Friend,

You might not be surprised to hear that Republicans in the Commonwealth have been bothered by the public exercising its right to protest. Scott Taylor, failed House and Senate candidate, posted something on Instagram that has put him in the spotlight:

"A little humor, but, for real," he wrote. He might think it's funny to joke about pointing a gun at someone, but the meme is in poor taste and reflects a worldview that criminalizes protest. To even insinuate that looters are targeting private homes intentionally mischaracterizes the news.

Donate now to make sure Scott Taylor loses his election by a landslide.

He should be embarrassed that his first response to health crises and protest is to turn to violence. Under the guise of "self-defense," Taylor advocates for civilians to turn guns on one another.

It's not right, and we won't let it stand. But we need your help to hold Taylor, and the Republicans who support him, accountable.
