URGENT: The Battle for Bakhmut grinds on as the war in Ukraine continues with no end in sight.

USO Supporter: Russian forces have made advances in Ukrainian-controlled Bakhmut in the latest updates from the front lines of the war.

And one year since Russia’s invasion began, 100,000 American service members continue to be deployed and stationed across Europe to support our NATO allies and the people of Ukraine. Many are without access to cell phones — making USO programs like Operation Phone Home more important than ever.

Because of these challenges, the number of military families in need of support has increased dramatically, with no signs of stopping. To help ensure we can meet this increased need, we’ve set up a rapid response goal to raise $50,000 via email by midnight on Saturday to show that patriotic Americans are still standing steadfast behind them:

Will you rush an emergency donation of $29 or more to help ensure we can continue supporting service members in Eastern Europe and around the world?

RUSH EMERGENCY SUPPORT NOW*

We do not know what will happen next in this war, but in moments of emergency, we know that the support of Americans like you can make a world of difference for our service members so far from home. From providing basic necessities to helping troops let their families know they’re OK, your support can make a crucial difference. That’s why we’re counting on you to step up in this critical moment.

So please, will you support our troops today by making an emergency donation?

Thank you so much for supporting our military heroes in these times of uncertainty.

The USO

*Your contribution will be joined with the contributions of others and used where it is needed most to strengthen America’s military service members by keeping them connected to family, home and country.

	I'll level with you, friend: The 2024 election is going to be HELL for Democrats up and down the ballot if we don't have your support. That's why I'm asking folks to join me and activate their 2023 Democratic Membership NOW – can I count on you? Friend, we've done a lot in these last few years: We took the White House back from Donald "Liar" Trump in 2020 and last year, we expanded our Senate majority.  But it's not enough.  MAGA extremists are in control of the House, and GOP politicians like Mitch McConnell are DETERMINED to take back the Senate too. In fact, they've already started running attack ads against top targets like Sherrod Brown in Ohio.  In the meantime, Republican leaders across the country are infringing on our fundamental rights – from passing voter suppression laws and spreading election fraud conspiracy theories to attacking LGTQ+ rights and banning abortions.  That's why I'm reaching out to you today to ask for your support. American Bridge is working hard to hold Republicans accountable and defeat them at the ballot box in 2024, but we can't do it without you, friend. So what do you say, friend, can I count on you to rush $10 now and activate your Democratic Membership before our deadline at 11:59 p.m. tonight? ACTIVATE MY MEMBERSHIP Thanks again, friend. I can always count on you. – Carville From taking down Trump in 2020 to expanding the Senate majority in 2022, American Bridge is working around the clock to hold Republicans accountable and DEFEAT them by making sure Democrats around the country are elected up and down the ballot.

THEN: National Republicans started coming after Jacky as a top target for defeat, flooding the airwaves with attack ads against us. NOW: New polling in Nevada shows Democrats and Republicans locked in a dead heat! In Nevada's last Senate race, the GOP spent over $55 MILLION to try to turn our state red. They lost by just 0.77% of the vote – making it the closest Senate race in the entire country – only because people like you rushed your support and helped power this grassroots movement to victory.

I’m making it official today, and I wanted you to hear it from me: I’m running for re-election to the U.S. Senate next year. Together, we’ve won some big battles for working families across the country. But there’s plenty more to do. So I’m staying in the fight. And I’m asking if you’ll be a part of this new campaign from Day One: Can you split a donation right now to support my re-election campaign and the critical work that the DLCC’s Grassroots Victory PAC is doing to elect Democrats to state legislatures? I’d be deeply grateful to have your support again as I take on this new righteous fight alongside other state Democrats across the country. I first ran for Senate because I saw how the system is rigged for the wealthy and well-connected and against everyone else. I won because Massachusetts voters know it too. And even though we’ve been up against powerful forces, the past ten years have shown us that when we organize, fight righteous fights, and hold those in power accountable, we can make positive change, including: Getting student loan debt cancelation to President Biden’s desk Passing a new tax on massive corporate profits Lowering the cost of hearing aids Pressuring Wells Fargo executives into resigning after their fake accounts scandal Even making billionaires cry on national TV Now I’m running for re-election because there’s a lot more we’ve got to do. Pass a wealth tax. Make child care affordable. Ensure the right to an abortion. Protect consumers from big banks. Make our government work for everyone, not just a thin slice at the top. We’re going to build this new campaign the same way we’ve built all our campaigns: from the grassroots level. Because with a grassroots-funded movement, we can fight back against extremist Republicans and powerful interests who use their deep pockets to try to block change. Please make a contribution to support my re-election campaign and the DLCC’s Grassroots Victory PAC today, if you can. Every contribution, no matter how big or small, adds up and helps show that there’s strong support for our plans and our values. Side by side, let’s rebuild the middle class, root corruption out of our government, and strengthen our democracy.

On April 4th, voters in Wisconsin will head to the polls to choose between Janet Protasiewicz and extremist Dan Kelly for an open Supreme Court seat. Now, let us tell you about Dan Kelly. ❌He wants to ban abortion outright. ❌He wants to make it harder to vote but easier to own a gun. ❌He is supported by literal insurrectionists and election deniers. ❌He helped Wisconsin Republicans in their attempt to overturn the 2020 election. And if he wins this special election, Dan Kelly will allow the GOP to run rampant with their extreme, right-wing agenda.

He’s made his allegiances clear – and he won’t hesitate to rubber stamp Republicans’ extreme plans in Wisconsin. He’ll allow them to threaten our rights, destroy our freedoms, and erode our democracy. Even worse, according to The Guardian he has an army of insurrectionists who have poured millions of dollars into Wisconsin to try to swing the race in Kelly’s favor. That’s who backs him – that’s who he’ll support if he wins in 10 days. But if we win this election, we can stop GOP extremism in its tracks. It’s up to us to counter the money from election deniers – and make it clear that we will fight back to defend our rights and our freedoms.
