John, In the Senate, arcane rules like the filibuster allow special interests and billionaires to prevent votes on popular bills that challenge their power. As I type this note, the filibuster is blocking critical legislation to secure the right to vote and challenge the power of big money in our lawmaking process.
With the midterm elections just around the corner, we need the Senate to act now to reform the filibuster. That’s why I’m proud to be leading Our Revolution’s grassroots organizing work to pressure corporate Democrats and elect real progressives in 2022 by empowering our hundreds of active groups across America.
Securing voting rights is essential to stopping a Republican takeover in November, and we need to act now.
John, we are in an existential fight to save democracy, and Our Revolution is doing the critical grassroots work we need to win a better future for working people. Become a sustaining member to help fund Our Revolution’s critical work:

The many crises we face are too big to allow Senate rules to stand in the way of action.
I don’t want to have to look future generations in the eye and say we did nothing as our planet and our democracy withered away.
That’s why Our Revolution’s work to build a movement to change Senate rules now is so important. The current rules stand in the way of the future we deserve: one where every American is treated with dignity and has a meaningful voice in government that’s not drowned out by special interests.
Please consider contributing monthly to Our Revolution now to help fund their critical organizing work to save our democracy and win a progressive future! In solidarity,
Mike
