Our goal with the Wednesday Wire is to give you the tools to boost Democrats and take on Trump and his Republican allies here in Massachusetts. Use these talking points on social media, as the basis for a letter to the editor of your local paper, in emails to your personal network, or in conversations with your friends and neighbors.

• You already know MassFiscal--last year they were inducted into the “Hypocrites Hall of Fame” for advocating greater transparency and accountability while going to extreme--potentially illegal--lengths to conceal the funders of its right-wing, anti-Massachusetts agenda.
• Koch money has long supported MassFiscal. In its lawsuits seeking to overturn state laws restricting corporate campaign contributions and requiring campaigns and PACs to disclose their donors, MassFiscal was heavily supported by groups with significant Koch funding. 
• This just proves what we already know--MassFiscal never had any intention of being the nonpartisan advocacy organization they claim to be on their website. They’re a front for the national radical-right, trying to inject their extremist agenda into Massachusetts.

• Three seats in the legislature flipped from red to blue because voters know that Democrats are the ones who are going to get the job done for working families while Republicans follow the lead of the most corrupt, damaging and incompetent President our country has ever seen. 
• All four Democrats running in this spring’s special elections ran positive, forward-thinking campaigns dedicated to lifting people up that resonated with voters across the state--especially during such an unprecedented time.
• MassDems invested in these races early, hiring new staff to focus on priority areas, and innovating new ways to campaign during a pandemic--because success this spring sets us up to win this fall.  
• We’re ready to bring the same energy to the general election with our MobilizeMA campaign--a coordinated effort to in-state and battleground state support effort to kick Donald Trump out of office and elect Democrats at every level. CLICK HERE to join MobilizeMA.

• Last week, Trump made a special trip to Maine to use essential workers as a backdrop to claim victory over coronavirus--even while the pandemic rages on unchecked.
  • We already know Trump cares about his polling numbers and not American lives, so it’s not surprising that he visited a facility that makes swabs for COVID-19 testing without a mask--and they had to throw out all the swabs manufactured during his visit. 
• Trump’s visit came at the end of a week where he tweeted that protestors should be shot, threatened to use the American military against the American people, and tear gassed peaceful protestors for a photo-op.
• He disguised this campaign stop as an official visit, but his goal was clear: prop-up Susan Collins--the last Republican in the New England delegation--and save her reelection bid.
• That’s why the Maine Democrats have doubled down on their efforts to defeat Collins and take on Trump in Maine and this week, they’re hosting a Call from Home Week of Action. 
  • One on one conversations with voters is the best way to make sure Democrats protect the House, flip the Senate, and beat Donald Trump--CLICK HERE to start talking to voters now.
