John, a federal judge just ruled in favor of the new Georgia Congressional maps moving the district I represent over 20 points to Trump.

This will be a longer email as I explain how we got here and what this means. If you don’t feel like reading the whole thing, you can click here to support my campaign and Blue Amp Action as I’ll need all the help I can get to return to Congress.

Earlier in December, the Republican-controlled Georgia state legislature redrew our Congressional maps. In a blatant attempt to force me out of my seat, they gerrymandered the district I represent to favor the GOP by +20 points.

Alongside many voting rights organizations and activists, I vowed to fight against these new maps passing. But on 12/28, the federal court made its ruling in favor of these maps.

I won’t sugarcoat it, John: this is a disastrous outcome for voting rights and democracy.

However – I refuse to sit back quietly and let Republicans get their way. I made a promise that I won’t stop fighting in Congress until my communities are kept safe and protected. I won’t let the GOP decide when my time in Congress is over.

Let’s recall that this is the second time Georgia Republicans have drawn a district I represent over 20 points to Donald Trump. I’m fully prepared to return to Congress in 2024.

But John, I’d be lying if I told you it’s an easy path ahead of me. I only have a few months before this next election, and we need to put my campaign into overdrive. Can you rush a donation ASAP to Blue Amp Action and myself before the end-of-year deadline on Sunday to help make sure I can continue leading the gun safety movement in Congress?

 

Now more than ever, I need my grassroots movement behind me. The stakes are high and I hope I can count on your support.

 
 

Let's do this,

Lucy McBath

About BlueAmp Action:

We cannot sugarcoat the current situation. Right-wing authoritarianism, defeated by a worldwide coalition during WWII, was only in hibernation. Over the past decade it has infected democratic societies--including ours. It is as simple as it is terrifying: What we do now will define the future of our country and world. 

We at Blue Amp Action are dedicated to liberal, open societies, where reason and science are applied to solve our problems; where civil rights--including voting rights!--are protected for all. We fight for these values every day. Speaking up on our platforms, raising the voices and the political prospects of liberal pols and pundits. 

So we ask that you support our work, so we can continue to engage in this fight every moment of every day. So our kids grow up in democracy, not dystopia.

Thank you for your support for all we do! Please follow Cliff Schecter on Twitter @cliffschecter, or subscribe to The Takedown with Cliff Schecter on YouTube, to keep up to date with this battle for the heart and soul of our country.
