Short email with an important request

I care about the future of our democracy.   John, our democracy is teetering. Today’s Republican Party has proven that they will put party over country at every opportunity. Partisan gerrymandering has given the GOP outsized power at every level of government. Now, the Supreme Court is…

Hold the line

The future of our country is on the line.   John, Right now, the sad fact is that Democrats are the only party standing up for the people. Donate right away to help Roy Cooper and North Carolina Democrats keep up their work for us >>> The Republican Party has been overrun by f…

Why do we send these fundraising emails?

Here’s your answer.   John, we know send a lot of emails asking for your support for Team Cooper. It’s likely that you get many, many more from other political campaigns. You deserve to know exactly why we keep on reaching out (and then we’ll need to ask again for your financial help).…

We WON’T let them ban abortion in NC

Electing pro-choice leaders is our top priority.   In NC, the veto is proving a potent and essential safeguard against Republican extremism “​​Cooper’s power to block actions by the Republican-led General Assembly shows the value of having a gubernatorial check on wrongheaded and …

If you care about democracy, read this.

RE: Moore v. Harper   It doesn’t stop, John. SCOTUS just announced that it will hear Moore v. Harper, a case that threatens to end democracy as we know it. And that’s not an exaggeration. Here’s what you need to know: Moore v. Harper could reinstate the extremely, illegally gerrymander…

Cheri Beasley won’t let anything stand in the way of securing reproductive rights.

Protecting the fundamental right to bodily autonomy is critical.   Hello John, In the two months since Cheri Beasley won the Democratic nomination for Senate, the election in November has become even more critical. The Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade, and Republicans are working t…

Abortion is legal in North Carolina. Let’s make sure it stays that way.

Here’s what we’re doing to protect reproductive rights:   The last several weeks have been devastating for many people across our country, John. After the Supreme Court ripped away the constitutional right to reproductive freedom, it’s now up to the states to determine whether women ge…

Politics as usual cannot go on. It’s up to us to change the narrative.

I need to ask more of you now.   John, Politics as usual can’t go on any longer. Not now. We can’t pretend that our most fundamental rights are not under attack or that our democracy isn’t threatened from within. We can’t accept more of the same from the Republican Party. We must refus…

From my iPhone.   Hi John. This is a quick but important email, so I hope you’ll read it all the way. The Supreme Court just stripped half our population of the fundamental right to bodily autonomy. I will do EVERYTHING in my power to make sure that here in North Carolina, we elect enou…

re: the GOP’s agenda for NC

Without Roy’s veto power, this is where we’d be:   John — Before we broke the GOP’s legislative supermajorities in 2018, Republicans had a few years of free reign over our state. Since then, Roy has vetoed bills that would restrict the right to abortion access, make it harder to protec…

This is an existential fight for our country’s future

fwd: Roe v. Wade was overturned.

This is a fight we cannot lose.   John, we knew this moment was coming. Yesterday, the Supreme Court officially overturned Roe v. Wade and set our fundamental rights back by half a century. They’ve sided with the far right and Republicans who care more about enacting their radical agen…

Roe v. Wade was overturned.

North Carolina must remain a state where abortion is safe, legal, and accessible.   John, The Supreme Court just overturned Roe v. Wade. Today is a dark day for America — and this decision will go down in the history books as a dangerous step backward. We cannot let this stand without …

Do you remember what happened in Virginia?

This can’t happen in North Carolina.   John — Last November, Democrats faced our first major electoral tests of the post-Trump era. We had the chance to defeat a Trump Republican in Virginia and elect a Democratic governor to help hold the line on reproductive rights, voting rights, an…

You NEED to read this list

We can only block a GOP supermajority in NC with your help.   Three quick things you need to know, John — 1. Roy Cooper’s veto is the ONLY thing stopping the far-right, GOP-controlled legislature from enacting an extreme ban on reproductive rights once Roe v. Wade is overturned. 2. Nor…
