Dear MoveOn member,
Reverend Raphael Warnock, Democratic U.S. senator from Georgia, is once again facing the electoral battle of his life. After coming up ahead on Tuesday night, but just short of 50%, Warnock is now facing a head-to-head runoff.
When we think of Rev. Warnock, we think of dignity, compassion, and a voice for the voiceless. A child who grew up in public housing with his 11 siblings to become a pastor who carries the torch of the 150-year fight for civil rights as a leader of the Ebenezer Baptist Church in Atlanta.
We think of a man who brought all that love, fight, and commitment into the U.S. Senate in 2021 and how much better that has made our country.
But in less than 30 days, on December 6, we could lose that voice.
And, almost incomprehensibly, we could lose that voice to the MAGA Republican Herschel Walker, a sleazy businessman and abuser of women who wants to strip away the right to abortion, without exception—except in his own life.
We will do all we can on the ground to help Senator Warnock win, but we are asking you today to rush a donation directly to his campaign, so he has the early resources to hit the ground running.
Will you rush a $3 donation directly to Sen. Warnock's campaign today? One hundred percent of your donation will go directly to him to help him defeat Herschel Walker and prevent Mitch McConnell from securing an additional GOP vote.
For the next 26 days, we plan to do everything we can to make sure that Herschel Walker never sets foot in Congress.
Walker is the worst of the Republican Party. Unethical. Violent. Hypocritical. Dangerous for democracy.
He has been exposed for his unethical business practices.1 For committing multiple horrific acts of domestic violence.2 And now, with two different women, for benefiting from the very same access to safe, legal abortion that he wants to strip away from every single woman and preganant person in the United States.3
And yet, this man is inches away from winning a seat in the United States Senate.
Will you make a $3 contribution today to stop Herschel Walker from setting foot in the U.S. Senate and to make sure that Mitch McConnell does not get an additional GOP vote to block Joe Biden's agenda?
We know the GOP will stand with Walker no matter what, because power is all that matters to them.
That's because Republicans are all focused on one thing, and one thing only: gaining votes in the U.S. Senate so the GOP can take away a pregnant person's bodily autonomy, strip the LGBTQ+ community of basic human rights, suppress voters, and install Trump in the White House in 2024.
That's why we are asking you today to make an emergency donation to Rev. Warnock's campaign. We feel so strongly about the importance of winning Georgia that today we are asking you to give directly to Rev. Warnock, with none of your contribution coming to us.
Please chip in $3 or whatever you can afford today. As we said, 100% of your gift will go directly to his campaign, and we know how grateful he will be. Indeed, how grateful all of us will be that you helped return his voice to the U.S. Senate.
Thanks for all you do.

Want to support MoveOn's work? Donald Trump and his MAGA allies are methodically enacting a plan to place some of Trump's most ardent supporters in key election offices that oversee vote counting, have the power to certify—or decertify—election results, and declare election winners and losers. We've launched a powerful, multimillion-dollar campaign to stop Trump. But we need your help to power our effort.
Will you chip in to power our campaign to defeat Trump cronies this November and elect officials who will count each and every vote?
