[ [link removed] ]Welch for Vermont

Hello,

The news coming out of yesterday’s January 6th hearing is
devastating—which is
further proof that this is an All Hands On Deck moment to protect our
democracy.

It’s been easy to take democracy for granted in America, but as the
January 6th Commission continues to reveal their findings, it’s more clear
than ever: our fragile democracy is at a tipping point, and we must all
work to protect it.

Yesterday, we learned more about how Trump and his inner circle worked
with extremist groups in the leadup to January 6th and how they planned to
overturn a free and fair election. The evidence is damning. But too many Republicans are still trying
to pretend January 6th didn’t happen.

[ [link removed] ]Add your name if you agree: We must protect and defend the right to
vote and the peaceful transfer of power. Our future depends on us working
together to protect and strengthen our democracy.

Yesterday’s hearings revealed that Trump and his advisors considered
seizing state voting machines. He has created a party that is intent on
eroding democracy by restricting voting rights and casting doubt on
election results. Trump-aligned statehouses are now making it harder to
vote in the midterm elections, gerrymandering congressional districts to
further marginalize voters of color, and taking away the independent role
of state authorities to certify election results in order to subvert free
and fair elections in the future.

Our country depends on a functioning democracy—we need All Hands On Deck
to protect it.

When we head to the polls in November, democracy will be on the ballot.
It’s up to us to come together to ensure it doesn’t lose. [ [link removed] ]If you agree
that protecting our democracy is one of the most important issues we face
in this election, I’d appreciate it if you signed your name alongside
other grassroots supporters.

Thanks for fighting alongside me.

Peter
