We cannot come up short, Pat

This final FEC deadline is mission critical, Pat.

DemocratsJoin us.
As a civil rights lawyer, not much offends my sense of justice more than Republican efforts to suppress the right to vote.

That's why two developments over the past week have put me over the edge:
  • In North Dakota, the Supreme Court just upheld a voter ID law that disproportionately makes it harder for Native Americans to cast a ballot.
  • In Georgia, Brian Kemp, the state's top election official who is now running for governor against Stacey Abrams, is using his position to prevent voters across the state from getting to the polls. He has implemented an "exact match" policy that purges voters from the rolls if their names do not precisely match state records -- which could happen because of typos, missing hyphens, or clerical errors. It's estimated this will affect 53,000 voters, most of whom are African American.
We're not taking these shameful voter suppression efforts lying down -- here are a few urgent projects the DNC is working on to protect all Americans' fundamental right to vote:
  • Funding permanent voter protection efforts in states like Georgia and Florida, including hiring voter protection staff and poll watchers.
  • Establishing a full-time voter protection hotline that voters can call or text to report issues.
  • Sending support to states across the country to help elect more Democratic attorneys general and secretaries of state who will oversee fair elections in the years to come.
Before Wednesday's final FEC deadline, will you rush an urgent $3 donation to help support the DNC's voter protection efforts across the country? Even a single dollar will make a difference in our ability to protect Americans' right to vote this November.

Making it harder for people to vote -- especially communities of color and young people -- is fundamentally anti-democratic. But voter suppression is now undeniably an ongoing part of the Republican playbook. They know that when more people vote, Democrats win -- so they try to win elections based on how few people turn out to vote.

We cannot let their strategy succeed -- that's why we are committed to mobilizing millions of voters over the next few weeks, and why we're doing everything we can to fight the GOP's voter suppression efforts.

If you agree that every single eligible voter deserves to have their say in this year's elections, I'm asking you to rush an urgent $3 donation to support the DNC's voter protection efforts before Wednesday's final FEC deadline.

Thank you,

Seema
