You won’t believe who teamed up in the fight against GOP-led voter suppression: Michelle Obama and Stacey Abrams! They’re doubling their power to invite every single person who cares about our right to vote to join the fight. In their very FIRST public joint venture, Michelle Obama warned that Republicans are attacking our “freedom to vote, cast our ballots and have our votes counted” – and Stacey Abrams explained how these laws would unfairly impact “Black, Brown, young, and working-class voters, and voters with disabilities.” Michelle Obama and Stacey Abrams are drawing attention to this problem. Now, it’s our turn to do something about it. Will you take action today? Please rush a $7 donation to elect state Democrats who will FIGHT for voting rights – and help make an outsized impact as we rapidly approach Election Day >> If you've stored your payment information with ActBlue Express, your donation will process immediately. Chip in $7 now Chip in $25 now Chip in $50 now Chip in $100 now Chip in another amount » Michelle Obama and Stacey Abrams are a powerful team – that’ll be a much-needed asset to Democrats during the midterms. That’s because the stakes couldn’t be higher: Republican state legislators are pulling out all the stops to restrict Americans’ access to the ballot box. The GOP cares more about clinging to power than protecting the fundamental freedoms of our democracy. But we care about ensuring free and fair elections. That’s why Democrats like Michelle Obama and Stacey Abrams – along with millions of voters, activists, and grassroots supporters – are taking on the GOP and its voter suppression efforts. But it’s going to take all of us pitching in: Chip in $7 now to elect state Democrats and defend voting rights nationwide >> Thanks, DLCC Team DONATE » BREAKING: New poll shows Cheri Beasley taking the LEAD over Trump-endorsed Ted Budd!

We’ve set an emergency $25,000 fundraising goal to help Cheri hold onto this critical lead and expand our Senate majority, but we’re falling short with just HOURS until the deadline! So please, before midnight: Split a donation of $5 or more between Cheri Beasley and the DSCC to keep our momentum going, defeat pro-Trump Ted Budd, and expand our razor-thin Senate majority >> If you've saved payment info with ActBlue Express, your donation will be processed immediately and split between Cheri Beasley and the DSCC.

Many of them are stationed far away from their families, sometimes missing their kids' first words and steps. They can't be at precious events like summer baseball games, graduations and dance recitals. It's not easy. Military dads sacrifice so much to serve their country and keep us safe at home. We need to make sure they feel appreciated on Father's Day, so we set a goal to get 25,000 signatures on our card honoring military dads. We can't fill up this card without your help, so please sign our Father's Day card honoring military dads now. SIGN THE CARD During my time in the U.S. Air Force, I spent many holidays away from home. Signing a card may not seem like a lot, but trust me, any time I got a reminder that folks back home were thinking about us, it meant so much. That's why I'm asking for your help today in giving our service members that same support and encouragement. Please, we need to get 25,000 signatures before Father's Day — and it's only two days away. Will you add your name now to help fill up the card? Thank you for helping make Father's Day special for American heroes! Christopher Plamp, USO United Service Organizations, Inc.

They are the ones we’ve been waiting for.  — The Obama Foundation      Donate to empower rising leaders bringing hope to their communities.

Take it from voting rights champion Michelle Obama herself: Change begins at the local level – as the only Democratic committee dedicated to electing state legislative candidates across the country, the DLCC is working to empower voters to support state Democratic candidates.

Waiting on your response, DLCC Team DONATE >> Here’s the deal, Sula – the Roberts Supreme Court doesn’t seem to care if redistricting is fair. Salon: “Supreme Court lets states use illegally gerrymandered GOP maps in 2022 midterm elections” FIGHT BACK NOW So it’s clear our movement can’t rely on SCOTUS. Instead, we have to be proactive about building on the progress we’ve made toward fair redistricting and securing a future in which fair elections are protected. How do we do that? By using the 2022 elections to: ➞ Support Democrats who will fight for fair maps ➞ Hold Republican map manipulators like Ron DeSantis accountable ➞ Prevent the GOP from stacking state courts ➞ Defend our democracy Help us do it >>> The NDRC just announced our initial list of 2022 Democracy Targets, dozens of races for offices that will play a critical role in determining whether redistricting is fair and whether our democracy is strong – or compromised. Sula, as someone who cares about fair maps and voting rights, you've seen what Republicans are willing to do in service of cementing their own power. This election could be our last chance to stop them.

