john,

We’ve talked a lot about the state of our democracy and what’s at stake since Donald Trump came back into power.

And it turns out, our concerns weren’t unfounded.

Trump has been working to try and rig congressional maps nationwide in his favor. He’s tried again and again to undermine free and fair elections, and earlier this week, he even went as far as to suggest that Americans might not mind a dictator.

This is exactly why so many of you have told us democracy and voting rights are your top priorities for 2025. Some of you have even asked if we’ll still have an election in 2028, and sadly, with the way things are going under Trump—it's not necessarily an unfair question to ask.

Kim is on the frontlines, fighting back against the Trump administration. But with Republicans still in the majority, she can only do so much. Will you chip in toward our end-of-month deadline to ensure Kim can not only keep WA-08 blue but help flip the House for Democrats? →

The 2026 midterm elections are our first real chance to send Trump and his cronies a message loud and clear: No, we do NOT want a dictator, and we will NOT let him do whatever he wants. But john, the reality is that in order to stop him, we have to flip the House blue and keep extreme Trump-Republicans out of positions of power at every level.

Kim is on the front lines of this fight, and if we lose this district, Republicans get one step closer to expanding and retaining the unchecked power they’re openly talking about. We must do our part to build the firewall our democracy desperately needs. Chip in $5, or any amount that works for you, to help Kim hold the line before we fall short of our August end-of-month fundraising goal. →

Thank you for stepping up,

Team Schrier
