Dear MoveOn member, 

A new poll shows that the U.S. Senate races in Georgia are both in a dead
heat.^1 That means that we have a real shot at winning both seats and
flipping the Senate blue.

But we just got some very disturbing news: Georgia's GOP Senators Kelly
Loeffler and David Perdue—along with their billionaire backers—have
reserved an astonishing $40 million in air time for ads.^2 The Democrats?
Only $7 million.^3

No. no. no. NO! We cannot let this happen.

Which is why, today, MoveOn is announcing an ambitious new campaign to
reserve as much TV and radio ad space as possible to help power Democrats
Jon Ossoff and Raphael Warnock to victory.



With TV air time getting bought up as you read this, we need to move fast
and stay focused. Will you chip in $5 a month to help fuel
our work to get our ads on the air, keep them up through the election, and
head into 2021 strong and able to fight for progressive change with Joe
Biden in the White House?

[ [link removed] ]Yes, I'll chip in.

[ [link removed] ]No, I'm sorry, I can't make a monthly donation.



John, we need to be clear about what we're up against. 

GOP Senator Kelly Loeffler got rich off of shady deals on Wall Street and
is now the wealthiest member of Congress.^4 Loeffler is using her fortune
as a slush fund to finance her campaign, and she's already plowed
$23,000,000 of her own money into the race.^5 

But that's not all we're facing. Charles Koch and other right-wing
billionaires have also poured tens of millions into the elections, and
Mitch McConnell's PAC is planning to spend massive amounts to help prop up
Loeffler and Perdue.^6

MoveOn doesn't take a dime of corporate money, so we may not be able to
compete with the GOP and their billionaire backers dollar for dollar, but
luckily, we know how to use data-driven targeting to make sure that the
right voters see our messages, which means every dollar you give goes a
long way.

The companies that sell TV and radio ad space in Georgia just told us that
if we don't purchase time right now, all of the ad space might be gone
before we get the chance to get our messages in support of Rev. Warnock
and Jon Ossoff on the air. We can't let that happen.



So we need your help. Will you chip in $5 a month to help
get our ads on the air, keep them up to power Jon Ossoff and Raphael
Warnock to victory, and enable us to keep up the fight in 2021?

[ [link removed] ]Yes, I'll chip in monthly.

[ [link removed] ]No, I'm sorry, I can't make a monthly donation.



It's no secret that winning in Georgia is the ONLY way Democrats can take
back the Senate. And right now, Ossoff and Warnock are running neck and
neck against their GOP opponents. 

We CAN win. 

We CAN flip the Senate. 

We CAN end Mitch McConnell's stranglehold on the Senate. 

But it's going to take all of us stepping up and doing our part. 



Please, if you can, will you chip in $5 a month to help us
win in Georgia, flip the Senate, and give Joe Biden and Kamala Harris a
clear path to achieve a bold agenda during their administration? 

[ [link removed] ]Yes, I'll chip in monthly.

[ [link removed] ]No, I'm sorry, I can't make a monthly donation.



Thanks for all you do.
