A new message from your friends at People For the American Way.

People For Member,

After a long, dark night, the dawn is finally here – if we fight for it
and protect it.

ON THE SAME DAY that Trump prepares to follow his pardons of cronies like
Michael Flynn, Roger Stone, and Paul Manafort with roughly 100 more
pardons or sentence commutations … that right-wing members of Congress
scramble to rewrite the history of their incitement of insurrection …
that, according to the FBI, the white supremacists and other extremists
they incited plan violent attacks on our institutions of government…

* Democrats in the Senate announce their top legislative priority,
appropriately designated as Senate bill number S.1, will be the For
the People Act – a sweeping package of democracy-strengthening reforms
to protect voting rights, fight corruption, and drastically reduce the
influence of Big Money in elections. It’s also House Democrats’ top
priority with the House version of the bill already introduced as HR
1.

* America readies for the swearing in of Kamala Harris as our first
woman vice president, our first Black vice president, and our first
Asian-American vice president.

* President-elect Biden – who has already announced historic actions
he’ll take to restore fairness and equality, such as ENDING Trump’s
bigoted Muslim Ban, on Day One of his presidency – announces the
nomination of Rachel Levine for assistant health secretary, opening
the door for the first openly transgender official to be confirmed by
the U.S. Senate.

These are just some examples of how, despite the division, lies, and
violence carefully nurtured and unleashed by the Far Right, America is
already looking a lot more like the America we want and need.  

But the success of the vision being laid out by our movement and by this
new administration and new Congress will depend on our ability to punch
through and expose right-wing lies, and rally grassroots support for a
progressive policy agenda.

That’s why generous donors are TRIPLE MATCHING all online donations
through Inauguration Week, up to $75,000, until Friday at midnight –
including all recurring monthly sustaining gifts for an entire year!

So here’s where you come in:

[ [link removed] ]Become a Defender of Democracy sustaining member of People For today
with a monthly pledge (3X-MATCHED for an entire year)>>

OR

[ [link removed] ]Make a one-time 3X-MATCHED donation of any amount to renew for 2021 and
power our work to stop hate and defend democracy>>

It’s a scary time. Historic transitions often are. But America is on the
verge of greatness and an era of progress like we’ve never seen IF we can
be its stewards, and match our opponents’ rage with righteous energy and
passion for a country that truly reflects the values of liberty,
opportunity, democracy, and justice for ALL – the American Way.

Thank you for all you do.

– Ben Betz, Digital & Organizing
