Hi John, it’s Martin Sheen. 

While you might recognize me from my roles as an actor—including one former (fictional) president—I’m reaching out to you today as an American citizen who’s concerned about the most important Senate race in the country. 

The Senate majority will come down to Senator Jon Tester’s race in Montana, where election experts are predicting a “toss-up” election. 

If you’re able, please split a donation right now between Blue Amp Action and Jon Tester’s campaign to help Jon defeat Mitch McConnell’s handpicked candidate and save the Senate majority.

We know what will happen if Jon loses his race in Montana. 

If Republicans flip this seat, they’ll take back control of the Senate majority. They’ll launch an assault on women’s bodily autonomy. They’ll undermine voting rights and the foundations of our democracy. They’ll privatize health care, transfer off public lands, and pull the rug under Americans in favor of their extreme agenda.

To stop them, Jon will need every bit of support he can get. Jon’s running against an out-of-state multimillionaire, and Republican groups are outspending his campaign. 

Jon is counting on your grassroots donation to combat the nearly $90 million Mitch McConnell’s cronies are pouring into Montana to flip his seat—a seat experts agree will determine control of the Senate.

Please, will you split $10 or more to help Jon Tester win in Montana? Election Day is only 5 days away, so every donation matters in a race as impactful as this one.

Thank you,

Martin Sheen

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.
