Dear MoveOn member,
After years of grassroots organizing, Georgia is on the verge of flipping blue in a presidential election for the first time in decades. Now, Georgia's two Senate runoff elections on January 5 will decide which party controls the Senate.
If Democrats can win both Senate seats, we will end Mitch McConnell's despicable reign as Senate majority leader.
But if we lose even one of those seats, McConnell will retain control of the Senate—and without a Democratic majority, McConnell will be able to single-handedly stall, obstruct, and block every single piece of Democratic legislation.
These Georgia Senate elections are our last chance to end Mitch McConnell's stranglehold on the Senate until 2022.
That means that the next eight weeks will decide the next two years.
If we win, Democrats in Congress will have it in their power to pass bold legislation to tackle the pandemic, rebuild our economy, expand health care, make sweeping reforms to our racist policing system, and get Big Money out of politics. And President Joe Biden will sign those measures into law.
But if we fall short in Georgia, we can kiss all that and more goodbye.
We know the key to victory in Georgia is ensuring organizers on the ground have the resources they need to reach millions of voters and get out the vote.
That's why MoveOn is raising funds for Fair Fight Action and the New Georgia Project Action Fund, grassroots organizations that have for years been working to mobilize Democratic voters—especially Black voters—to the polls.
With the elections just weeks away, we are working on an absolutely urgent time crunch.
The voter registration deadline is less than a month away. And in exactly one week, voters will begin receiving mail-in ballots.1
As you can see, we have to start acting RIGHT NOW.
We know the 2020 elections have been long and grueling. But we have unfinished business.
We must do everything in our power to ensure Democrat Rev. Raphael Warnock defeats corrupt GOP Senator Kelly Loeffler. And we must power Democrat Jon Ossoff to victory over right-wing GOP stooge David Perdue.
Thanks for all you do.
–Chris, Dom, Mana, Amy, and the rest of the team
