John,

Yesterday, I wrote to you about Aftyn Behn, a Social Security champion from Tennessee who is running for U.S. House in a special election. That election is today — and recent polling puts Behn within just two points of her Republican opponent.

That’s why I’m holding a virtual phone bank to Get Out the Vote!

Sign up here to phone bank with me for Social Security champion Aftyn Behn!

My phone bank is at 5pm ET/2pm PT, and I’d love to see you on Zoom! But if that time doesn’t work for you, you can use the same link to sign up for phone banks for Aftyn all day long.

Aftyn is a rising star who decided to run for U.S. House because she is furious about the Trump administration’s cuts to Social Security and Medicaid. That’s a message that could help her pull off a massive upset in this bright red district.

Aftyn Behn needs our help to win today’s special election for U.S. House! Sign up here to join my virtual phone bank and help Get Out the Vote.

Thanks,

P.S. If you’re not able to phone bank, you can also help Get Out the Vote by splitting a contribution of $10 between Aftyn’s campaign and Social Security Works today!

John,

Aftyn Behn is a social worker, community organizer, and member of the Tennessee House of Representatives. She’s running for U.S. House in a special election — which is being held tomorrow.

Aftyn is running as a Democrat in a deep red district, but recent polling shows her within 2 points of her Republican opponent.¹

Protecting Social Security is a top priority for Aftyn. This spring, she organized a #HandsOffSocialSecurity rally to protest the Trump administration’s cuts.² And when Aftyn learned that the Trump administration was trying to take away her close friend’s Social Security disability benefits, she decided to run for Congress.³

Aftyn Behn’s special election is tomorrow. Help her get out the vote by splitting a contribution of $10 between her campaign and Social Security Works today.

Aftyn is on the cusp of a huge upset in a congressional district Trump thinks he owns. If she wins, it will send a message to Trump and every Republican in Congress — hands off Social Security!

Once in Congress, Aftyn will be a key leader in fighting the Trump administration’s cuts to the Social Security Administration. Social Security is not just another issue for her, it’s the one that motivated her campaign.

Chip in $10 to help Social Security champion Aftyn Behn pull off an upset in a bright red Congressional district tomorrow!
