Hey, it’s Al Franken. 

I’m writing because I want you to split $50 or whatever you can (or more than you can) between Blue Amp Action and my friend Josh Riley to help him win one of the most important races in the country in 2024.

Josh is running for Congress in New York’s 19th District, a key district to taking back the House. Here’s why I support Josh — and why you should too!

Josh knows policy issues backward and forward. Together Josh and I did good stuff when he was my counsel on the U.S. Senate Judiciary Committee – good stuff like protecting victims of domestic violence.

In the Violence Against Women Act, Josh and I wrote a provision that protected survivors of domestic violence from homelessness. And Josh and I got that protection through a divided Senate, a Republican House, and signed into law.

Republicans lie and say Josh was bad on crime, but here’s the truth. Josh and I advanced legislation that funded the police! Providing bullet-proof vests for local and state police. And funding crisis intervention training to teach police officers how to de-escalate situations.

Together in the Senate, we also made a lot of Republican witnesses look very bad at hearings when we cross-examined them.

Josh really, really cares about all the stuff I care about. And he is the hardest worker I know.

And finally, NY-19 is considered a tossup and one of the most competitive in the nation.

So, what do you say? Will you join me by splitting a contribution between Blue Amp Action and Josh’s campaign today?

 

This is important to me. And to our nation.

Thanks, 

Al

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.
