John,

We send you a congressional seat we absolutely MUST KEEP in 2024: Marcy Kaptur’s, whose 9th district of Ohio is now +3 Republican-leaning.

Kaptur is a star. Republicans in Ohio, with forethought of eliminating her from Congress, gerrymandered the 9th district from Dem leaning to +3 Republican. She responded by saying, ok, you think that's gonna be enough, and went ahead to beat J.R. Majewski, 56-43%. She stared down their sexist attacks, and responded the best way possible--by crushing them.

Kaptur has the advantage of the relationship and recognition she’s built with local voters, and a solid record of representing her voters’ interests in Congress. She can hold onto this seat again. But Republicans are betting that dumping enough money into her district after their obscene gerrymandering tactics will leave her vulnerable. If we want to get back the House majority in 2024, Republicans need to lose that bet

Will you join us, giving $5, $10, $25 or whatever you can to Rep. Marcy Kaptur's reelection?

We're down only 5 seats in the House. People switch parties, they get ill and even pass away...and then there's George Santos, from a Democratic district who likely has a future date with a prison cell in New York City or Sao Paulo.

The point is, this could get even closer, and we can and will win the House back in 2024. But it starts with holding onto our most vulnerable seats. Which includes Rep. Marcy Kaptur of Ohio.

 

 

Yes, Majewski, with his Republican-like lies about his record (said he served in Afghanistan and Iraq, really loaded cargo in Qatar) and conspiracy theories about the election and pretty much everything else, helped her out. But it was her experience as a longtime lunch-pail Midwestern Democrat that was key here, and led to one of three huge Democratic upsets in Ohio House races.

Now Republicans will throw everything--and I mean EVERYTHING--at her. So we must be there to protect this amazing Democrat who fights for her values. As you can see by the results of the last election, she'll do her part. We must do ours, providing her with the resources to run a great campaign.

The Blue Amp Action community's behind Kaptur now, as we must start early to fend off attacks by Republican billionaires. Will you join us, giving $5, $10, $25 or whatever you can to Rep. Marcy Kaptur's reelection?

Thanks for helping us win back the house from these (dragging) knuckleheads,

Cliff

About BlueAmp Action:

We cannot sugarcoat the current situation. Right-wing authoritarianism, defeated by a worldwide coalition during WWII, was only in hibernation. Over the past decade it has infected democratic societies--including ours. It is as simple as it is terrifying: What we do now will define the future of our country and world. 

We at Blue Amp Action are dedicated to liberal, open societies, where reason and science are applied to solve our problems; where civil rights--including voting rights!--are protected for all. We fight for these values every day. Speaking up on our platforms, raising the voices and the political prospects of liberal pols and pundits. 

And savvy grassroots activists like you know, just like we do, that we can’t stop watching the people we help elect: after the elections, we have to keep organizing support for the policies we like and pushing back against the ones we don’t.

When the public tunes out between elections and the only people our elected officials hear from are the paid lobbyists of wealthy corporations, our government stops being accountable to the needs of ordinary families.

Democracy never sleeps, and neither can we.

So we ask that you support our work, so we can continue to engage in this fight every moment of every day. So our kids grow up in democracy, not dystopia.

Thank you for your support for all we do! Please follow Cliff Schecter on Twitter @cliffschecter, or subscribe to The Takedown with Cliff Schecter on YouTube, to keep up to date with this battle for the heart and soul of our country.
