Let me lay this out, clear as day: I am the only Democratic Senator up for reelection in a state Trump won in 2024. This Senate race in Georgia will be the most competitive and most expensive in the nation. If you're outraged by what's happening to our country — and you're ready to fight — please split $5 between my reelection campaign and Off the Sidelines today. Otherwise, let me remind you why I ran for Senate — and why this moment is just as urgent. Before I was elected, I led investigations of corruption and human rights abuses worldwide. We exposed wrongdoing in countries where criticizing the government is dangerous, where whistleblowers and witnesses will only meet in secret, where protest carries the risk of prosecution. More and more, the atmosphere under Trump reminded me of those places where dissent was silenced by intimidation. Trump's rise wasn't just a crisis. It was a warning. I ran for Senate because I saw the danger in electing someone so profoundly unfit for the presidency and I wanted to confront the corruption that made his rise possible. I also ran — years before the Dobbs decision — because it was already clear the GOP was coming for reproductive rights. I saw Georgia as the front line in that fight. With a six-week ban now in place here, and Republicans pushing for a national abortion ban, it still is. Now this President is staging a power grab unprecedented in our history: - He's freed violent criminals who attacked the Capitol on his behalf.
- Purged independent watchdogs across government.
- Stacked key agencies with loyalists — and called on them to investigate his political opponents.
- Defied and threatened federal judges.
- Undermined the press.
Trump's goal isn't just revenge. He wants to use the government to crush the opposition. And now, Americans are living in fear of their own government. This is not a drill and it's not a bad dream. As citizens, it is the test of our lifetimes. In 2020, the pundits said flipping a Republican Senate seat in Georgia couldn't be done. But we built one of the strongest voter mobilization programs in Senate campaign history — and we won. That victory won the Senate majority. Now we must win again. And we will win again. Just like last time, I can't do it alone. So I'm asking: Please split a contribution between my reelection campaign and Off the Sidelines today, of $5 or any amount that works for you. The average online donation to our campaign is around $30. Many give less. Some give more. All that matters is that lots and lots of people are contributing what they can to power our grassroots campaign. Please, contribute today. Thanks for being part of this team. As always, Jon Ossoff |
