Friend -

Last year, I was the Democratic Party's gubernatorial nominee in Georgia and became the first African American woman in U.S. history to be nominated for governor by a major political party.

In my bid for office, I intentionally highlighted communities of color and other marginalized groups, not to the exclusion of others but as a recognition of their specific policy needs.

Because I believe that we can talk about identity and still include everyone, that we can bring people together not by pretending we all have the same issues, but by recognizing the unique histories and challenges that impact our lives.

When we are at our best, friend, is when we acknowledge that while everyones faces different obstacles, we all want the same thing: educational opportunity, economic security, and quality health care.

But without securing the right to vote, the policy initiatives we hold to be necessary may never come to fruition. And that is why I believe that voter suppression is the most foundational issue facing our democracy and why I am determined to do all I can to defeat it.

I need your help to do that, friend.

Will you make a donation to Fair Fight tonight so that we can restore the power of the vote and build a path to progress on the issues that govern our lives?

When I launched Fair Fight last November, I did so in part because my campaign was premised on being a voice for people who had not been seen or heard in the body politic.

My whole life has been a story of imagining more for myself than what others expected of me. Our work at Fair Fight is about expanding access to the ballot so that we can come together and demand better opportunities for ourselves and for our communities.

Yours in the fight,
Stacey
