FWD: Why I believe in All On The Line

President Obama and I believe in this team. Chip in today to support All On The Line.
All On The Line
Team --

I wanted to make sure you saw President Obama's message below.

He and I are in this fight together, along with thousands of supporters nationwide, because we know there is no issue redistricting doesn't touch. Affordable health care, gun violence prevention, acting on climate change, protecting reproductive rights -- across the board, the progress we all want depends on delivering fair, representative districts in every single state.

President Obama and I have seen firsthand the impact that gerrymandering can have on progressive legislation, and we're determined to put an end to it. We believe deeply in this All On The Line team -- passionate grassroots leaders and activists from every corner of the country who won't stop until they end gerrymandering and map manipulation. We know they're going to get the job done.

But we need your help to get there. Chip in to support All On The Line:

[FORWARDED MESSAGE]

From: Barack Obama
Date: May 14, 2019
Subject: Why I believe in All On The Line

Team --

I know there are a lot of campaigns asking for your support right now. Today, I want to make sure you know about one that's absolutely critical to the future of our democracy.

It's called All On The Line, and it's led by a team that's fighting to end partisan and racial gerrymandering nationwide. It's an effort rooted in common sense and based on the idea that voters should pick their politicians -- not the other way around. This work is a top priority for me and my friend, former Attorney General Eric Holder.

In a second, I'm going to ask you to chip in to support All On The Line -- but first, I wanted to tell you why I believe so deeply in this cause and the people who are fighting for it every day.

It's because of the ordinary folks coming together to pick up the fight -- because they believe that with enough effort and enough passion, we can make things better.

This team is growing fast, and they're doing it the right way. All On The Line is empowering local organizers to become redistricting experts, offering free top-notch training, and helping activists make a difference in their communities. First and foremost, it's a campaign driven and informed by local volunteers.

It's good, old-fashioned neighbor-to-neighbor organizing -- the same style of organizing that I based my campaigns on in 2008 and 2012. Some of All On The Line's local leaders are the same talented folks who've fought for so much progress over the past decade. Others are first-time organizers -- new activists who are fired up and ready to go.

All have one thing in common: They want to restore fairness to our democracy.

I hope you'll join us. Contribute to All On The Line today and be a part of the team that is fighting to make our voting districts fairer:

This work is so important to me, and here's why.

Over the past decade, we've seen firsthand how gerrymandering plays a role in blocking progress on issues that the majority of Americans agreed on. Republicans in the House of Representatives refused to vote on common-sense gun laws, blocked meaningful action on climate change, and tried again and again to repeal the Affordable Care Act and strip down the security it offers to millions of Americans.

Progress on so many of the issues we care about was hurt or hindered by gerrymandering -- by politicians who knew their seats were safe from any real challenge. Because when you've got a safe seat, you've got less reason to seek out common ground.

But with All On The Line leading the way, we can change things. We can make sure our democracy works for everybody.

This is your chance to get in on the ground floor of a big movement. Chip in today to support this critical work:
