important request for you

Donate $3 (and have it MATCHED) Hi there, Governor Gretchen Whitmer here. I wanted to reach out personally to tell you exactly what’s on the line this year. In Vice President Kamala Harris, we have a candidate we can count on to fight everyday to lower prices, protect our rights and build an economy that works for everyone. That’s why I’m fired up to not just endorse Vice President Harris, but also serve as a co-chair of her campaign. She’s a former prosecutor, a champion for reproductive freedom, and I know she’s got Michigan’s back. This is in stark contrast to Donald Trump, a convicted felon who stokes violence, overturned Roe, and drove our economy into the ground. We have a clear choice in November. Between a Republican party dominated by extremists in thrall to a convicted felon and Democrats working to safeguard our fundamental freedoms. But I won’t sugarcoat it, team – with our candidates facing an onslaught of far-right funded attack ads, this is going to be an uphill battle. That’s why I’m asking today if you can step up and join our fight to protect the fundamental freedoms we hold most dear. Can I count on you to make a grassroots donation of $3 – or more – to elect strong Democratic candidates and stop GOP extremism across the country before the DGA’s end-of-month deadline at midnight? Your donation will be DOUBLED up to the DGA’s $150,000 goal – but only until midnight tonight, so please don’t wait. Donate $3 (and have it MATCHED) Team, Republicans have made it clear where they stand. Two weeks ago, they officially chose Donald Trump to be their standard bearer. They nominated someone who brags about overturning Roe v. Wade, said women should face “punishment” for having an abortion, and who wants to use the implements of government to go after his enemies and is running on vengeance and grievance as his platform. And across the country, MAGA extremists like Mark Robinson in North Carolina are following his lead. They’re working to strip away our fundamental rights and prioritize their megadonors over what’s best for working people. We can’t let them take us backward and ruin the progress we are fighting for. But far-right megadonors are already spending millions on attack ads to target Democrats and destroy our blue firewall. With less than 4 months left until Election Day, we need a huge grassroots investment now to do voter outreach, keep pace with GOP spending, and propel our candidates to victory. So can I count on you to invest in our Democrats by making a $3 donation – and having it matched up to the DGA’s $150,000 goal before tomorrow at midnight? If you've saved payment information with ActBlue Express, your donation will go through immediately: Donate $3 (and have it MATCHED) Donate $6 (and have it MATCHED) Donate $12 (and have it MATCHED) Or donate other amount (and have it MATCHED) 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 in 2022 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, protected reproductive freedom, and made the largest education investment Michigan's ever seen.   Will you chip in $3 or whatever you can today to help defend our blue firewall? All donations will be 2x-matched up to our 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.
