Friend --

Welcome to Day 2 of the Country First annual Dash for Democracy.  If you're ready to take action, let's go!

When aggressors abroad are allowed to bully and abuse sovereign nations, it doesn’t just endanger faraway countries—it puts every American’s security, jobs, and freedoms at risk.

Here’s why this matters to you and American Democracy:

• We lose markets for our goods, hurting American workers and farmers.
• Aggressors may push further, attacking allies, which could force our troops into war.
• Our freedoms shrink—abroad and eventually right here at home.

Supporting Ukraine sends a clear, unmistakable message: bullying and aggression will not be rewarded. It protects global stability, keeps trade routes open, strengthens our economy, and ensures the values we cherish—freedom and self-determination—remain strong.

If America bends to strongmen abroad, you can be sure that leaders in Washington will start suppressing freedoms here at home. We cannot let that happen.

Click the Action Button below to email or call your Representative.

Tell them: I stand with Ukraine because defending democracy abroad protects democracy here at home. America must continue to support Ukraine and send a clear message to aggressors everywhere: freedom wins.  

History shows that when America leads, democracy advances. When America falters, authoritarians gain ground. The world is watching.

Onward,
