Hello,

Senator Patty Murray (D-WA) proposed legislation in the Senate that would mandate paid sick leave, aid to local food banks, and cover the cost of testing for the virus, among other steps to help Americans deal with this public health crisis.

But Lamar Alexander (R-TN) decided he'd rather block the bill and let the Senate wring its hands while more and more Americans suffer.

This is the GOP's go-to response to any crisis affecting non-rich Americans: they dragged their heels with relief to Puerto Rico for Hurricane Maria, refused to act on lowering the skyrocketing price of prescription drugs, and now they're stopping critical aid from reaching the communities most affected.

It's become clearer than ever just how important it is that Democrats win up and down the ticket.

We need a Democratic Senate that won't acquit Trump of every crime, won't confirm every anti-choice judge he nominates, and will actually act on progressive legislation.

Democrats need 4 seats to flip the Senate in 2020, and right now, we have our eyes on flipping as many as 8, but we have to turn out the vote to make sure that happens.

Our mission at When Democrats Turn Out is to prevent a repeat of the 2016 election, when millions of Democrats stayed home or were intimidated from voting at all, and Donald Trump won Wisconsin, Michigan, and Pennsylvania each by just 0.7% or less. Our mission is to support every key Senate battleground race and beat Trump and McConnell in 2020.

Our work is 100% funded by thousands of grassroots supporters across the country. Our work is funded by you.

If you care about stopping Trump and removing Mitch McConnell from power, then please, we're asking you to please donate $5 or more immediately to support our work turning out voters, stopping GOP voter suppression, and taking back the Senate from Mitch McConnell. Can you give $5 now? ([link removed])

Your help is critical to pushing back and winning in 2020.

Thank you,
The WDTO Team
