John,

Tammy Baldwin's in danger.

Wisconsin, to quote an old slogan, "ain't what it used to be." Back in the days of Senators Russ Feingold and Herb Kohl it was a safe Democratic state. Yet, as we painfully are aware from Ron Johnson eking out a 1% win in 2022, the long, despicable reign of Gov. Scott Walker and gerrymandering/election suppression locked in via a right-wing Supreme Court (something else we're hoping to change), Wisconsin's changed.

When Democrats were warned that Sen. Russ Feingold’s seat was in danger, not enough of us took it seriously. We all know better now. Help keep the awesome, progressive Tammy Baldwin and our Senate majority, and join Blue Amp Action in giving Senator Baldwin $5, $10, $25 or whatever you can.

Rural voters have moved to the GOP en masse, and Wisconsin is now one of 3-4 key swing states. With Senator Baldwin's courage to not become a Kyrsten Sinema, proudly leading on progressive issues, she's put her Senate seat in danger. 

And, now, polling is showing she could lose, a death blow to our Senate majority, costing us one of the foremost progressive champions in the Senate:

Now the rumors are that abhorrent two-term Gov. Walker may join the race. He has name recognition and a love that delivers seats to Republicans--The Koch Bros have always had him on their Valentine's Day list, a key cog in their machine. 

Democrats must be rewarded for courage, not punished. Or we can prepare to see many more Sinemas and many fewer Baldwins. And we'll suffer mightily for it. 

So, for the awesome, progressive Tammy Baldwin and our Senate majority, can you join Blue Amp Action in giving Senator Baldwin $5, $10, $25 or whatever you can?

THANK YOU!!

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.
