My 'Bama Says: President Obama: “If we want democracy to flourish, we will have to fight for it.”

President Obama quote If we want democracy to flourish, we will have to fight for it, we will have to nurture it, we will have to demonstrate its value, again and again, in improving the lives of ordinary people.

Diane,

We couldn't agree more with President Obama. With our democracy at risk, we need to work as hard as humanly possible to make sure it survives for future generations. Here at the NDRC, we're well aware of the threat — so here's some highlights of what we're doing about it:

Working to help elect pro-democracy candidates. To date, we've endorsed 14 Democracy Defenders who understand how important it is to ensure our democracy thrives in the future. And with the attacks on our system of government ramping up, officials like them could be our last line of defense.

Defending and expanding access to the ballot. Many in the GOP have been rolling back voting rights for a long time, and their efforts have only escalated in recent years. That's why we're working to help make sure everyone understands their rights and pushing for increased protections for voting access.

Stopping election deniers from taking over election infrastructure. Election deniers are working to corrupt the pool of election workers and administrators with partisan activists who wanted to overturn the results of the 2020 election. Stopping them is critical to ensuring the survival of our democracy.

All of this work is necessary if we're going to stop attacks on our democracy, but we can't do any of it without the support of our donors. And with the midterms just weeks away, we need your help now more than ever to keep up the fight.

So Diane, will you answer President Obama's call to defend our democracy and pitch in anything you can today to support all the work we're doing at the NDRC?
