Republicans are trying to pass anti-voter legislation nationwide in an effort to stop Democrats' progress in its tracks. As the DNC's Director of Civic Engagement and Voter Protection, I hope you'll give me a chance to explain why your investment before tomorrow's deadline matters so much -- and the power you have to protect and expand access to the ballot box.
With elections this year and midterms right around the corner, we cannot afford to leave the GOP's national attacks on voting rights unanswered. Just take a look at what they've been up to:
Defending the right to vote on the ground and in the courts is expensive. We cannot run the risk of falling behind our fundraising goals if we want to meet the moment with the strength it requires.
So, will you rush a $7 donation to the DNC before tomorrow's deadline? Whatever you are able to give will help fight for the right to vote and elect Democrats nationwide.
Republicans took notice when we turned out in historic numbers last election cycle -- and they immediately got to work introducing anti-voter bills. But the DNC is fighting back -- here's how:
-
Year-round voter protection programs: The DNC employed a top-notch voter protection team last cycle -- including expert litigators to fight back in courts as well as skilled staff embedded in key states to educate voters and mobilize volunteers to protect the right to vote. This cycle, with voting rights under attack from every direction, we're continuing our voter protection efforts year-round -- but we simply cannot maintain this robust level of support without your help.
-
Direct voter support: IWillVote.com is a one-stop shop to register and educate voters, as well as help them find their polling place or ballot drop-box. The DNC's voter assistance hotline is critical for folks with questions about casting their ballot. These resources are just some of the ways we're promoting access to the ballot box, and we're looking for your help to make them as effective as possible.
-
Electing Democrats nationwide: The DNC works year-round to elect down-ballot Democrats -- and protecting the right to vote is a critical component of this work.
These programs are vital to staving off Republican efforts -- and they're most effective when invested in early. That is exactly why we're relying on the generosity of Democrats like you during important fundraising moments like tomorrow's deadline.
If you're able, make a $7 donation to the DNC before tomorrow's fundraising deadline so that we can continue to defend our democracy and elect Democrats nationwide in the years to come.
Thank you,
Reyna

P.S. Republicans are running a national anti-voter campaign, and without folks like you, we risk being unable to fight back. Donate $7 before tomorrow's critical deadline so we can battle Republican anti-voter tactics and continue electing Democrats up and down the ballot.
