Dear MoveOn member,

I'm more hopeful than I've been in months. But I need to ask us all to be
clear-eyed about the odds we still face in electing Kamala Harris and
defeating Donald Trump.

We live in a divided country, the Electoral College is biased toward
Republicans, and I have an overriding worry about the undertow of
authoritarian fascism, especially when supported by Big Money.

Thankfully, my friends at MoveOn—experts at the intersection of
cutting-edge digital political tactics and voter turnout—are running their
most innovative and ambitious presidential get-out-the-vote campaign in
their 25-year history.

MoveOn's nationwide campaign to get out the vote, elect Kamala Harris, and
defeat Trump and the MAGA movement?



For decades, I've argued that the consolidation of great wealth in the
hands of a few undermines our democracy. Wealth is most dangerous when
transformed into political power.

Elon Musk is the poster child for this concern.

One way Musk is transforming his gargantuan wealth into political power is
by committing huge gobs of cash—possibly as much as $45 million a month—to
a new pro-Trump Super PAC founded and funded by other tech oligarchs.

Musk also is transforming his wealth into political power by posting
pro-Trump, anti-Kamala Harris messages to his 189 million followers on X,
formerly known as Twitter. The reason Musk has 189 million followers is
that he owns X. He can adjust its algorithm to give his tweets maximum
exposure and effectively buy and capture huge numbers of X users.

Trump is obviously delighted with Musk. They are two rich and famous
narcissists who crave attention, lie through their teeth, enjoy provoking
critics, hate labor unions, refuse to be held accountable for anything,
and have utter contempt for democracy.

Toward the end of America's first Gilded Age, Louis Brandeis, the eminent
American jurist, said: "We must make our choice. We may have democracy, or
we may have wealth concentrated in the hands of a few, but we can't have
both."

So what do we do about my overriding worry? We do everything we can to
make Kamala Harris our next president. And that's why I am asking you to
donate today to MoveOn.

As the nation's largest independent grassroots progressive political
organization, and one staffed by some of the country's foremost experts on
cutting-edge digital technology and voter turnout, MoveOn truly has a
special place in this election.



[ [link removed] ]But as a grassroots organization that is powered primarily by
small-dollar donations from people like you, they need your help to make
it happen. Donate $9 today. Every dollar helps.



After Harris announced for president, MoveOn members quickly voted to
endorse her candidacy in one of the most decisive endorsement votes in the
organization's history.

Now, MoveOn is ramping up what was already their most innovative and
strategic election-year campaign ever. Their ambitious plan is to reach
and turn out 1.5 million surge voters—voters who don't consistently show
up to the polls but vote Democratic when they do—in the critical
battleground states and districts that will decide this election.

MoveOn members are reaching these voters, who tend not to pay close
attention to politics, face-to-face in their homes, via text, on social
media, through phone calls, by sending them postcards, ensuring they see
our ads, and more.

John, with less than 100 days to go until Election Day, it is
time to go all-out in full force to defeat Trump, elect Kamala Harris, and
deliver a decisive blow to authoritarian fascism.

Thanks for all you do.

Want to support MoveOn? The MAGA right is declaring war, and Project 2025
is their battle plan. Project 2025 threatens our rights, attacks
communities of color, hurts middle- and working-class families, and
undermines our democracy. But we will not back down or let Trump steamroll
our nation.

Will you donate to power MoveOn's election plan, stop Trump, and ensure
Project 2025 is never enacted? 



[ [link removed] ]Yes, I'll chip in.
