Dear MoveOn member,
We have an urgent request that needs your immediate attention.
On October 4—just about a month out from the presidential election—the Georgia Court of Appeals is tentatively set to hear arguments in Donald Trump's appeal to disqualify Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis from overseeing his case.1
If this date sticks, it is almost certain that any ruling, and the trial, will be delayed until after the election.
This appeal is yet another attempt by Trump to delay justice and avoid accountability for his actions to overturn the 2020 election results in Georgia, and we need to do everything we can to pressure the court to schedule the oral arguments for as soon as possible!
Trump and his allies are using every trick in the book to postpone his trials indefinitely, hoping that he can win the election, pardon himself, and permanently avoid accountability.
Trump has been convicted of 34 felony counts in New York. And that's from just one of FOUR criminal trials. Which means that after Trump's guilty verdict, there are still THREE ongoing criminal trials to resolve!
We cannot allow this pattern of delay and obstruction to continue. If we can raise the funds, we're planning to run a full-page ad in The Atlanta Journal-Constitution to dramatically increase the pressure on the appeals court in the state to allow the trial to go forward. And we will be delivering more than 25,000 signatures of MoveOn members to the Georgia Court of Appeals.
We need your help to raise $50,000 to make this ad happen. Are you in?

Trump's strategy is clear: delay his trials for as long as possible, keep critical information from voters, and then claim immunity or pardon himself if he wins the next election.
The public deserves to know the truth about Trump's actions before the 2024 election. But, unfortunately, Trump's strategy has been effective so far, with three of four trials postponed indefinitely.
What slowed down the trial in Georgia is that Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis has been unfairly targeted in an attempt to disqualify her from prosecuting Trump. Despite the baseless allegations and personal attacks, Willis has shown unwavering commitment to holding Trump accountable.
We must support her and demand that the courts allow her to continue her work without further delays.
Please chip in to demand an end to the delays. Your donation will help us run this crucial ad and expand our campaign demanding a speedy trial, justice, and accountability for Trump.

Want to support MoveOn's work? The MAGA movement's book bans have forced teachers and librarians across the country to remove books from their shelves and censor what young people can learn. MoveOn is fighting back, including by filling a "Banned Bookmobile" with books that the far right has banned and driving it to key cities and towns to raise the visibility of book bans, hand out banned books for free, and bring people together to stop censorship. To keep up the fight against book bans and the MAGA politicians who support them, we need your help.
