A personal message

Hi, team, it's Governor Gretchen Whitmer here with an important request. We’re less than a year out from the 2024 election – and that means we need to hit the ground running to build up our war chest. In just a moment, I’m going to ask you to make a matched donation to the DGA Thursday night’s end-of-month deadline.. But first, I want to tell you exactly what’s on the line. With Washington gridlocked, governors like me are our last line of defense against attacks on our most fundamental rights as citizens. GOP governors and conservative-majority legislatures are trying to suppress the vote, undermine gun violence prevention efforts, enact abortion bans, and stop Democratic progress at any cost. They want to take us backward. Right now, far-right megadonors are preparing to spend millions to attack Democrats on the airwaves and destroy our blue firewall. We need a huge grassroots investment now to build up campaign infrastructures, activate volunteers, and propel our candidates to victory in 2024 and beyond. So, I need you to step up right now. Will you make a grassroots donation of $3, $6 or whatever you can before our critical February deadline Thursday at midnight? All donations will be matched up to our $50,000 end-of-month goal. If you've saved payment information with ActBlue Express, your donation will go through immediately: Donate $3 (and have it DOUBLE-MATCHED) Donate $6 (and have it DOUBLE-MATCHED) Donate $12 (and have it DOUBLE-MATCHED) Or donate other amount (and have it DOUBLE-MATCHED) Listen, this team and supporters like you were indispensable during my race for governor. When I needed you most, you showed up. Thanks to your investment in me, I’m able to fight for Michiganders each and every day and deliver wins I’m so proud of – like repealing our archaic abortion ban and signing the Reproductive Health Act. But right now, the DGA is facing another set of major challenges in swing states like North Carolina and New Hampshire, and they need supporters like you to step up once more. I won’t sugarcoat it. 2024 will be an uphill battle for the White House, control of Congress, and key governorships across the country – a fight for the fundamental freedoms we hold dear. So I’m asking: can we count on you, team? If your answer is yes, please use the personalized link below and chip in to help us meet our $50,000 goal before midnight Thursday: https://www.democraticgovernors.org/jeannescookies.rightnow@blogger.com-17235255 Thank you for your support and for your continued commitment to a better future. With gratitude, Gretchen Whitmer Governor of Michigan Gretchen Whitmer is the Governor of Michigan. She was reelected last year by a double-digit margin because she’ll never stop fighting for working families. She has helped create thousands of good-paying jobs, signed the largest infrastructure plan in state history with funding to fix the damn roads, and made the largest education investment Michigan's ever seen.   Will you chip in $3 or whatever you can before our critical deadline Thursday night? All donations will be matched up to our $50,000 end-of-month goal. Rush $3 (becomes 2X-MATCHED) We’re relying on grassroots supporters to provide us with the urgent resources we need to win nationwide.
