PFAW Member,

We’re watching the Right Wing very closely – as we always do, with PFAW’s
Right Wing Watch – and the trends we’re seeing from the Trump
administration and its Republican allies amidst this global health crisis
are beyond disturbing.

Conspiracy theories and dangerous disinformation from the Right have
exploded, which, unfortunately, is not unexpected. But what’s arguably
just as dangerous – especially over the long term – is the naked
opportunism we’re seeing from right-wing officials, from Trump all the way
on down.

* Republican state officials are trying to use the pandemic as an excuse
to shut down access to abortion…

* Secretary of Education Betsy DeVos is exploiting the crisis to push
education privatization schemes in the form of more school vouchers
that would take money from public schools…

* Trump has announced a freeze on the enforcement of all federal
environmental regulations and protections, including rolling back the
fuel emissions standards that have been the centerpiece of the U.S.
effort to combat climate change …

And the list continues to grow…

If they are able to get away with these infringements on the rights and
interests of the public, does anyone really think they’ll reinstate the
protections they’re now trying to deny without a fight?

We need to fight back to stop the erosion of our liberties during this
crisis and continue our push to hold Trump Republicans accountable by
defeating them up and down the ballot.

Are you with us? If so, then we need you to help us finish the first
quarter of 2020 strong with a critically urgent donation before tonight’s
deadline.

your support to work right away>>



We’re $17,008 short of our budget with just hours to go and we’re
depending on our best supporters to step up today.

In these uncertain times, falling behind now could doom our work for the
rest of the year and we can’t afford to miss a beat – if we fall short,
Trump and the Far Right win. It’s that simple.

And there is so. Much. Work. To. Do.

All of the exploitation of this crisis by the Right that we’re seeing so
far is bound to get worse, so we need your help to keep sounding the
alarm.

And, of course, the Trump administration – mostly through the Treasury
Department, headed by Trump lackey Steve Mnuchin – will be in charge of
dispersing the half a trillion dollars to corporations that Congress just
authorized with its coronavirus relief legislation … so we need to be
extra vigilant in making sure the Trump administration doesn’t use that
money for corrupt corporate kickbacks and shameless self-enrichment.

Even though the nature of our field operations have changed, the campaigns
all continue … we’re still influencing media narratives, planning ads, and
employing the latest digital organizing tools to continue to counter the
Right and have a massive impact in this year’s elections.

Today is our biggest deadline of the year so far and we’re pleading with
you to stand with us during this challenging time. We’ve never needed your
steadfast support more than we do right now.

to our democracy>>



Thank you so much for your support and everything you do.

Stay safe,

Michael Keegan, President
