[ [link removed] ]Flip the Senate in 2020!
   PFAW Member,
   We are in a pivotal moment for the future of our country.
   Since Speaker Pelosi’s announcement of a formal impeachment inquiry last
   week, in response to a whistleblower complaint detailing egregious
   lawbreaking by Trump to enlist foreign help with his 2020 re-election
   effort, public opinion has swung HARD in favor of impeachment with a new
   poll showing that 55% of Americans now believe the impeachment probe is
   necessary.
   But, so far, instead of showing signs that they are finally ready to put
   country before party, Trump Republicans are digging in their heels for an
   epic fight. In fact, the Trump campaign and the GOP reported raising $13
   MILLION in just the first 48 hours following the announcement.
   We’re fighting back to protect the impeachment inquiry and make sure Trump
   AND his GOP enablers are held accountable, but on the day of our first
   funding deadline for this historic fight, we’re way behind our goal.
   At the time I write this, we have 14 hours to raise nearly $15K! And you
   know as well as anyone that at this crucial beginning phase of Trump’s
   impeachment, falling short simply cannot be an option.
   [ [link removed] ]Will you chip in as generously as you can today to make sure we hit the
   roughly $1,000 per hour we need to raise by the end of the day to HOLD
   TRUMP AND RIGHT-WING REPUBLICANS ACCOUNTABLE?>>
   The American public now supports the impeachment process but that’s
   boosted in large part by overwhelming support from Democrats. It’s a great
   start, but we need to be able to bring effective pressure on Republican
   lawmakers in both the House and the Senate and, because some districts and
   states are inherently more conservative, we need to win over a substantial
   number of Republican and Independent voters too.
   Right now, Independents are evenly split on impeachment with 49% approving
   and 51% disapproving. And 77% of Republicans currently disapprove of
   impeachment -- and you know that they are being flooded with conspiracy
   theories and propaganda from Fox News and right-wing groups.
   Congress just began a two-week recess, giving us an amazing opportunity to
   take the fight to Republican members of Congress in their states and
   districts – but we need your help to make sure we don’t fall short of our
   goal.
   I wouldn’t make this plea if it weren’t so incredibly important: [ [link removed] ]Will
   you PLEASE dig deep and give whatever you can to support the impeachment
   effort and bring intense pressure on GOP lawmakers?
   PFAW is playing a unique and necessary role in this impeachment fight and
   our members’ support is absolutely central to that.
     * PFAW has legal and communications expertise that will be vital to
       shaping the media narrative, dispelling the Right’s lies and diversion
       tactics, and helping activists understand the process. Our experts
       have already been quoted and interviewed by dozens of the country’s
       leading news publications and shows.
     * Thanks to our hundreds of thousands of members like you, we will help
       lead the nationwide groundswell of grassroots pressure that’s going to
       be necessary for this fight – impeachment requires a movement!
     * PFAW has unique reach into key constituencies via our programs like
       African American Ministers In Action and Young People For Action. Our
       network members are FIRED UP and need the material support to engage
       their communities in this nationwide campaign.
     * And PFAW's Right Wing Watch is uncovering the strategies and tactics
       that right-wing activists are using to defend the president, and
       exposing the fallacious conspiracy theories that Republicans are
       relying on to distract the public from Trump's wrongdoing AND that are
       driving this administration's agenda in the first place! PFAW's own
       Jared Holt, from our RWW team, wrote an amazing guest piece for the
       Washington Post, published Thursday, titled, "How far-right conspiracy
       theories informed Trump's Ukraine call."
   If you care about holding Trump and his lapdogs accountable…
   If you care about saving our democracy and defending our Constitution...
   THE FIGHT IS HERE.
   And this message is staring you in the face asking you to let us know,
   without delay, that you are in this fight with us and want to see it
   succeed.
   [ [link removed] ]Please chip in whatever you can right away to protect the impeachment
   investigation and hold Trump and his Republicans accountable to the law
   and to the ideals for which America needs to stand>>
   Thank you for standing up to restore the American Way and for everything
   you do.
