I just recorded this message

Will you watch my new video, "The 3 Real Reasons Trump Got Into Politics," and see why it's so important for YOU to help get him out of politics?

Dear MoveOn member,

Al Franken wants you to vote

There are a lot of things Donald Trump is, but there's one thing we need to make sure he never becomes: commander in chief.

Watch my new MoveOn video and share it with your friends. 

Together we can win this thing, my friends. But only if we all do our part.

Thanks for all you do.

Senator Al Franken

P.S. Not on Facebook? You can click here to watch the video on YouTube.

It's bold and ambitious—and exactly what is needed to help swing Senate races, resoundingly defeat Donald Trump, and give Democrats a fighting chance to take back the House."

Sign the petition re: the public option

The public option is back on the table! Will you sign the petition to show your support for health care for all?

Tell your Senator to support the public option now! 

In less than 48 hours, 33 of my fellow senators came together to cosponsor a resolution supporting a public health insurance option but many others haven't yet made a decision. We have a powerful opportunity right now to catapult the public option—a broadly popular and progressive issue—into the center of the 2016 election debate. Tell your Senator to support the public option now, because everyone deserves health care.

Dear MoveOn member,

When I partnered with MoveOn, Bernie Sanders, the Progressive Change Campaign Committee, and other progressive allies on a new Senate resolution calling for a public health insurance option, national headlines in Forbes, The Huffington Post, and elsewhere made it clear: the public option is back on the table.1,2

And when the resolution ballooned to 33 Senate cosponsors in less than 48 hours, the insurance lobby told their allies to attack us—and Republican Leader Mitch McConnell took to the Senate floor right away to do it.3,4,5

With the public option, progressives are going on the offense. We are changing the 2016 election debate and we’re inspiring voters. Will you sign and share my petition calling on the U.S. Senate to support the public option?

We can't back down. We must keep playing offense. Bernie Sanders, Hillary Clinton, and President Obama endorse a public option. Now, with Senate allies and partner organizations, we're pushing the entire Democratic Party to make this a central 2016 issue.6

Support a public option for health care. Click here to add your name alongside Bernie Sanders, Hillary Clinton, and President Obama.

Thanks!

—Senator Jeff Merkley

What do we do, Eddie?

This is Robert Fox, MoveOn's Chief Operating Officer. You don't hear from me often because I'm usually behind-the-scenes—converting our fundraising dollars into staffing and budget decisions.

Dear MoveOn member,

This is Robert Fox, MoveOn’s chief operating officer. You don't hear from me often, because I'm usually behind the scenes—converting our fundraising dollars into staffing and budget decisions.

I’m writing you because tomorrow is MoveOn’s most important quarterly FEC fundraising deadline of this entire election cycle—in what could be the most important presidential election of our lifetimes.

And we’ve now reached the point in the election where we need to make final decisions about our plans to help defeat Trump and elect Hillary Clinton in the closing weeks of this race. That’s why your donation today is so incredibly important.

Will you chip in $2.70, or as much as you can afford, before midnight Friday? Just click here.

Although there will still be opportunities to give this election, the time for some big decisions is coming to a close. There are so many things we’d like to do:

  • Can we pay for buses to bring in volunteers from non-swing states?
  • Can we pay for calling tools that would allow MoveOn members across America to reach hundreds of thousands of voters in swing states?
  • Can we buy more online ad space to run videos that tests have shown work to persuade Donald Trump supporters to change their minds, and vote for Hillary Clinton?

I know we're running a powerful program, but I don’t yet know if we will be able to do these things, which is why your donation of $2.70, or whatever you can afford, has never been more important than it is today.

MoveOn members have already stepped up in huge ways this election cycle, to make so much possible. Here's what we're doing:

  • We're taking the fight to Trump with more than 100 organizers who'll help volunteers knock on over a million doors in battleground states like North Carolina, Ohio, Pennsylvania, and Florida. And we're helping our member-endorsed Senate candidates—such as Katie McGinty, Russ Feingold, Tammy Duckworth, and Catherine Cortez-Masto—win their elections so Democrats can secure a majority in the U.S. Senate next year. 
  • We're lifting up the leadership of great organizations like Color of Change by supporting their efforts to use mobile organizing to turn out Black voters.
  • We're running our Video Lab to produce powerful videos that can reach millions of people, including young voters, who are more likely to tune out the mainstream media and the debates but are very active on social media.

And now, we need to make hard decisions: Can we do even more? Or do we have to stick or our existing plans?

