John,
Last week I emailed you about why Stacey Abrams would be an amazing Vice Presidential pick for Joe Biden. This week gave me another reason we should all get behind her for VP.
TWO WORDS: CASH NOW
Stacey Abrams and Andrew Yang announced a partnership to deliver $1,000 to 100,000 families on SNAP benefits, struggling to survive right now under severe economic conditions. [link removed]
Direct cash payments to support struggling Americans is exactly what Congress should be passing right now, but Mitch McConnell is more concerned about bailing out the large corporations now and providing a pittance to working families.
Stacey and Andrew aren't waiting for Congress, they are taking action. That proactive approach is exactly the type of quality that we need in a VP.
Join me today, sign our petition supporting Stacey Abrams for Vice President - [link removed]

P.S. Please share the petition with your friends and family. Help us show that thousands of Americans back a competent, intelligent, get things done kind of Vice President!

John,
If you are like me, you followed and were inspired by Stacey Abrams message and campaign for Georgia Governor in 2018.
She proved that by focusing on ALL the voters and potential new voters, and not leaving anyone ignored, we can confound the conventional political wisdom about what is possible in so-called red states.
John, now that the Democratic Presidential Primary is winding down, we must move quickly as a party to unify. The person who I believe can unify the Democratic Party is Stacey Abrams. That's why I'm starting this petition to call for Joe Biden to name Stacey Abrams as his running mate. The time to come together is now.
SIGN ON TO OUR PETITION FOR STACEY ABRAMS AS VICE PRESIDENT - [link removed]
In her 2019 published The Abrams Playbook: The Strategy and Path to Victory in 2020 she skillfully charts the way forward for Democrats to win in states that were previously thought unwinnable. Providing the blueprint for Democrats to win up and down the ballot in Georgia in 2020. If Georgia goes blue, we not only win the White House, we Flip the Senate as well. [link removed]
Here are the highlights:
- Georgia is competitive up and down the ballot. With a diverse, growing population and rapidly changing electorate, Georgia is not a future opportunity for Democrats; it is a necessity right now.
- The Abrams strategy provides a blueprint for Democratic victory up and down the ballot in 2020. By expanding the electorate and delivering a clear, values-based message to all voters, Democrats are poised to win Georgia in 2020.
- Large national and local investments can unleash Georgia's potential. By investing big and investing early in registration, organizing, and turnout, Democrats can further change Georgia's electorate and maximize turnout among voters of color and Democratic-leaning white voters.
- Democrats must reject false choices and apply an evidence-based approach in Georgia and beyond. We do not lose winnable white voters because we engage communities of color. We do not lose urban votes because we campaign in rural areas.
- Georgia is every bit as competitive as perennial battleground states. With one of the youngest and the most African American electorate of any competitive state, Georgia has demographic advantages that don't exist in other states.
John, if you are inspired by Stacey Abrams, if you believe that her strategy is the playbook we need to follow in 2020, if you want to see the first African American Woman Vice President, sign on to our petition today.
