John,
It’s a day that ends in Y, so you can bet one of the Republican candidates
for this Senate seat has done or said something terrible again.
Mike Gibbons, a self-funding financier who’s now one of the leading
contenders for the Republican nomination to represent Ohio in the Senate,
employed a litany of offensive stereotypes about Asian people in a podcast
interview that just resurfaced.
Over and over in this interview, Gibbons cited a widely discredited book
to make offensive comments about Chinese people and other Asian people,
attributing any success among Asian people to racial tropes that have long
been trademarks of anti-Asian racism.
[ [link removed] ]We cannot allow someone with such ignorant and racist views to
represent our state in the Senate. Can you rush a contribution to our
campaign to help us fight back against this kind of hate?

John, I can’t
believe I have to say it, but being a racist multi-millionaire doesn’t
qualify you to represent people in the U.S. Senate.
We need a Senator who cares about our communities and EVERYONE within
them. We need a Senator who’ll fight for working people, especially right
now when we need it most. And most of all we need a Senator who won’t try
to divide us based on what we look like, where we come from, or how much
money we have.
[ [link removed] ]Our diversity – and having the power of the people on our side – is
what makes us stronger. Can you chip in today to our grassroots campaign?
Now more than ever, I proudly stand with our Asian-American friends,
family, and neighbors and I hope Mike Gibbons apologizes for his hateful
and offensive comments – it’s the least he can do.
Thank you,
Morgan
