John,

I wanted to make sure you saw this email from my team:

Donald Trump is trying to take away the tools that power this movement. The reports are true — he's taken action against ActBlue, the platform that grassroots donors like you have used for years to elect Democratic pro-choice women up and down the ballot.

We know why he's doing it: because he's scared.

AND HE SHOULD BE

Scared of what we've built. Scared of the women we're helping to elect. Scared of you — and the millions of people across the country who are ready to fight back.

That's why now is the time to dig in, not back off.

So give the email a read, and then donate now. Let's send a message: This movement is STRONG — no matter what Trump throws at us:

If you've saved your payment information with ActBlue, your donation will go through immediately:

DONATE $15	DONATE $35
DONATE $50	DONATE $100
DONATE $250	DONATE ANOTHER AMOUNT

With you in the fight,

Christen Sparago (they/she)
Interim Vice President of Digital, EMILYs List

John,

You may have seen the reports: Donald Trump just took action against ActBlue, the online donation platform used across the Democratic ecosystem and by countless campaigns and organizations.

Let's be clear: when Trump and his allies lash out, it's not because they're winning. It's because they're afraid.

Afraid of the momentum Democrats are building. Afraid of the women we're helping to elect. Afraid of you — and the grassroots power that's fueling this fight.

As EMILYs List President Jessica Mackler put it:

"Republicans are poised to lose big in the midterms, so Trump is doing what he does best: distract, create chaos, increase anxiety, and instill fear. But Trump's focus on ActBlue tells us one thing: they fear Democratic power and the countless grassroots donors across the country who are fueling the resistance. They don't want us to fight back, but we won't let their pathetic strategy work. Now's the time to double down, not back away."

We're not backing down. We're not going dark. And we're not letting anyone tell us we can't win. Donate now to help elect Democratic pro-choice women who aren't afraid of threats from bullies or tinpot dictators:

If you've saved your payment information with ActBlue, your donation will go through immediately:

DONATE $15	DONATE $35
DONATE $50	DONATE $100
DONATE $250	DONATE ANOTHER AMOUNT

  Whatever comes next, this movement is ready.

Thanks for standing with us,

the EMILYs List Digital Team
