John, we have
good news and bad news today.
In a minute, we'll explain more. But first, we have to ask: [ [link removed] ]Can you
donate $5 or more to help power Cori's work in Congress? Our
mid-month deadline is tomorrow at midnight and we've set a goal to raise
$8,000.
Let's start with the good: At the beginning of the month, Cori and our
progressive movement achieved a huge victory, saved thousands of lives,
and protected millions of families who were at risk of being evicted in
the middle of this pandemic.
After Cori stayed outside of the Capitol for five days protesting the end
of the eviction moratorium, the Biden administration announced they would
issue a temporary eviction freeze. This was directly a result of Cori's
leadership and the perfect example of why it's so important we elect
activists to Congress.

Now, the bad news: Attacks from the far-right and white supremacists have
skyrocketed since Cori first sat down outside the Capitol with her
sleeping bag.

To be frank, we've seen a large uptick in hateful, racist, and threatening
mail sent to our office and Cori online lately. These attacks may seem
ridiculous, but John, let's be
clear: Attacks like these from Fox News and the far-right are dangerous.
Fox News profits off of misinformation, conspiracy theories,
fear-mongering, and racism. So when people like Tucker Carlson attack Cori
on live TV, they directly help cause a rise in the number of threats Cori
receives.
John, Cori needs our support
more than ever to overcome this wave of attacks and prove our momentum
isn't going anywhere. That's why our team has set a rapid-response goal to
raise $8,000 by tomorrow at midnight to make sure Cori has the resources
to fend off GOP attacks and keep pushing for the transformative change our
communities need.
[ [link removed] ]Please, will you make a $5 donation right now to respond
to right-wing attacks and help re-elect Cori so she can continue boldly
leading legislation like the Green New Deal for Cities, the People's
Response Act, and the Unhoused Bill of Rights?
Together,
Team Cori
