John,

We set an end-of-month fundraising goal to make up for how Republicans
tried to bankrupt us. We’re still short of that goal, so let us explain
why it’s so important:

Over the summer, Attorney General Ken Paxton sued Powered by People and
asked a judge to jail Beto because we fought for our democracy when Greg
Abbott and Donald Trump unleashed their gerrymandering scheme.

When all those attacks happened, we didn’t back down for a second. We
rallied, we organized, we took Paxton to court, and we won. An all
Abbott-appointed appeals court ruled in our favor.

But the months-long fight cost us more than $400,000 in legal fees. That’s
why Paxton went after us to begin with. He knew we hadn’t done anything
wrong. He sued us so we would have to spend resources fighting him in
court instead of pouring it into registering and turning out voters.

While he made us use our financial resources, he couldn’t take our most
important resource: the grassroots power of the people.

We are more committed than ever to organizing throughout Texas,
registering voters, turning them out, and winning elections up and down
the ballot. That’s why we’re asking you to help us make up the difference
from this costly lawsuit.

deadline to help us build up the cash we need to hire more organizers,
train more volunteers, host more events, register and turn out voters, and
win power for the people?
