Dear John,
We want to be sure you saw Raph's message that Koch Industries, the infamous dark money group, is planning a record year of spending in 2020 to buy our government.
Raph pledged he won’t take a single dime of corporate PAC money.
And he's the only candidate who's gone to court against dark money, stood up to Trump and won. Raph knows how to win this fight.
But with Koch Industries bent on spending record sums against candidates like Raph, we need your help.
Here are three things you can do to help our grassroots movement to stop corporate influence in elections:
1. Tell a friend about Raph's campaign. Share with them Raph's message on his
Facebook ([link removed]) and Medium ([link removed]) pages. The more people we have in our movement, the stronger we are.
2. Sign up to
volunteer. ([link removed]) You can write a letter to the editor, call friends and neighbors, share social media updates, drop literature, and more.
3.
Donate ([link removed]) $25. Raph doesn't take corporate PAC money, so he relies entirely on individual supporters like you. Any amount makes a difference.
With the Koch's targeting more and more races, it's even more important that we elect an independent Attorney General who works only for the people, not for out of state corporations.
Thank you for everything you've done so far. Together, we can win this race!
-Team Raph

John,
Koch Industries just announced plans to make 2020 its biggest year ever for dark money influence peddling in our elections. Koch's top Montana operative celebrated the plans today on social media:

The Koch Brothers helped pioneer our dangerous, new era of corporate influence in elections. Now they're saying they'll target up to 200 races in the 2020 cycle.
That's why this election cycle--and electing an Attorney General who works for us--is so important. I know how to fight dark money, and I know how to win.
* I beat President Trump in federal court over dark money (LINK ([link removed]) );
* Representing Governor Bullock, I authored the first executive order in the nation to require disclosure of political spending in government contracts (LINK ([link removed]) );
* I authored and helped shepherd the passage of our nation's first foreign money ban after the 2016 elections (LINK ([link removed]) ).
I'm also the only candidate in this race who's pledged not to take a dollar from corporate PACs, and I'm the only candidate--Democrat or Republican--whose fundraising is powered entirely by grassroots, individual supporters.
With Koch all in and set to spend a record sum to buy our government, we've got a real fight on our hands in 2020. But we've been here before, and we've got a playbook to win.
Until we clean up elections, progress on every other issue will stall. Please join me in our movement to keep our government accountable to the people, not corporations like Koch Industries.
-Raph
