Hey folks,

The midterm election coming up is too important to sit out. That's why I'm writing on behalf of my friends at the Democratic Legislative Campaign Committee fighting for critical state legislatures across the country. Can you help support this crucial work?

I got my start in politics as a community organizer in Chicago, and went on to serve as a state senator in Illinois for eight years. I know firsthand how important state legislatures are and the impact they have on our democracy. In many ways, the folks who represent you at the state and local level have more of an impact on your life than the ones you send to Washington.

But while Democratic legislators are working every day to promote opportunity, equity, and justice for all, Republicans are using their state legislative majorities to gut the Affordable Care Act, deny abortion access to millions of women, and suppress the vote.

This Election Day, hundreds of competitive state legislative seats are up for grabs – and it will take all of us coming together to make sure Democratic state legislators can keep this country moving forward.

The DLCC is the official Democratic Party committee dedicated to electing state Democrats across the nation. Please join me in supporting their vital work by chipping in today. There is no better time to join this fight >>

Across the country, Democratic lawmakers are making real progress.

In the 17 states where they hold majorities, state Democrats have set up state-level protections for abortion access. In those same states, they've put in place common-sense gun reforms and expanded access to the ballot box. That's why I'm proud to announce my support for the DLCC ahead of November's election.

The best thing we can do this fall is to build Democratic power in statehouses across the country. But that will only happen if every Democrat reading this email gets off the sidelines. We need voters, grassroots volunteers, and you in this fight.

With just 76 days until the midterm elections, we have a lot of ground to cover. Will you stand with me today and chip in $7 to help elect Democratic state legislators across the country?

Together,
Barack Obama
