John,
I know you’re probably hearing from a lot of worthy causes today, but I hope CREW can make it on your list to support. All donations, up to $25,000 total, are being matched through midnight, meaning your gift will go twice as far in supporting our anti-corruption work.
Fighting for an accountable, ethical government has never been more important. Donald Trump may no longer be the president, but we’re still fighting for accountability for the insurrection and his many abuses of power. And, of course, we’re still countering his lies about the election, working for reforms to ensure voting rights aren’t eroded and ethics loopholes are closed, and acting to ensure no future president can abuse their power like Trump did.
But I’ll be honest—people aren’t as focused on ethics as they were when Trump’s grifting and attacks on democracy were on display daily. Here at CREW, we’re as laser-focused as we ever were, and we know that supporters like you still care deeply about fighting for ethics, transparency and a strong democracy.
If you want to help us keep up this work, even when the spotlight is off, I hope you’ll consider making a matched contribution today. It will make an enormous difference.
Thank you,
Donald Sherman
Vice President and Chief Counsel, CREW

John,
It’s Giving Tuesday, which means one thing: we have until midnight tonight to reach our $25,000 match goal. If that’s all you need to know, you can click here to make a matched donation.
If you need a few reasons why, we’ve got them:
-
CREW’s fight for accountability and answers for the January 6 insurrection hasn’t stopped—even nearly a year later. We continue to obtain new documents from federal agencies, track corporate contributions to the Sedition Caucus and build public pressure for a thorough investigation.
-
We’re not just focused on the insurrection, either. We’re still fighting for accountability for all the Trump administration’s abuses—like Freedom of Information Act investigations into Mike Pompeo’s Madison Dinners, Steven Mnuchin’s use of taxpayer-funded travel to set up his post-administration investment fund, and the law enforcement response to racial justice protests in 2020.
-
We’re also hard at work advancing democracy and ethics reform in Congress. We’re pressing for action on the Freedom to Vote Act, helping shape legislation on judicial ethics and building support for campaign finance reform.
If you want to make sure all that work can continue, then I hope you’ll consider making a matched donation today. We only have until midnight tonight to reach our $25,000 matching goal, which will help set us up for success for months to come.
If you can’t donate today, you can still help us reach our goal! You can forward this email to friends who might be looking for some worthy causes to donate to today, or you can share our fundraiser on Facebook.
No matter what, supporters like you are key to our fight for ethics, transparency, and a strong democracy.
Thank you,
Noah Bookbinder
President, CREW
