Friend,

It’s been a tough year.

So many of us have lost friends and family due to the coronavirus. A couple of months ago, we lost Congressman John Lewis, a civil rights hero who brought so much to our nation. This past weekend, we lost Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg.

We’re here to remind you that it is okay to be sad. With Donald Trump rushing a new Supreme Court justice, with no end in sight for the coronavirus pandemic, with so much uncertainty ahead -- it’s okay to be afraid.

But what’s not okay is giving up. Losing hope. We can’t give up.

There are leaders in Congress leading the fight for social justice, for workers’ rights, for economic fairness for everyone. There are leaders who will be progressive champions for us all, who will stand up to Republicans trying to steal a Supreme Court seat from us. Georgette will be one of those leaders.

We need to get her to Congress to protect and continue John Lewis and RBG’s work. We’ve got a serious goal of $50,000 for the final FEC deadline of this election that we can’t fall short of -- chip in whatever you can here.

If you’ve saved your payment information with ActBlue Express, your donation will go through immediately:

We cannot and will not give in. We won’t be discouraged -- because that’s what Donald Trump and his followers want. They want us to give up so they can plague the country with their misogynist, homophobic, racist agenda.

Georgette will not stand by and let that happen.

By giving to our campaign we can and will make sure that women’s rights, civil rights, LGBTQ+ rights, voting rights, and so much more are protected.

The time has never been more urgent -- and with our biggest FEC deadline yet, we can’t risk missing our $50,000 fundraising goal. Chip in $5 to this campaign so Georgette can uphold and protect our heroes’ legacies in Congress. Together, we’ll send Georgette to Congress and ensure that John Lewis, RBG, and all our loved ones lost to COVID-19 are remembered.
