John,
For over 40 years, Republican extremists have chiseled away at our
democracy via their Southern Strategy, seizing power over numerous states
in the process. Yet, Democrats have never really devised a similarly
comprehensive strategy that matches this effort.
That’s why we created our Flip the South program, a strategy that uses
proven grassroots organizing tactics and innovative applications of data
science based on our success flipping Virginia in 2019 and two U.S. Senate
seats in Georgia in 2020.
Now, with trigger laws – a ban on abortion that takes effect with the
overturning of Roe v. Wade – in place throughout the south, this work is
more important than ever.
Given the enormous electoral power of the South and the millions of people
whose rights are on the line, the long-term positive impact of flipping
even just one southern state is incalculable.

and we know that with the resources to do it, our dream will become a
reality. Will you contribute today to help us build up our organizing
infrastructure in the South?

Here’s the thing many people in the establishment don’t want you to
believe… we can Flip the South!
In fact, the south has only been a Republican stronghold for so long
because candidates and organizations typically don’t talk to the voters
who reliably turn out for Democrats. I’m talking about the New American
Majority of Black and brown voters.
These states could flip tomorrow if we could just organize and activate
those voters. And that's the problem. Few large national organizations are
doing it. But we are and, with your help, we can take it to the next
level.
We must build up our organizing efforts in the South. If money were no
object, we would have staffers on the ground today, registering voters and
knocking on doors in every state, talking about how Republicans are
stripping away the right to choose and making it tougher for them to vote.
Now it’s time to get creative and ramp up our efforts. It’s time to throw
out the old playbook and imagine what could be if we thought outside the
box and focused our energy in the right places.

and 5 people to donate $500 to reach our goal and fund this important
grassroots power-building work. Please donate at whatever level you can
afford today and let's work together to make history.

Thank you so much for your continued support of DFA's work. Keep believing
and dreaming. Together we can lead America forward to a better future for
all.
