Sept. 9 at 5 PM PT / 8 PM ET. RSVP NOW >>
People For Member,
It's not too late to join our urgent member briefing on the recall
election in California ending just 5 days from now! (We'll be joined by
two American – and Californian – legends, Norman Lear and Dolores Huerta,
as well as panel of experts.)
[ [link removed] ]Please sign up and reserve your spot now and join us from anywhere!
We'll send you a reminder when the event is going to begin>>
Did you know that polling suggests California is dangerously close to
electing a far-right Republican governor?
Did you know that the lead Republican running to replace Governor Gavin
Newsom – Larry Elder, California's likely governor if the recall goes
through – is a radical right-wing, pro-Trump extremist who opposes the
minimum wage and opposes science-driven public health measures to get the
COVID-19 pandemic under control?
Did you know that as America's largest state (and the world's fifth
largest economy), California having progressive leadership drives
progressive policies nationwide in fighting climate change, making health
care accessible, and so many other areas ... and far-right leadership that
will take California backwards, especially on environmental policy, will
have a devastating impact on our country and our planet?
And did you know that if 88-year-old Senator Diane Feinstein becomes
unable to serve the rest of her term, the governor of California will
appoint her replacement – so a Republican governor of California could
determine which party controls the U.S. Senate and could reinstall Mitch
McConnell as Majority Leader??
The stakes are incredibly high and time is running out to sound the alarm
and get every progressive ballot in!
[ [link removed] ]Please join us at 8:00 PM ET / 5:00 PM PT for this important briefing
on the lay of the land and what you can do to have an impact – in
California or from anywhere in the country >>
Thanks for all you do.

Friend,
California leads the country on progressive reforms, from environmental
regulations designed to dampen the severity of climate change to
increasing access to the ballot box. But if the Far Right’s recall of
Democratic Governor Gavin Newsom is successful eleven days from now, all
of that progress would go right out the window.
The story of how we got here is complicated, so here at People For the
American Way we wanted to make sure our members have a chance to hear
directly from experts on the issue – and on why it’s so important each and
every one of us gets involved to get out the vote against the recall.
[ [link removed] ]Join me, Norman Lear, and Dolores Huerta for an exclusive virtual
member briefing at 5 PM PT / 8 PM ET on Thursday, September 9! >>
Right now, Gov. Newsom is polling within the margin of error against
radical right-wing radio host Larry Elder – and having Elder as governor
would be catastrophic for all the issues most important not only to
Californians, but also to progressives nationwide.
At the briefing, Norman, Dolores, and I will talk about how Gov. Newsom’s
policies align with our progressive goals, and how we cannot afford to let
the most progressive state in the country fall to a far-right candidate
like Elder. And most importantly, we’ll share what you can do, no matter
where you live, to make sure that California votes NO on the recall.
[ [link removed] ]Save your spot now for an exclusive briefing with me, Norman Lear, and
Dolores Huerta on why it’s crucial that we STOP the California recall! >>
Progressives need to go all-in to stop the radical right takeover of our
nation's largest state – please help us make sure that the right-wing’s
recall effort does not succeed.
[ [link removed] ]RSVP now >>
Thank you for working with us to help California fend off this latest
far-right outrage.
Ben Jealous, President
