***********************

Friend,

We are living through a defining moment for this country.

The United States stands at a crossroads, with two radically different
visions pulling us in opposite directions. One path leads toward a more
just, inclusive, and democratic future rooted in the American Way. The
other is being driven by Donald Trump and a Republican Party that have
fully embraced extremism, cruelty, and power at any cost.

This is real, and it is happening right now across the entire country. We
see it every day in the violence and intimidation by federal agencies with
no accountability. In the open attacks on our elections and our courts. In
the relentless effort to strip away reproductive freedom, silence dissent,
and criminalize entire communities. The modern Republican Party has made
it clear that their vision of this country only works for the wealthy,
powerful, and well-connected, while everyone else is expected to accept
fewer rights, fewer resources, and fewer protections.

The American Way that People For the American Way believes in is
fundamentally different. It is grounded in dignity, fairness, and equal
justice. It is a country where democracy is protected, not manipulated.
Where our institutions serve the people, not a single man or an extremist
movement. Where freedom means the freedom to live, learn, vote, and thrive
without fear.

Right now, that vision is under direct attack.

Trump and his allies are not hiding their agenda. They are working to
entrench minority rule, reward loyalty over the rule of law, and use the
machinery of government to punish opponents and shield themselves from
accountability. Republicans in Congress and throughout the country have
chosen to go along with it, even as the damage is impossible to ignore.

What we are witnessing is a fundamental rejection of the American Way and
a stark divide between two competing visions for the future of this
country.

Republicans under Trump offer minority rule and intimidation versus
Democrats fighting for a democracy where every vote counts.

A government that protects the powerful from consequences versus a
government that believes no one is above the law.

Violence and fear used as political tools versus accountability,
restraint, and respect for human life.

An economy rigged for billionaires and corporations versus an economy that
serves working families and communities.

Attacks on reproductive freedom, voting rights, and free expression versus
a commitment to personal liberty and equal justice.

A politics of fear that targets immigrant communities versus an embrace of
the strength, dignity, diversity, and value they bring to our nation.

Loyalty to one man versus loyalty to the Constitution and the people it
serves.

These are not just differences in opinion. They are moral choices with
real consequences for people’s lives.

worth fighting for, please make a contribution today to help People For
the American Way mobilize voters and elect candidates who will ensure this
country moves forward, not backward under MAGA rule. >>

Trump and the MAGA movement are counting on exhaustion and distraction.
They are counting on people looking away while they consolidate power and
rewrite the rules in their favor. We cannot afford to give them that
opening.

Your donation helps fuel the work that exposes extremism, mobilizes
voters, and supports candidates across the country who are willing to
stand up to this dangerous agenda. It helps ensure that the American Way
does not become a slogan of the past, but a living principle we fight for
and defend.

[ [link removed] ]Please make a contribution today to help in the fight for the American
Way and elect candidates nationwide who support it. Help build the power
we need to stop what the Trump regime is trying to impose on this
country. >>

History will remember what we do at this crossroads. Together, we can
choose the American Way and fight for a future worthy of it.

With resolve,

Zach VanHouten
