John,
At CREW, we’re in this fight for the long haul.
That’s because the work of protecting and strengthening our democracy is never done—especially not when it’s in peril, like right now. And the only way we can stay in this fight is because of supporters like you.
I hope you’ll take a look at Noah’s email below, and all the work we’ve been up to recently—Congressional testimony, legal actions, groundbreaking investigations—and then consider making a matched donation to support that critical work.
Grassroots supporters are key to our success—if you’re able, please make a matched donation now.
Thank you,
Donald Sherman
Vice President and Chief Counsel, CREW

John,
The strength of our democracy depends on all of us.
I know that it often feels like an uphill battle. From a Supreme Court making anti-democratic decisions, justices whose confirmations were backed by millions in secret money, and no code of conduct that justices must follow; to a former president who came perilously close to successfully inciting his supporters to overthrow our democracy; to a Congress that has so far failed to pass desperately needed comprehensive, democracy and voting rights protections—our democracy is in crisis.
But fighting back matters, and it makes a difference.
At CREW, we’re fighting back every single day.
We’re taking legal action to seek accountability for the January 6 insurrection, testifying before Congress on judicial ethics reform and on banning Congressional stock trading, uncovering new details about the failures of law enforcement ahead of the insurrection, and tracking Donald Trump’s dozens of likely crimes.
But we don’t do it alone. We couldn’t do any of this work without supporters like you. Supporters who donate, call your members of Congress, tell your friends, rally, and vote.
This month, a generous supporter is matching up to $75,000 in donations to CREW—because they know how critical our work to shore up democracy is. If you’re able, I hope you’ll consider making a matched donation today. A donation of any amount will make a difference in the fight for a stronger democracy.
We’re closer than ever before to a ban on Congressional stock ownership—thanks in part to the thousands of you who have kept the pressure on your members of Congress—and we’re going to keep pushing until it’s law. We’ve exposed the companies funding the Sedition Caucus—and highlighted the ones who have kept their promises. We’ve learned new information about Trump’s actions on January 6th that make it even more clear that he likely committed criminal sedition—which we filed a complaint about just 5 days after the insurrection.
Please consider donating to support this essential work today. All donations will be matched, going twice as far to power our legal, research, policy and investigative work.
Our democracy is not guaranteed—we’ve seen that so clearly over the last 6 years. But all of us have the power to help fight back against the forces of autocracy and corruption. The promise of democracy depends on all of us working together. On this Fourth of July, we’re so grateful to have you in the fight with us.
Thank you,
Noah Bookbinder
President, CREW