It’s up to you. How big we can go depends on how much we raise by Friday at midnight. Which is why I’m asking you now:

Can we count on you to step up today and make a $2.70 contribution before midnight Friday? Just click here.

So much hinges on the outcome of this election. It’s a fight to decide who we are as a people—and what kind of country we want to live in.

That’s why we cannot afford to fall short financially and give this election away to Donald Trump and his Republican Party.

Thanks for all you do.

My favorite T-shirt this election season

We've launched inspiring new designs that support our work to defeat Trump.

Dear MoveOn member,

Early this summer, MoveOn put out a call to talented artists across the country to create powerful images to help defeat Trump and his politics of hate. We turned the best submissions (and they are really good!) into T-shirts and stickers. And I'm so excited for you to see them now—before we run out of stock!

MoveOn Election Store

(If you can't see the image above—it's a shirt and stickers inspired by our United Against Hate campaign, designed to help defeat Trump. Click here to check them out and place your order.

Every T-shirt and sticker you buy will help keep Trump out of the White House. Your contributions will support our 100 campaign organizers on the ground, running a massive, volunteer-fueled voter turnout program in the battleground states that will decide this election. And by wearing the shirt, you’ll help spread a message about rejecting Trump’s hateful politics wherever you go!

Check out our powerful designs now and get your favorites—before they're gone!

Thanks for all you do.

P.S. MoveOn just launched this online election store for the first time. And it's true: Every item and contribution will invest in our voter turnout program for this final sprint to the election. Check it out now—while supplies last!

Want to support our work? Consensus among mainstream media is that Hillary Clinton handily won Monday's debate—and presented a stark contrast to Donald Trump. But that doesn't matter if swing state voters don't see this sharp contrast—and then get to the polls to vote against Trump and for Clinton.

It's clear what we need to do right now. Person-to-person contact has been shown to be the most effective way of swaying voters. MoveOn members and staff are working day and night to get out the vote. Don’t wake up the morning after Election Day wishing you had done more.

Volunteer with MoveOn this election?

Donald Trump bullied, lied, and interrupted. Hillary Clinton presented concrete and progressive plans. The contrast was clear.

Dear MoveOn member,

If you were among the millions of Americans who watched last night’s presidential debate, you saw the stark contrast between our choices in this election.  

Donald Trump bullied, lied, and interrupted. He doubled down on failed policies (like huge tax cuts for the wealthy), unconstitutional policies (like stop-and-frisk policing), and birther conspiracies. At every turn, he reminded us again why we need to defeat him in November. 

Hillary Clinton presented concrete and progressive plans to reduce income inequality, address systemic racism in the criminal justice system, and invest in real diplomacy. 

But in the end, it won't come down to what the candidates say on the stage. It will come down to what all of us do over the next six weeks—just 42 days.
 
Can you volunteer some time between now and Election Day with MoveOn's United Against Hate campaign to defeat Donald Trump and elect Hillary Clinton? There are tons of ways to help, from texting to phone calling to traveling to a key swing state and talking to voters in person. There's a role for you! Just click here to get started.
 
With just six weeks until Election Day, the polls are virtually tied. Polling expert Nate Silver estimates that if the election were held today, Donald Trump would have a 44.6% chance of winning.1 It's downright scary, and it's also why we need to get to work this weekend.  

The millions of voters who began tuning in last night saw Donald Trump as unqualified, unprepared for the presidency, and a danger to the country. They saw a Hillary Clinton who was strong, composed, and tough when needed. But plenty of people didn't watch. And whether they did or not, progressive voters in key states absolutely need to hear from fellow progressives like you with a reminder to get out and vote in November. 

MoveOn is hiring more than 100 organizers to mobilize tens of thousands of MoveOn volunteers to knock on more than one million doors in eight key states, and we'll be making tens of thousands of calls as well, to reach the voters who have not yet committed to showing up on Election Day. Every MoveOn member can play a role, whether you have a few minutes, a few hours, a few days, or few weeks between now and November 8.

Click here to sign up to volunteer to help get progressive voters in critical states to the polls—and help make the difference this election.

Thanks for all you do.

That debate

Donald Trump alternately bullied, boasted, rambled, and lied. But none of that matters if swing state voters don't understand this sharp contrast—and then get to the polls to vote against Trump and for Clinton.

Dear MoveOn member,

In tonight's debate, Donald Trump alternately bullied, boasted, rambled, and lied. He cheered for failed and racist policies, from lowering taxes on the very rich to stop-and-frisk policing. Conventional wisdom among mainstream media is that the debate presented a stark contrast, and that Clinton won handily.1

But none of that matters if swing state voters don't understand this sharp contrast—and then get to the polls to vote against Trump and for Clinton.

