Dear MoveOn member,
In May, Republican Congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene sparked outrage when she compared mask mandates to the murder of 6 million Jews by Nazi Germany.1
Now, she's at it again, comparing public health officials promoting the COVID-19 vaccine to Hitler's "brownshirts."2
There's no place in Congress for Rep. Greene's racism or antisemitism, and her anti-vaccine conspiracy theories are even more deadly with the Delta variant of the coronavirus threatening to spread like wildfire in communities with low vaccination rates.
In fact, Rep. Greene's own district has among the lowest vaccination rates in the country, with less than 10% of people fully vaccinated in some counties—and as long as the virus is allowed to spread out of control in some parts of the country, none of us are truly protected.3
We've put extremist politicians like Marjorie Taylor Greene in our very top tier of priority targets to defeat for re-election in 2022, but donations to MoveOn and other progressive groups have declined since Donald Trump left office. That's why we're asking you to chip in and help get Marjorie Taylor Greene and her racist, insurrectionist colleagues out of Congress once and for all. Will you donate $3 to defeat the GOP?
When Marjorie Taylor Greene compared mask mandates to Nazism in May, she was pressured to apologize. But she's still at it, proving once again that she's utterly unfit to sit in Congress. Here's just a partial list of her worst racist, antisemitic, Islamophobic, and anti-vaccine offenses:
In order to defeat Greene and GOP extremists like her, MoveOn is preparing to flood the airwaves and social media with ads, putting up billboards in key states and districts, and planning a massive grassroots get-out-the-vote campaign for the midterm elections.
But we know the billionaires will step up to defend the right wing.
Thanks for all you do.
