Friend,

Do you remember what it was like to wake up on January 6th and see your nation’s Capitol under siege?

The shock. The disbelief. The pit in your stomach as images poured in of chaos, violence, and an attack on the peaceful transfer of power — something Americans had always taken for granted.

Tomorrow marks five years since that day. And while the barricades have come down, the danger to our democracy has never been greater.

January 6th was not just an attack on a building in Washington. It was an attack on the very foundation of our democracy. It was a reminder that our democratic institutions are fragile, and that it only survives if everyday citizens are willing to stand up and defend it.

That is why Country First was born and that it is why Country First exists.

In the aftermath of January 6th, Americans from across the political spectrum came together because we refused to accept extremism, lies, and division as the future of our country. We believed — and still believe — that there is a Reasonable Majority willing to put country over party and democracy over power.

Five years later, the fight continues.

The same forces that fueled January 6th are still trying to undermine trust in our elections, weaken democratic norms, and divide Americans. The question is the same as it was then:

Will we stand by — or will we act?

Today, we’re asking you to help lead the answer.

Will you make a contribution to Country First to help defend and renew American democracy?

Your support allows us to:

• Mobilize Americans who believe in truth, the Constitution, and the rule of law through our Days of Action campaigns
• Push back against extremism and anti-democratic movements.
• Build a durable, pro-democracy movement that lasts beyond any single election or candidate through our Future Democracy Leader program.

On January 6th, many Americans felt powerless as they watched events unfold. Today, we’re not powerless.

We have the power to organize.
We have the power to speak out.
And we have the power to act — together.

Thank you for standing with us, for remembering what’s at stake, and for continuing the fight for the country we all love.

Country First — always.

In gratitude,

Country First Team

P.S. Tomorrow at 1 PM Eastern. We’re organizing a Day of Action to urge House Leadership to do what should already be done: hang the plaque and formally honor the law enforcement officers who defended our democracy. If Members of Congress truly Back the Blue, this should be easy. RSVP Today
