Dear Friend,

Today’s the last day. This is important. We need your help.

Please take this moment to make your tax-deductible donation now and double your impact: [link removed]

This year Americans are getting a real-world lesson of what it’s like to live in a country without the crucial protection of church-state separation.

A member of the Shadow Network, Mike Johnson, is now second in line to the U.S. Presidency. His alarming rhetoric and lifelong work to advance Christian Nationalist policies are dangerous, anti-democratic, and un-American. The damage he has inflicted on church-state separation and our democracy is well-documented.

He wants to impose his religious beliefs on all of us by banning abortion, rolling back LGBTQ+ equality, and inserting creationism and coercive prayer in public schools. He worked to undermine the 2020 presidential election. He’s called the separation of church and state a “misnomer.” He’s in lockstep with Christian Nationalists.

We’ve never seen an all-out assault on church-state separation like this before, and it’s going to take all of us working together to fight back. Your gift today is critical to our efforts: [link removed]

Christian Nationalists are determined to undermine our basic freedom to live as ourselves and believe as we choose, free from the threat of religion-based discrimination. We at Americans United will not, MUST NOT, back down. We will continue to be the shield to protect your freedoms and our democracy.

Your generous gift—along with those of your fellow supporters—will help AU begin 2024 in the strongest possible position to bring together people of all religions and none to fight in the courts, legislatures, and the public square for our democracy: [link removed]

Please help us get there. Be part of a year-end triumph.

With hope and determination,

Rachel K. Laser
President and CEO
