Friend,

The turnout for the high-stakes Governor’s race in Pennsylvania will likely have a domino effect on other races there. That’s why we need to make sure current Attorney General Josh Shapiro prevails over State Sen. Doug Mastriano to become Governor of the Keystone State this November.

Trump-backed Mastriano is one of the leading voices alleging election fraud in 2020 and helped organize bus trips to the Capitol on Jan. 6. He continues to fan the flames of division and is so extreme that a group of Pennsylvania Republicans has come out against him. Former GOP Rep. Charlie Dent goes so far as to call Mastriano “a threat to the rule of law and the constitutional order.”

Why is Pennsylvania important to all of us? It’s nearly impossible for a Presidential candidate to prevail in 2024 without winning in Pennsylvania. Adding to the stakes is that if Democrats lose House seats here, Republicans will gain a majority in the state's Congressional delegation. Such an outcome would deliver Pennsylvania to a Republican candidate should a Presidential election be thrown to the House.

If you’re in Pennsylvania, or even just nearby, check out PADems to find out how to best put your skills to work. Tell them you’re there to do everything in your power to protect the Commonwealth. They'll train you up and make sure you're ready to roll.
As a volunteer with The Union, you’ll receive an action email each week. Whether you live inside or outside the area for a particular race, there will always be actions for both situations.

We have 120 days until the midterm elections. Zero time for hesitation. We are mobilizing our pro-democracy coalition across all 50 States. It will take all of us to ensure we have a democracy for ourselves and future generations of Americans. 

Please reach out to one friend today, ask them to stand together with us, and get them to join The Union.

Together,

The Union
