My name is Gloria Johnson. I’m a former teacher & state legislator running for Senate against MAGA Marsha Blackburn here in Tennessee. I'm reaching out because you’re a committed Democrat who can help me flip this critical seat blue.

Here’s the deal – I don’t ask for your hard-earned dollar lightly. I know that you choose to invest in movements you care about – and that’s why it’s deeply important to me that you know who I am and why I’m in this race. 

So please, take a minute to read my note below, and then I really do need you to split a donation between my campaign and Jacky Rosen before my midnight deadline >>>

I’m in this race because Tennesseans deserve better.

That was made crystal clear earlier this year, in the wake of the horrific Nashville school shooting. Thousands of Tennesseans descended on the state Capitol to demand action on gun violence prevention, but the GOP majority refused to give them a voice.

So two of my colleagues and I stood up to join their historic protest. 

I knew it was against the rules. I knew it’d piss the GOP leadership off. But I couldn’t let the Covenant families, young people, and parents from across the state stand alone. 

The Republican majority took quick action, but not on gun violence. Both my colleagues, Representatives Justin Pearson and Justin Jones, were expelled. I was spared by a single vote. Then the GOP majority passed a new law to increase access to guns. 

MAGA Republicans in Nashville and Washington don’t give a damn about us. They don’t give a damn about using power to save lives or help the people who elected them into office. They only care about their big campaign donors and special interest lobbyists.

But one thing has changed – the people are on our side, and they are standing up to demand action and make the change we need. There’s a movement afoot in Tennessee.

We want action on gun violence prevention. We demand politicians respect our reproductive freedom. And we WILL fight for working families.

I’m standing up to take on Senator Marsha Blackburn now because Tennessee deserves better. Period.

But defeating Marsha Blackburn won’t be easy. She’s bankrolled by special interests and deep-pocketed donors –  and has spent YEARS building a war chest to protect her seat in the Senate.

We need to harness the energy we’re seeing on the ground and translate that into a massive showing at the ballot box this year. That starts with hitting each one of our fundraising goals. But right now, I’m falling short with only hours to turn things around. I urgently need you with me, friend.  Please split a donation right now between my campaign and Jacky Rosen's, and let’s take on Marsha, the TN GOP, and all their B.S. >>>

Let’s get it done!
