I’ll get right to it: I’m asking for $1 to win a Democratic House and stop this President’s agenda. As a young man, I marched to end Jim Crow segregation. Spilled blood on the bridge in Selma. Went to jail. Got beaten by angry mobs. And watched brave Americans die. All for basic rights. Now, I’m watching this Administration make it more difficult for people of color like me to protest. To seek justice from our broken system. To even survive on our streets. I’m asking for your help to stop this President’s agenda. We badly need to elect a Democratic House. I can’t do it alone -- I know better than anyone it takes a movement of people taking a stand. I wouldn’t ask if this wasn’t critical: Can I count on your $1 before the End of Month Deadline in 24 hours? Decades after I marched in Selma, I’m watching injustice rear its ugly head again. I witnessed this President appoint 4O individuals to lifetime appointments on the federal bench -- and exactly zero of them are Black or Latino. I don’t think all White judges should be determining the fate of our Black and Latino kids -- do you? I witnessed Trump endlessly insult my fellow Congressional Black Caucus colleagues in the House, like Maxine Waters, Frederica Wilson, and even myself. Why do you think that is? After violence between neo-Nazis and good people in Charlottesville, I witnessed our President place equal blame on both sides. I simply won’t stomach that. I’ve witnessed a whole lot of injustice in my lifetime -- and the injustice I’ve seen under this Administration has been among the worst. I don’t say that lightly. I can’t overstate the urgency of the deadline in 24 hours. It is so incredibly important that we win a Democratic House to check this dangerous President. I desperately need 15,794 Democrats before the End of Month Deadline -- will you take a stand? | Paid for by the DCCC | 430 South Capitol Street SE, Washington, DC 20003 | (202) 863-1500 | www.dccc.org | Not authorized by any candidate or candidate's committee. | This message was sent to: kmyers209.shamrock5@blogger.com | If you'd like to sign up for emails in a different account, click here.
