John,

Have you been watching the Republican National Convention? I have. I kind of hope you haven’t; it’s hard to stomach.

This week I have seen a frightening amount of hate and vitriol coming from the people the Republican party has chosen to present to the rest of the country -- the masks are off, both figuratively and literally.

Every single moment of this hate-dominated convention is a stark reminder of just how crucial it is that we do everything we can to win this election. Our democracy is at stake.

As you know, DFA is working through our Protect America’s Vote campaign to mobilize voters and stop voter suppression across the country. We have a unique opportunity right now to win $250,000 in funding for these efforts, but we need your help.

Please vote for DFA today in the CREDO Mobile grant challenge so we can earn up to $250,000 in support of our Protect America’s Vote campaign to defeat Trump, flip the Senate, and win critical local elections nationwide >>

Our Protect America’s Vote campaign will counteract Republican attempts to suppress the vote on multiple fronts.

We’ll fight to expand vote-by-mail, mobilize early voting, organize voter protection teams to stop in-person voter suppression tactics in its tracks, and drive a massive 50-state voter information campaign so every progressive voter has the information they need to make sure their vote counts in this election.

And if there’s one thing the RNC is making crystal clear, we’re going to need every single piece of our Protect America’s Vote campaign fully funded in order to win.

So make sure you vote for DFA in CREDO Mobile’s grant challenge. Every cent of the $250,000 we could earn here will help our efforts to Protect America’s Vote and win in November >>

Thank you for all you do to fight for our progressive values and defend our democracy in this election. It’s going to take all of us to defeat Trump and elect progressives across the country this November.

— Charles
