We’re less than a month away from five special elections happening in Pennsylvania and New Hampshire that are strong opportunities for Democrats to win BIG. But it won’t be easy – here’s what we’re up against: ➝ In Pennsylvania, House Democrats narrowly flipped the chamber in November’s midterms, but now there are three special elections happening on February 7 that could determine control of the chamber. All three seats are critical for a Democratic majority. ➝ And in New Hampshire, this race is a toss-up leaning in favor of Democrats – where we're just four seats away from a majority. If we can secure this win, it will help us lay the groundwork to potentially FLIP this chamber. Republicans currently control 28 state legislatures, and flipping legislatures one seat at a time takes constant, unrelenting support from grassroots supporters like you. Special elections like these are how we change the game, so these races are critical for state Democrats. In Pennsylvania, the GOP is gearing up to push constitutional amendments banning abortion and a voter ID requirement if they win these special elections – so whether we can come together to build strong enough campaigns for these candidates to win will have real consequences. Voting in these elections will start soon and campaigning is already in full swing. Can we count on you to chip in and help Democrats across the country defend and flip key seats like these? >> >> If you've stored your payment information with ActBlue Express, your donation will process immediately.

This is all because of our grassroots supporters – so we thought we’d give you a recap of these trifectas’ first orders of business: In Michigan, Democrats are on the precipice of striking an archaic 1931 abortion ban from the books and ensuring abortion access for millions in Michigan and the surrounding states! In Illinois, Democrats passed a sweeping assault weapons ban to make our communities safer, despite massive Republican opposition! And in Minnesota, Democrats passed their first bill to provide tax relief to Minnesotans, saving individuals and business owners money! And that’s just in the past two weeks! The proof is in the pudding: when we elect state Democrats, they deliver. It’s just the start – in the next few months, there will be competitive state legislative seats up for election – some that could determine control of entire chambers! That’s even more chances to get closer to our next Democratic trifecta. But Republicans outraised us every quarter of the past year, and they're ready to avenge their November losses – that’s why it’s so important that we don’t rest on our laurels. We need to do everything we can to keep up our momentum and stave off state Republicans, and that starts with hitting each and every one of our monthly fundraising goals.

These attempts are so they can tighten rules around absentee voting, giving these lawmakers power to prosecute election discrepancies. This is another unprincipled power grab by imposing voting changes and suppressing voters' access to the ballot box.  When A.G.

If you want to help The Collective PAC build Black political power up and down the ballot, and across the country, then you’re in the right place. If you'd like to unsubscribe click here. During my time in Congress, I've fought tirelessly to make peace, justice and equality a reality for all people across our country. But my drive to help my community didn't start in Congress. It comes from the very beginning. It comes from growing up in segregated El Paso, Texas — where my sisters and I were the only Black kids at our Catholic school. It comes from working alongside the local NAACP to integrate my cheerleading squad at San Fernando High School. It comes from trailblazers like Shirley Chisholm, the first African American woman elected to Congress, who inspired me to vote for the first time and who later became a mentor and friend. And it's this activism that has driven my career in public service, from my time as a community advocate to the California State Legislature and then on to the halls of Congress. I've never stopped fighting to build a state and a country that works for every single person — no matter what zip code you come from. And I never will. But the challenges our country is facing need bold, progressive solutions. We need to tackle the climate crisis so that we leave the planet better than we found it, not worse. We need to increase access to raise the minimum wage and pass pro-union policies so that working families can thrive. We need to secure and expand our civil liberties — from reproductive freedom to voting rights — so that we can build a progressive future that works for everyone. Now, as I reflect on how I can best continue this fight, I want you to hear this from me personally: I told my colleagues I'm exploring a run for Senate and asked for their support. And now I am asking you for yours. If I’m going to become the only African American woman serving in the Senate, I'll need the strongest possible grassroots team behind me. That's why I'm personally asking you: If you're with me in this fight, will you split $10 or more between my campaign and The Collective PAC to join Team Lee and help me build a progressive future for us all?

Sula -- according to new research, state-level changes, big data, and state judicial decisions weakened gerrymandering's grip on the political makeup of American democracy in the last three elections.

So here’s the situation -- extreme Republicans in North Carolina have a long history of manipulating maps. But voters keep prevailing in overturning those maps in court.

However, less surprisingly, it could come roaring back if anti-democratic radicals have their way in the decisions due from the U.S. Supreme Court later in the spring. 

Help All On The Line as we prepare for those SCOTUS decisions and protect fair maps from radical gerrymandering in 2023 and over the decade.

If you've saved your payment information with ActBlue Express, your donation will go through immediately:

DONATE $50	DONATE $100
DONATE $250	Another Amount

Here are examples of how the rise of radical gerrymandering diminishes fair democracy in some AOTL target states:

• In states like Alabama, lawmakers want to disregard decades of legal precedent and are pushing for the adoption of a new race-blind test under the Voting Rights Act.
• In Ohio, right-wing lawmakers elected under a gerrymandered state legislative map continue to push anti-democracy legislation including restrictive voter ID legislation and a measure designed to make citizen-led constitutional amendments harder to pass.
• In Florida, the political interests of elected officials paved the way for the passage of gerrymandered maps in flagrant disregard of the state’s constitutional prohibitions.

Fair redistricting is part of the foundation of our democracy. It ensures neither party becomes too extreme or polarized. We cannot allow a new wave of radical gerrymandering districts to go unchecked. 

Will you make a donation today to boost AOTL’s plan to protect fair redistricting and maintain the integrity of our democracy for generations to come?

We’re two weeks away from the first of SIX special elections in Pennsylvania and New Hampshire. These next six races of 2023 are big opportunities for Democrats: Winning in Pennsylvania is essential for Democrats to HOLD the House majority – if we lose these races, Democrats could be pushed back into the minority. New Hampshire’s race is a TOSSUP that we must win to ensure we keep our razor-thin chamber margins. If we keep winning special elections in New Hampshire, we could FLIP the chamber sometime this year. Our candidates are gearing up for a tough fight because special elections are notoriously unpredictable – earlier this month, our Democrat flipped his Virginia Senate seat by just 696 votes. That’s why we need your help to come together so we can build campaigns strong enough to meet this critical moment.
