Team,

When Congress is at a standstill, the voices and needs of working people across America risk being overlooked. Just this month, we witnessed an unprecedented scenario: Congress was without a Speaker for 22 days, bringing decision-making to a near halt.

The absence of a Speaker isn't just a procedural issue; it reflects the deep divisions and challenges our legislative body faces. These moments remind us why local actions, like ballot measures, are vital to ensuring the needs of citizens aren't lost amidst the political wrangling in Washington.

In these turbulent times, when partisan divides have often brought meaningful legislation to a standstill, ballot measures have become a beacon of light for direct democracy.

When Congress can't act, ballot measures allow voters to reclaim their power. To date, we've won over 30 ballot measure campaigns across the country. Can you rush a donation before tomorrow's fundraising deadline to help us continue this momentum and advocate for working people in America?

Despite the challenges at the federal level, we know that on-the-ground policies can make a significant difference. For instance, think about the many workers without access to paid sick leave – it's a situation that leaves countless individuals vulnerable. Their jobs and livelihoods hang in the balance every time an illness strikes.

Our commitment to these workers has driven us to champion transformative measures. For example, we rallied with voters in Colorado to pioneer the first-ever paid family and medical leave initiative, and we were at the forefront of crucial paid sick leave victories in Washington, Arizona, Michigan, and San Antonio in recent years.

Team: As we strive to bridge the gaps left by Congress, can you rush a donation now? We aim to raise $3,500 by midnight tomorrow. Your support will fuel more essential ballot measure campaigns and uphold the rights of working people across states.

Thank you for standing with us,

Fairness Project
