More than 360 anti-voter bills have already been introduced in state legislatures across the nation -- and some are already being enshrined in law, like in my home state of Georgia.
This is an issue close to my heart -- but the impact of these bills goes far beyond what's happening in just one state. This is a coordinated effort led by the Republican Party to undermine our democracy. And we cannot let it stand.
The Democratic National Committee is already working day and night to organize communities against bills like these, defend the right to vote in court, run a 24/7 voter protection hotline, and much more. And they're relying on our partnership ahead of their deadline this Friday to support these efforts.
Would you make a $25 donation before the DNC's deadline to help support these voter protection efforts and elect Democrats up and down the ballot nationwide? Republican lawmakers are using Georgia as a blueprint, and we need to move with urgency to save our democracy.
Last year, some Georgians waited for as long as eight hours to vote. But, instead of making our democracy more accessible, Republican lawmakers are actively choosing to make it harder for Americans to vote nationwide. The bill they just signed into law in Georgia outlaws passing out water to voters while they stand in line. That's just ridiculous.
Let's set the record straight: These laws are about the GOP trying to desperately cling to power, and silence the people in the process. These politicians are willing to diminish our democracy with the voter suppression tactics they're employing, and we're relying on supporters like you to help put an end to their efforts.
Rush $25 or anything you can afford before the DNC's Friday deadline to help the DNC fight voter suppression and elect Democrats in all 50 states, territories, and D.C.
Many thanks,

P.S. The need to protect our voting rights is urgent and pressing. Unless we come together and fight back, we could see access to the ballot blocked even further. The DNC's voter protection efforts depend on grassroots supporters like you pitching in whatever you can. Please, make a $25 gift ahead of Friday's deadline to help preserve the voices of the people and our democracy.
