As someone who came to the United States from a country that suffered under a military dictatorship, the fight for freedom is personal.

For too long, extremist Republicans like Scott have co-opted the protection of personal liberties as a top priority — but if we're honest with ourselves, the only "freedoms" he's fighting for in Congress are his own, trying to:

• Control women's private medical decisions
• Prevent seniors from retiring with dignity
• Get even richer off the taxpayers' dime

Scott's understanding of "freedom" begins and ends with himself and his ability to do, say, and spend anything to convince voters otherwise.

But because of grassroots supporters like you, we're finally busting his monopoly on the airwaves and letting voters know that they deserve better.

As Florida's next Senator, you can count on me to fight for everyone's freedom to live as they choose — and not as extremists like Scott demand.

But without your help to hit my rapid-response $150,000 goal by 11:59 p.m., I simply won't be able to keep this message on the air, let alone overcome the volley of televised attacks that he's sure to send our way.

So please, friend, will you pitch in $5 or more now to help keep up the fight on Florida's airwaves until Election Day? Every cent you donate will have a huge impact on our chances of flipping Florida blue.

Thank you,

Debbie

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. 

And savvy grassroots activists like you know, just like we do, that we can’t stop watching the people we help elect: after the elections, we have to keep organizing support for the policies we like and pushing back against the ones we don’t.

When the public tunes out between elections and the only people our elected officials hear from are the paid lobbyists of wealthy corporations, our government stops being accountable to the needs of ordinary families.

Democracy never sleeps, and neither can we.

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.
