The grave importance of the work to protect our democracy
Friend –
It can be hard to keep your head on straight given all the ways MAGA extremists are trying to topple our democracy:
- Tampering with voting machines, caught on video in Georgia
- Celebrity “politicians” like Mehmet Oz and Herschel Walker making decisions about healthcare, education, and human rights at the federal level
- Never-ending denials that President Joe Biden won the 2020 election
- Excusing the violence of insurrectionists on January 6, 2021
- Senator Lindsey Graham introducing a bill to attempt a federal-level abortion ban
As these attacks on our democracy and outright lies pour out of the Far Right across the country, we have to keep up the fight to mobilize and energize voters and to protect the right to vote and have that vote counted … and we need to out-organize the subverters of democracy and win as many midterm races as possible.
We’re seeing right now in the Georgia governor’s race and the other key races around the country that, with the right kind of voter engagement, it can be done.
Pitch in whatever you can right now to support the numerous battles ahead >>
As we approach the end of People For the American Way’s fiscal year, I have to be honest that we are behind where we need to be in order to fight at full strength.
Help People For reach our $250,000 goal by September 30 – you can protect democracy and uphold the rule of law, please pitch in now >>
From Washington State to Florida, there are election deniers on more than half of American ballots. Every single election is crucial, from local city councils to members of congress, and we need Democrats to maintain and gain seats.
With your help, we can put a stop to the destruction of our hard-won progress by MAGA extremists. Make your gift >>
Thank you in advance for joining this fight!

Radical Right extremists are trying to turn back the clock on a century of advances in civil rights, women’s rights, workers’ rights, the social safety net and more… they’re waging an all-out assault on the fundamental pillars of our country – democracy, checks and balances, a fair and independent judicial branch, and core values like fairness, equality, and justice for all.
People For is fighting back every day with:
✔ Grassroots organizing
✔ Lobbying and advocacy
✔ Research and education
✔ Voter mobilization
✔ And more…
But we can’t do this vital work without the robust grassroots financial support of our members and activists.
