John xxxxxx -- did you see this email from Hakeem yesterday?
House Republicans voted to strip Rep. Liz Cheney from her leadership position -- all because she refused to go along with the Big Lie that the election was somehow stolen from Donald Trump.
Yesterday’s vote makes it clear. The Republican Party is now the party of conspiracy theorists and voter suppression, and fealty to Donald Trump is the only requirement.
Read more from Hakeem below, and pitch in to help stop these Republican extremists from taking power again:

----- Original Message from Hakeem Jeffries, May 12, 2021 -----
This is some big news, John xxxxxx:
House Republicans just voted to remove Rep. Liz Cheney from her leadership post as Conference Chair.
Why is this happening? Because Rep. Cheney is one of the very few Republicans who has refused to go along with the “Big Lie” that the 2020 election was stolen from Donald Trump. She’s one of the few Republicans who has correctly laid the blame for the January 6th insurrection at Trump’s feet.
But everyone from Republican Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy to Donald Trump himself has made it clear: that won’t fly in today’s Republican Party.
Instead, the GOP is now the party of insurrectionists, voter suppression, and conspiracy theorists like Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene. Today’s vote confirms it.
We cannot allow this extremist party to return to power. We need to be ready to fight with everything we’ve got to hold the line and protect our Democratic majority.
In light of today’s vote, will you rush a contribution to stop extremist Republicans from returning to power in 2022? We need to show that the American people stand for truth and democracy:

Millions of Americans like you organized, donated, and voted to kick Donald Trump out of office and send Democratic majorities to Washington in the last election. Because of your support, we’re getting to work delivering for the American people.
But our majorities are slim.
We can’t run the risk of allowing Trump-aligned extremists like McCarthy and Greene to take power.
That’s why your grassroots contributions are so critical right now.
Make a donation today to help my Democratic colleagues and I keep extremists out of power:
