Friend, unprecedented doesn't begin to cover it

People For the American Way

Friend: I’ve got to be honest with you. I’ve witnessed many things in my first 100 years of life, but this moment in American history is truly alarming.

We face many challenges to our democracy, human rights, and the true American Way, but together we can ensure truth and justice prevails. You can make a difference – AND double your impact – with a fully MATCHED gift of any size right now >>

A photo of past People For supporters gathered with signage and walking down a sidewalk. There is a red and blue border with white text that reads: We can make a difference, together! For over 40 years, the People For community has kept up the fight - join us now to protect voting rights, civil liberties and the rule of law. There is a button that says Make My Gift.

When I co-founded People For the American Way with Barbara Jordan in 1981, I knew it was necessary to continue building on hard-won progress made possible by people just like you, Friend. People who see America as an ideal to strive for, a place continuing to grow and change, while welcoming people from all walks of life to contribute to making this country a better place for all of us.

We can’t let extremists threatened by our victories succeed in making the country less free and less fair – that’s why we’re asking you to join us in this crucial moment by making a gift before our fiscal year ends.

We’ve set a $250,000 goal, and we’re getting closer! Plus, generous People For the American Way donors have offered a $50,000 matching challenge, meaning your gift will be doubled to increase your impact in the fight for protecting our democracy.

I know we can defeat the violent and backwards thinking of extremists trying to undo hard-won progressive victories and undermine our democracy. With Roe v. Wade overturned, marriage equality threatened, and efforts to interfere with our elections erupting all over the country, I can’t overstate the importance of your action right now.

Donate now and your gift will be DOUBLED: don’t wait >>

Thank you, Friend, for your action and support. We’re in this together, and I’m so glad to have you on our team.

Your friend,

Norman Lear

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.

Please help fund the fight for progress and stand against right-wing extremism with an urgently needed donation to People For today>>
