Donations today 3X-MATCHED to win Battleground Virginia!
[ [link removed] ]We need your help to stop the far-right takeover of battleground Virginia!
Dear People For Supporter,
The stakes in Virginia -- and indeed, nationwide -- just could not be any
higher in Tuesday’s election. If far-right candidate Glenn Youngkin
succeeds in seizing control of Virginia’s governorship, the ripple effects
will be felt across the nation – all the way through next year’s crucial
midterms.
People For members are stepping up big time and we're getting closer to
our campaign goal, but we still have $13,153 to go and time is VERY short!
[ [link removed] ]None of our GOTV work can happen without your support, so please give
anything you can right now to have your donation 3X-MATCHED and your
impact tripled>>
We're going all-out on this election
because SO MUCH is at stake -- not just for Virginia but for the country
as a whole.
Just in Virginia, we've seen enough to know that a Youngkin administration
would:
* Oppose a woman’s right to choose and fight to pass onerous,
Texas-style restrictions on abortion
* Attempt to overturn marriage equality (even though it’s settled law)
* Oppose mask and vaccine mandates, and take the state backwards in the
struggle against COVID-19
* Ban books in Virginia public schools, including Pulitzer prize-winning
works by black authors like Toni Morrison
* Impose new voter suppression laws designed to depress turnout from
voters of color and cement Republican rule in Virginia for as long as
possible.
But the stakes of this race are truly nationwide, as well, and that’s why
we’re urgently asking for your support.
* This election will also set the national tone for ALL of the 2022
Congressional elections coming up next fall -- and could swing enough
races to deliver the U.S. House to Republicans and put a full stop on
ANY progressive legislation for the following two years.
* Even our fight against the outdated and racist electoral college is at
stake here; with a far-right extremist like Youngkin in the governor’s
mansion, there’s ZERO chance that Virginia adopts the National Popular
Vote Compact so we can elect our presidents by simple majority vote.
All donations before midnight tonight 3X-MATCHED!
[ [link removed] ]So, we’re asking:
please chip in anything you can right now to win in Virginia! Give now and
your support will be TRIPLED >>
The polls all show an extremely tight race right now. I think we can win
this thing – otherwise we wouldn’t be writing you today. But it's going to
take everyone pitching in as much as we can, so I hope you can help out
today.
Thanks for all you do,
— Ben Jealous, President
