You're getting this message because you’ve supported good causes and Democratic candidates. We need your support to continue fighting for our democracy. We love having you in our network, but if you no longer wish to hear from us, you can unsubscribe here.

Did you see the news,John:

SCOTUS overturned the federal ban on bump stocks, which allow semi automatic weapons to shoot even faster in effect making them machine guns. They turn guns into weapons of war, plain and simple. They shouldn’t be allowed ANYWHERE near civilians. Bump stocks are what made the Las Vegas shooting one of the deadliest in US history. It was so bad EVEN TRUMP let ATF Ban Bump Stocks.

This decision only solidifies that we cannot count on the Supreme Court to protect us. 

That’s why Leaders We Deserve and Blue Amp Action are fighting tooth and nail to elect young leaders across the country like Nadarius Clark, whose gun safety bill was signed by Virginia’s Republican governor. 

Because the school shooting generation is going to be the one to save us from the threat of gun violence. 

But we, and our candidates, don’t take any corporate money to fund these campaigns — we rely 100% on the support of folks like you and NO corporations. If you’re with us, please consider splitting $25 or any amount you can between Leaders We Deserve and Blue Amp Action today.

With your help, we can FINALLY get these dangerous weapons off our streets. We can save lives. 

Thank you.

About BlueAmp Action:

We cannot sugarcoat the current situation. Right-wing authoritarianism, defeated by a worldwide coalition during WWII, was only in hibernation. Over the past decade it has infected democratic societies--including ours. It is as simple as it is terrifying: What we do now will define the future of our country and world. 

We at Blue Amp Action are dedicated to liberal, open societies, where reason and science are applied to solve our problems; where civil rights--including voting rights!--are protected for all. We fight for these values every day. Speaking up on our platforms, raising the voices and the political prospects of liberal pols and pundits. 

So we ask that you support our work, so we can continue to engage in this fight every moment of every day. So our kids grow up in democracy, not dystopia.

Thank you for your support for all we do! Please follow Cliff Schecter on Twitter @cliffschecter, or subscribe to The Takedown with Cliff Schecter on YouTube, to keep up to date with this battle for the heart and soul of our country.
