Hi there,
As attorney general of Washington state, it is my job to hold big corporations and powerful interests accountable when they don’t play by the rules and harm Washingtonians. That’s why, for example, I’ve taken on Big Pharma for price-gouging and fueling the opioid epidemic. And that’s why I’ve defeated the NRA in court, and worked with our legislature to pass progressive gun legislation that saves lives across Washington.
Because of this work (and our track record of winning these cases), these corporations and their billionaire owners have pledged significant sums to the Republican Attorneys General Association. This organization’s sole mission is to elect more Republican AGs who will be in the pockets of their corporate benefactors. To that end, RAGA just reversed their policy on targeting incumbent attorneys general -- unlocking millions of dollars from corporations on the condition that the money be spent directly on efforts to unseat Democratic incumbents like me.
We need to combat RAGA’s impending attacks and the vindictive corporate spending that’s funding their operation. In 2012, RAGA spent a record-breaking $3 million against me. It was the most they’d ever spent in any AG’s race across the country. But today, they are spending double that in states like Virginia and Kentucky. It’s only going to get worse.
That’s why I’m asking for your support today. Our team still needs to reach 2,000 contributions by the end of September. I’m not accepting any corporate money, so your grassroots support is essential to meeting this goal. Can you help us fight back against the corporations that are trying to buy this election by giving just $1 today?
Thank you,
Bob
