POLITICO: Georgia just obliterated Lucy McBath's district. She says she's not going anywhere.


Hey – I’m Congresswoman Lucy McBath, a proud Democrat representing Georgia’s 7th district. The Georgia state legislature just passed new Congressional maps that redrew my district to be over 20 points Republican. I’m going to ask for your support in fighting back, but first let me tell you my story…


I never thought I’d become an activist, but everything changed when my son Jordan was shot and killed in November 2012.

As a grieving mother, I decided I had to turn my pain into purpose. I began working as an organizer and activist for gun safety organizations and eventually ran for Congress in a district deemed impossible for Democrats to win. So-called “experts” told me not to raise the issue of gun safety reform in Georgia, but I knew my community better.

I’ve become a leading voice on gun violence prevention in Congress, but a recent court ruling has put my reelection into question. The state legislature just passed the new Georgia Congressional maps, and the district I represent is now tilted toward the GOP by +20. Can you please pitch in $15 to help me fight back before the judge makes a ruling? All contributions to this email will go to supporting my campaign. >>


You see, my outspokenness on the gun violence epidemic has put a target on my back. The NRA (and the GOP politicians they back) have been attacking me for years. They know I won’t back down, and they’ve done everything they can to force me out of Congress.


My worst fears have unfortunately been confirmed. The GOP has shown they’ll do anything and everything in their power to force me out of the Capitol.

I need to make sure I’m prepared for what will be a highly contested reelection campaign. Can I count on you to donate $15 to my campaign ASAP? Each and every dollar will go directly to my reelection efforts. >>


Chip in $15 now >>

Chip in $25 now >>

Chip in $50 now >>

Chip in $100 now >>

Chip in another amount now >>


Thanks for having my back,

Lucy McBath

 

 

 

 

 

 
        


BAWN is committed to replacing every cowardly and complacent lawmaker, regardless of party, that denies your right to live without fear of being shot. Legislators that support the deadly proliferation of guns, instead of common sense gun safety measures, are responsible for the carnage of gun violence -- and must be voted out.

BAWN also lobbies legislators to support the assault weapon and large capacity magazine ban bills that will help put an end to the slaughter of innocent Americans.

But they can’t do this alone. BAWN is relying on your support to kick every coward who refuses to protect our children and families OUT of office. Will you chip in right away?
