This is serious — State Senate Republicans just introduced 39 bills aimed at suppressing the vote. Just take a look at what some of the do:

One bill would require photo ID to vote absentee, decreasing voter participation. We know people of color, poor people, and elderly people would be most affected.

Another would prohibit mailing absentee ballot applications out to voters who might want to use them. Yet another would prohibit pre-paid postage stamps for absentee ballots.

This is just a snapshot of the Michigan GOP's voter suppression campaign -- and it's why I am asking for your help before our critical FEC deadline. If you can, please consider rushing a $10 donation now so that our party has the resources it needs to run our year-round voter protection program.

Instead of working with Governor Gretchen Whitmer to allocate billions of dollars in federal funding, Republicans are trying to better their chances at the ballot box by disenfranchising voters.

Remember, friend: Your vote is your voice, and your voice is powerful. If it wasn't, politicians wouldn't be trying to take it away. Your voice is what turned Michigan blue, sent Gary Peters back to the Senate, which allowed Democrats to deliver the American Rescue Plan.

That's something to be very proud of -- because it wouldn't have happened without the record-breaking turnout we saw in 2020. Can I count on you to donate $10 before our FEC deadline so that our party is prepared to combat Republican voter suppression efforts and continue electing Democrats all across the state?

I will never stop fighting to protect our democracy and our right to vote. Thanks for standing by me on this.
