Guts

Organizing for America
Friend --

"This is a threat to our democracy...And if we just stand by and allow the special interests to silence anybody who's got the guts to stand up to them, our country's going to be a very different place."

That's what the President just said about the Chamber of Commerce, a right-wing group spending $75 million to beat Democrats this fall, and reportedly taking money from foreign corporations -- some even owned by foreign governments.

These groups are trying to buy our elections, backing candidates who want to tear down everything that makes the middle class strong in this country: things like Medicare, Social Security, even the minimum wage.

Donations are pouring in from the President's and First Lady's notes this week, but we all need to do what we can to stop this threat to our democracy.

Will you chip in $3 right now? Your gift will be matched by a fellow supporter who is just as dedicated as you are.

There's no cavalry to help fight against this -- just you.

You knock the doors, make the phone calls, and talk to one voter at a time to sway this election. And yes, every clipboard, every office, every piece of mail reminding a voter where to cast her ballot, and every pizza for weary volunteers gets paid for by you. Not by PACs, not by lobbyists -- you.

There's another grassroots supporter who knows this, and has offered to match your contribution.

Donate $3 or more now to double your impact today:

Let's do this,

Mitch
