<[link removed]> <[link removed]>Friend —

Yesterday Trump escalated his attacks on our movement. In an executive order issued last night, he instructed the Justice Department to investigate ActBlue, the grassroots funding platform used by Democratic candidates and our broader progressive movement to build power and win change.1

We see this for what it is: a blatant attempt to use the government to go after progressive opponents and infrastructure for democratic participation, because he’s scared of our movement’s collective power. Unlike Trump, we don’t have mega-donors like Elon Musk to bankroll our resistance. Our resources and power come directly from grassroots supporters like you.

This is just the beginning of Trump’s escalated attacks on our movement. We’re in this fight for the long haul, and we need your support to sustain our movement’s resistance. Can you rush a gift of $5, $10, or $18 to help us fight Trump’s attacks on our movement? <[link removed]>

This moment calls on each of us to rise up with all the tools in our toolbox to fight back. And together:

- We’re taking action to demand that Kilmar Abrego Garcia, Mahmoud Khalil, Rümeysa Öztürk, Badar Khan Suri, and countless others who have been disappeared be brought home
- We’re demanding immediate return and due process for those who have been illegally sent to El Salvador
- We’re rejecting the GOP’s budget proposals to dramatically increase funding for ICE’s cruel and illegal actions
- We’re calling out the Trump regime’s deliberate use of antisemitism as a smokescreen to distract from their own blatant power grabs
- We’re demanding that leaders in Congress use their power to fight alongside us

With Trump’s escalating attacks and undemocratic tactics, we need more resources to fight back at the scale that’s required. Help us fight Trump’s cruel, undemocratic agenda with a gift of $5, $10, or $18. We can’t do it without you. <[link removed]>

With gratitude,

The Bend the Arc team
