work to transform politics. Please, as one of our top supporters, donate $5 or more to activate your membership now and help Emerge recruit, train, and empower more Democratic women to run for office in every state.

Subject: we can't take any race for granted in the fight for our rights


John, in a moment I’m going to explain why activating your mid-year Emerge membership is critical to powering our women-led movement to transform politics and protect our essential rights for years to come. But if you’re all in – and in a bit of a hurry – you can make your gift now.

So far this year, Republican lawmakers have sown fear and chaos in our communities through aggressive abortion restrictions and outright bans, pushed vulnerable Americans to flee their homes in search of lifesaving and affirming health care, and continued an all out assault on our democracy through an ever-growing list of voting rights restrictions. 

That’s not what democracy looks like. But if the GOP is committed to this dangerous path, then we know what we have to do: Replace them – state by state – at every single level of our government. Emerge has a proven strategy to do exactly that: by empowering Democratic women to run for office and win. 

So please: Will you be a part of our movement and activate your Emerge mid-year membership now? Donate $5 or more to help empower Democratic women to run for office and win in every state.

With our rights on the line, we need Democratic women in office to fight back against these dangerous bills and deliver the policies our communities need to thrive. That means in school boards, city councils, sheriff’s offices, state legislatures, governorships, and all the way to Congress. Because every office has a role to play in turning our country around, and we can’t take any race for granted. 

But here’s the good news: Emerge alums have already WON crucial elections in Kentucky, Pennsylvania, Oregon, and Wisconsin this year. That’s because our recruitment and training programs really work, and we stick by our alums on the campaign trail and beyond. But the only way we can break glass ceilings in politics and empower more women to safeguard our rights is with the help of supporters like you. 

Please: Donate $5 or more now – before the deadline this Thursday – to activate your mid-year Emerge membership so we can empower MORE Democratic women to run for office and defeat the GOP's agenda in every state.
