PFAW Member,

Following the 2017 Virginia elections -- in which PFAW helped secure
historic progressive victories, majority control of the House of Delegates
came down to a single TIED race which the Republican won by having his
name randomly chosen from a bowl!

What an amazing illustration of the principle that every vote counts!

This year we have districts that are slightly less gerrymandered in the
GOP's favor ... we have 40 amazing PFAW-endorsed candidates statewide for
state and local office ... and we have a fired up national membership
(that's you!) who knows how important these elections in Virginia are, not
only to progress in this key swing state, but to nationwide progressive
victories in 2020 and beyond.

Election Day is just ONE WEEK from today and we're pulling out all the
stops to FLIP the Virginia legislature from red to blue, because of all
that will mean.

We're on the air, on the ground, and on the phones reaching out to
thousands and thousands of Virginia voters in the closest, most
consequential races but we need you with us if we're going to get across
the finish line next week with the game-changing progressive victory we
need!



[ [link removed] ]Please rush a donation of $7 or more right away to invest in the most
important progressive victory of 2019 and we'll put it to use IMMEDIATELY
to flip Virginia Blue!>>

You can tell from all the right-wing money and help from national GOP
leaders pouring into the state that Republicans get what's at stake in
Virginia...

[ [link removed] ]Racist attack against Kelly Fowler

Well, we get it too! That's why in addition to radio and digital ads aimed
at turning out the Latino vote, we're directly supporting 40 candidates,
we're hosting phone banks, turning volunteers out to canvasses, exposing
racist right-wing smears against progressive candidates, and even bringing
in national progressive leaders and celebrities to help generate attention
for our candidates in some of the tightest races.

(For example, PFAW grabbed dozens of headlines in major area news outlets
last week when we brought in Alec Baldwin to knock on doors with some of
our endorsed candidates and help fire up their volunteers.)

We're fighting to reclaim progressive power in the states, win vital
Democratic control over the redistricting process, and nurture a crop of
progressive officeholders well positioned to win in their districts,
statewide, and in future pursuits of federal office.

And it's ALL on the line in Virginia this year...

Democratic majorities in Virginia will mean stopping Republican
gerrymandering (including of congressional seats) for the next decade....

It will mean the difference between Virginians having health care
coverage, common-sense gun reform, a living wage, more investment in
education, equality for LGBTQ people, and access to abortion care...

It will mean we'll have the chance to make Virginia the 38th state to
ratify the Equal Rights Amendment and we could finally win the long fought
battle to get it into the Constitution...

And it will mean absolutely VITAL momentum for progressives as we head
into the 2020 elections.

[ [link removed] ]Stand up for the American Way by helping to make victory in Virginia a
reality! We have just one week to go and a lot of voters to turn out to
the polls, so please give what you can now>>

Thank you for everything you do!
