Americans are facing unprecedented unemployment and food insecurity -- and Senate Republicans are only offering the hardest-hit individuals $600 in relief. It shouldn’t be like this, and it doesn’t have to be.
If we win in Georgia, Democrats will control a Senate that will prioritize frontline workers and struggling families. But we have to win in Georgia, first.
There is some good news and some bad news. Grassroots donations to the two Democratic campaigns for US Senate have been off the charts. But local groups doing deep organizing on the ground in Georgia need resources to turn out voters for Raphael Warnock and Jon Ossoff in this final stretch.
The Atlanta Journal Constitution reports “Young voters made up 20% of Georgia’s electorate last month -- among the highest in the country and 3 percentage points higher than the national average.”
Mitch McConnell and Senate Republicans have blocked real COVID relief for months. Americans need help -- more than just $600 -- and the only way that help is going to come from the U.S. Senate is if we elect Raphael Warnock and Jon Ossoff, flip the Senate blue, and boot Mitch McConnell from power.
This next week will determine what level of support our federal government will ultimately provide to communities that so desperately need it right now. And the polls continue to show both races neck-and-neck.
We’re stepping up to do everything we can to help Democrats take control of the Senate. As the New York Times reports, "The Progressive Change Campaign Committee has already raised $386,000 for the two Democratic candidates." That is now over $500,000.
Thanks for being a bold progressive.
