A new message from your friends at People For the American Way.

“Artists have played a leading role in social change movements for centuries.”
– Carrie Mae Weems, award-winning artist
“Art has the power to connect with people’s hearts as well as their minds ...
This campaign will get people thinking and talking and feeling in their guts how
much they’ve had enough of this president. And we’ll remind them that the only
remedy for that is to vote.”
– Norman Lear, PFAW cofounder
PFAW Member,
Ever since the 2016 election, people have been saying that we need to get
creative to defeat Donald Trump – so People For the American Way decided
to do just that.
We just launched the ENOUGH of Trump campaign – a groundbreaking
initiative using ART to mobilize the vote against Trump in key
presidential battleground states, with special focus on Pennsylvania,
Wisconsin, and Michigan.
We’re working with some of America’s top artists – Shepard Fairey, Ed
Ruscha, and Carrie May Weems, among many others – as well as innovative
local artists from our target states. And we’ll be engaging artists
(across various art media) and influencers all around the country to push
online and offline products, including strategically placed billboards,
aimed at getting out the vote against Trump.
Using iconic art and promoting the unifying theme of ENOUGH in diverse,
creative ways is a potential gamechanger when it comes to building our
anti-Trump movement heading into Election Day.
We’ve got big names, amazing art pieces, and ambitious goals … but we need
your help to make this campaign a success.
Will you chip in monthly with a recurring gift of $5, $15, $25 or any
amount to fuel our work to defeat Trump and Trump Republicans?

The New York Times just gave our campaign a great boost with a profile
piece published today: "For Some Artists, Election Season Means ‘Enough of
Trump.’"
Now we need your help to make this campaign have the biggest impact
possible.
Due to all the ways we’re being forced to adapt during the COVID-19
pandemic, it will require additional staff time and innovative organizing
tools to execute the ENOUGH campaign successfully.
Your contribution will fund digital events, videos, coordinated efforts to
get out the vote in our target states, advocacy material creation and
distribution, and more.
You can help make sure that we are as effective as possible in using
original art to mobilize voters – even from a distance.
Your monthly donation will be 3X-MATCHED for a whole year!

It’s no secret – we have had ENOUGH of Donald Trump’s bigotry, lies, and
corruption. And we need your help to put our plans into action to defeat
him this November.
We want to use art to fuel this moment and make sure that people across
the country know exactly what’s at stake during this election: Our lives.
Our economy. And the very soul of our democracy.
Remember: monthly sustainer gifts will be triple-matched each month for a
whole year.

Thank you for everything you do!
In unity and creativity,
