I want to make sure you know about the attack on Public Citizen from a billionaire-backed dark money operation.

The response to my earlier note — copied below in case you missed it — has been overwhelming. It is a powerful thing to know that so many people are ready to stand with us as we face this challenge.

If you’re going to read one email from me this month, please make it this one.

Public Citizen is under attack from a dark money political operation bankrolled by multiple right-wing billionaires.

In a letter to the Department of Justice, the dark money outfit No Labels named Public Citizen as a group that it thinks should be investigated under the federal RICO statute — which was designed to prosecute organized crime — for an alleged “conspiracy to use retaliation, fear, intimidation, and even threats of violence.”
Of course, No Labels has No Evidence, because we haven’t committed any crimes against it.

But we still have to fight these bogus allegations — and the dark money forces corrupting our democracy.

So I’m asking:


Please donate today to help Public Citizen continue standing up to the MAGA billionaires that always seem to be coming for us.

A group of longtime supporters will match anything you contribute today dollar-for-dollar.

I’ll say that again:

Every donation made today in response to this message will be matched dollar-for-dollar.

DOLLAR-FOR-DOLLAR MATCH — CONTRIBUTE NOW

Or sign up as a Monthly Donor today and your contribution will be matched dollar-for-dollar each month for a full year!

If donating today is not a good fit, that’s okay.

Either way, I hope you appreciate knowing a little more about the work you and Public Citizen are doing together and about those who don’t like that we’re doing it.

Thank you for being part of this shared project called Public Citizen.

For democracy,

- Robert Weissman, President of Public Citizen