National Democratic Redistricting Committee 700 13th Street NW, Suite 600 Washington, DC 20005 United States   Sula, Juneteenth commemorates the end of slavery in America -- a moment certainly worth celebrating. But it’s also a day for us to reflect on the emotional and intentional work that still needs to be done to make this a country that is truly equitable for Black people. We’re now two years removed from the protests that spread across the world in the wake of George Floyd’s murder. In those two years, we saw the defeat and de-platforming of Donald Trump, but we’ve also seen more failures to achieve justice in the criminal justice system, a rise in hate crimes targeting Black communities, and renewed attempts to shut Black voters out of elections through voter suppression and gerrymandering. This all makes it clear that we should feel an urgency to promote equity and root out hate in this country. Our team at All On The Line believes that systemic racism is real and prevalent in America. It pervades our communities, workplaces, and government. We’re taking a moment of reflection this Juneteenth to think intentionally about the part that each of us can play to not just say, but demonstrate, that Black Lives Matter. As one of our online supporters, we recognize that one way many of you choose to make change is through financial contributions. We wanted to point you toward a partner that we’ve been proud to work with if today you’re considering contributing to an organization that’s doing impactful work in Black communities. BLOC (Black Leaders Organizing for Communities) is working to lift up the Black citizens, leaders, and businesses in Milwaukee and throughout Wisconsin -- a critical region of focus in both the fights to fix our criminal justice system and restore our democracy. Donations to BLOC allow them to hold elected officials accountable and promote ways to make an impact at the community level. Will you take action this Juneteenth by pitching in a few dollars to BLOC to fund their community-based organizing that can make lasting change for Black communities in Wisconsin?

Big Lie Update (via DLCC.org) <staff@dlcc.org> Para:sula_costa@yahoo.com qui., 16 de jun. às 19:33     FIRST: Ginni Thomas, wife of Justice Clarence Thomas, urged the Trump White House to overturn the results of the 2020 election. THEN: New information came to light that reveals Ginni Thomas schemed to convince 29 Arizona state legislators to help overturn Trump’s defeat! BUT: Republicans are defending Justice Thomas, claiming there’s no need for recusal. AND RIGHT NOW: Insurrectionists and Trump cronies involved in the events of January 6th are in ongoing legal battles across the country – legal battles that could advance to the Supreme Court! The Supreme Court does not have any formal ethics rules regarding when a Justice should recuse themselves, so we’re polling local Democrats to see where they stand on Justice Thomas’s potential conflict of interest. Can you be one of 100 local Democrats to take our 1-click poll? >> Do you think Justice Clarence Thomas should recuse himself from any cases related to the 2020 election?  Yes  No  Unsure TAKE THE POLL → This is really serious. Ginni Thomas’ has been exposed not once, but twice for her efforts to try and overturn Biden’s victory. The Supreme Court is supposed to put the rule of law above anything else – so this latest development could SERIOUSLY interfere in Justice Thomas’s ability to do his job. But there is no ethics requirement for when Supreme Court Justices should recuse themselves, so we need your input today. Don’t delay, will you be one of the first 100 local Democrats to take our poll? >> TAKE THE POLL → Please respond, DLCC Research Team DONATE >>         Another Winner From Him Yesterday           Secret State  Wins 15/2 (4/1JF)                                         Tony gave us another winner yesterday with Secret State at Royal Ascot.             Get Today's Info He's passed on another one to me for today & I'm offering you the same deal. No Win = Tomorrow's Free                                                      El Picador  WINNER  8/1  Mystical Applause  WINNER 4/1           Secret State  WINNER 15/2                 I want us to back these stable gambles together , so here's the deal..                   £2.50 Discount Applied Below One time payment of £10 instead of £12.50 If it doesn't WIN I will send you Saturday's info for free       That's what I'm doing for you.

We helped give Democrats a seat at the map-drawing table and supported redistricting reforms. Then thanks to your help, we were able to secure what The New York Times called the most balanced congressional map in a generation. But Republicans doubled down on their gerrymandering, leading President Obama to warn us that "The gains we've made in this redistricting cycle are fragile." So now, we're taking the fight into the 2022 midterm elections by targeting dozens of races that will determine whether we can achieve fair redistricting and a functioning democracy. And we urgently need your help with all our work, Sula. Will you pitch in now? We have plans to target dozens of races in at least 17 states, from governor's races in Wisconsin and Nevada to state supreme court races to state legislative contests in Pennsylvania and Michigan. But whether we can invest at the level we need to in these races and all our work in the fight for fair maps depends on how much support we get from our online grassroots donors. That's why I'm coming to you today. We just made this announcement and it's important to strike while the iron is hot. Before you do anything else, will you send a quick donation to the NDRC to help us defend democracy in the 2022 elections?
