Hi friend,
“We are at war fighting to protect our democracy from domestic enemies at this moment,” said Stacey Abrams on CNN.
Stacey Abrams' statement isn't hyperbole. We're actively fighting to protect our democracy from the GOP, which has introduced over 250 state-level bills this year alone that are specifically designed to restrict voters' access to the ballot box.
The GOP's relentless attacks against voters -- especially voters of color -- are why Democrats in Congress introduced the John R. Lewis Voting Rights Act to restore the Voting Rights Act of 1965. Both this bill and the For the People Act show that, unlike Republicans, the Democratic Party is truly dedicated to democracy.
With the leadership of women like Stacey Abrams, we were able to prevail over the GOP's voter suppression tactics in Georgia and across the country. We can absolutely do it again if supporters like you commit the same energy you had in November and January to this next round in the fight for voting rights.
We're $1,989 behind today's fundraising goal, and we really need you to make sure we don't fall further behind. If we don't amass enough resources to stop the GOP's barrage of voter suppression bills, voters of color will be even further disenfranchised -- giving the GOP a clear shot at enacting every part of their racist agenda when they win back control of the House and Senate in 2022.
