John,

Hi, I’m Shannon Watts, Founder Emerita of Moms Demand Action and one of Emerge’s national board members.

For the last 20 years, Emerge has been building a powerful grassroots network of women leaders, giving women across the country the tools they need to win critical elections and drive real change in their communities. In 2024, we saw our work pay off in a big way. Out of our more than 600 alums on the ballot last year, nearly 70% of them won their races!

With Donald Trump’s return to power, we know the fight is far from over. Women across the country are fed up with the Trump Administration's destructive policies—and they’re ready to step up and run!

Inside every woman is a spark that is just waiting to be nurtured, and when properly nurtured, that spark has the power to change the world.

Emerge women are standing up and fighting against extremism, and they need our support now more than ever in the face of a hostile administration. We need your help to ensure we have what it takes to empower women across the country by giving them the tools they need to turn their potential into electoral victories!

I believe in Emerge–that’s why I’m asking you to join me in supporting them today! If you give $20 or more today, I will send you a FREE copy of my new book, Fired Up, as my personal thank you. Books will begin shipping the second week of June. This promotion is valid while supplies last—so don’t miss this chance to make a difference!

Let’s fight back together,

Shannon Watts
