Hi team -- did you see this message about the newest attacks on our voting rights? POLITICO just reported that extremist politicians have introduced over 140 bills this year to restrict the people-powered ballot measure process. We’ve set a goal of 75 grassroots donations before Saturday’s deadline to help us fight back against these attacks -- but we’re running a little behind. Chip in today so we can respond to these attacks on our voting rights. >>
The special interests and radical politicians saw our 20 wins through people-powered campaigns, changing over 17 million lives -- and now they’re trying to change the rules. They want to protect their corporate donors instead of helping working families. So we need your help. Chip in using this link before the Saturday’s deadline: https://secure.actblue.com/donate/tfp-eom721 Thanks for being with us, -- Begin forwarded message: --  Hi team -- I wanted to make sure you saw this recent headline from Politico:
As Politico writes, there’s been a recent “wave of legislation moving through GOP-controlled legislatures that’s intended to combat progressive policymaking at the ballot box.” They’ve seen our 20 wins through people powered ballot measure campaigns -- and now they want to change the rules, attacking our voting rights. Friend, we’re ready to fight back. But we need your help before Saturday’s critical deadline.
These extremist politicians are so out-of-touch that they’ll do anything to attack our voting rights and block our campaigns: requiring 60% instead of a simple majority, making it way more expensive to run people-powered campaigns, and even ignoring the results of elections. We’ve set a goal of 75 grassroots donations before the month closes so we have what it takes to respond to these attacks. We know that the power of the people is stronger than the special interests and the extremist politicians -- but we need you by our side during this critical moment.
Together, we’ll get it done. Thanks,
