Our democracy has shined as a beacon of light, hope, and opportunity for all. And, as Americans, we've aimed to shine that light on other nations as well. That's been true the whole time I've served my country in and out of uniform.

We send folks overseas to defend the right to vote from every aspect. But here at home, Republicans are proposing laws making it harder to vote -- sometimes even trying to ban giving water to people waiting in line.

I'm disgusted. These laws are not freedom and democracy at work -- they're the opposite. They're GOP-sponsored voter suppression. And we can't just leave it be.

We have a responsibility to protect our most sacred, fundamental right to vote against GOP-led attacks. At the DNC, we're building a nationwide voter-protection program of experts at the state level, running a 24/7 voter-protection hotline, and much more to ensure folks have access to the polls. But we need your help.

Make a $7 donation to the DNC today. Anything you're able to contribute will be used to fortify our voter protection program and elect Democrats who're committed to defending our democracy.

What Republicans are doing -- suppressing the vote and preventing Americans from exercising their most fundamental right -- is as unpatriotic as it gets.

I'm counting on this grassroots team to support our party in this fight. The DNC is the only party organization tasked with electing Democrats at every level of government in every ZIP code -- so we're uniquely positioned to take on the GOP's nationwide attack on voting rights and pick up seats for Democrats at the state level.

Please make a $7 donation to the DNC today. Whatever you can give will go a long way in protecting our freedom and defending our democracy.

Thank you,

Clay
