Disinformation is surging around the country and now, more than ever, we need to continue to fight back.

I need all your support before our end-of-quarter deadline in 72 hours to help me continue battling disinformation. Can I count on you to chip in before then? [[link removed]]

I wanted to share this quote from you from the recent New York Times article on the spread of election disinformation:

“The people that benefit from the spread of disinformation have effectively silenced many of the people that would try to call them out.” - Disinformation researcher, Professor Kate Starbird, University of Washington (NYT article, 3/17/24).

I need you to know one thing, John: I will not be silenced.

Despite threats and protests, I will continue to lead with the truth.

I believe in our country and in the values of democracy too much to sit back and watch disinformation activists spread lies and undermine our democratic principles.

This end-of-quarter deadline is an incredibly important milestone in this election cycle. This is when disinformation activists watch and see if their messaging is working and if we’re not prepared to react with the truth. That’s why I need to raise another $13,250 before March 31st.

Will you please chip in $5 or whatever you can right now? [[link removed]]
