John,
On this day in 1868, the 14th Amendment of the Constitution was ratified, and American democracy was fundamentally changed, for the better.
The 14th Amendment granted citizenship to all persons born or naturalized in the U.S., including formerly enslaved people, and it ensured equal protection under the law, laying the groundwork for all of the subsequent landmark civil rights legislation that followed.
The 14th Amendment has been used as the basis to expand our rights and fight discrimination for over a century and a half. But we are facing some serious challenges right now. Voting rights, equality, and even our democracy itself are all under threat by MAGA extremists.
Will you make a contribution of $14 today in honor of the passage of the 14th Amendment to show your commitment to upholding our constitutionally protected rights? [[link removed]]
CONTRIBUTE $14 IN HONOR OF THE 14th AMENDEMENT [[link removed]]
One of the stated policy objectives of the MAGA movement is to end birthright citizenship and alter due process in our courts. This is a direct attack on our Constitution and we need to do our part to stop them.
The principles of the 14th Amendment are more important than ever, and your CT Dems are committed to upholding these values and fighting for the rights of all citizens. Your Connecticut Democrats are fighting to:
*

fair
in