The work we need to do right now is clear. Person-to-person contact has been shown to be the most effective way of swaying voters.2 MoveOn members are working day and night to get out the vote and keep Donald Trump out of the White House by electing Hillary Clinton. Will you help out?

Yes, I'll chip in $2.70 now to keep Donald Trump out of the White House.

Tonight's performance by Donald Trump wasn't an exception. Trump has been lying this entire election. Yet the race is STILL a dead heat.3

To win, there are three key things we need to do:

  • Get every last progressive voter in key swing states to go to the polls and to vote for Hillary, using an army of 100 organizers deployed on the ground in key battleground states to train tens of thousands of volunteers to knock on more than one million doors.
  • Persuade voters in swing states who are considering Gary Johnson or Jill Stein that there’s way too much at stake to risk a Trump presidency, with hard-hitting videos spread through social media and online advertising on websites popular with young voters, like Hulu, Facebook, and YouTube.
  • Make the case FOR Hillary Clinton, with champions like Bernie Sanders, Michelle Obama, Elizabeth Warren, and Al Franken talking about the progressive agenda she supports.

This is it. A fight for the future of America over the next 43 days. Will you chip in $2.70?

Yes, I'll chip in $2.70 to help keep Donald Trump out of the White House.

Thanks for all you do.

Tonight's debate: Time to panic.

Is Trump going to somehow hold his ego in check, act like a normal human being, and thus soar over the insanely low expectations he's built for himself?

Dear MoveOn member,

I know exactly how you’re feeling.

The first debate is tonight, and you’re a ball of nerves. Your stomach’s in a knot. You’re compulsively checking the polls. And you're absolutely terrified by polling expert Nate Silver's new estimate that—if the election were held today—Donald Trump would have a 54.5% chance of winning.1

It’s called pre-debate anxiety, and it’s an affliction common among Democrats (and others) nationwide.

The good news: Although I’m not a doctor, I know how to help. Just click here to chip in $2.70 to MoveOn's get-out-the-vote campaign to defeat Trump, and you'll instantly feel better.

Let me explain.

That gnawing, fidget-inducing sense of barely-controlled panic about the debate? It has three causes.

The first is that you simply have no idea what’s going to happen. Is Trump going to somehow hold his ego in check, act like a normal human being, and thus soar over the insanely low expectations he’s built for himself? Or is he going to be a vicious, domineering jerk, pummeling Hillary Clinton with lies faster than she and the moderators can debunk them? Either one makes my blood pressure soar.

The second cause of pre-debate anxiety is that, whatever happens in the debate, you don’t know how it will play out. Remember the Republican primary debates? You’d watch and think, “Wow, Donald Trump is a repellent gasbag! It’s over!”—but then, somehow, his poll numbers would actually go up.

And then there’s the third cause of pre-debate anxiety: You don’t feel like you can do a thing about any of this.

That’s where MoveOn comes in. The only way to beat back those feelings is by doing something that will actually help. Something like, say, clicking here to donate $2.70 to help fuel MoveOn.org’s massive get-out-the-vote campaign to elect Clinton and stop Trump.

Look: No matter what happens in the debate, we know that this election could be close. Right now, polls are very tight in the swing states that will decide this election. We know that every vote will count—not just for control of the White House, but for control of the Senate and the direction of the Supreme Court as well. The stakes couldn’t be higher.

And we know something else, too: We know that the work that MoveOn members will be doing—every moment between now and when the polls close on November 8—could make all the difference. MoveOn is hiring 100 organizers to coordinate tens of thousands of volunteers to knock on more than a million doors. That’s the most effective voter turnout strategy I know of. But it’s not free. As we enter the home stretch, every dollar is critical.

We can’t control the debate. But it’s entirely up to us to decide whether MoveOn’s operation will have the resources it needs. It’s a two-for-one: Treat your pre-debate anxiety and make a difference at the same time. Can you contribute now?

Yes, I'll chip in $2.70 right now to keep Donald Trump out of the White House.

Thanks for all you do.

–Senator Al Franken

P.S. Remember: I won my first campaign by just 312 votes. Now imagine: If a few less folks had volunteered or donated to my first campaign, I wouldn’t be be a U.S. senator writing you this message.

Don’t wake up the day after Election Day wishing you’d done more. Click this link right now and chip in $2.70 to MoveOn’s proven, effective, get-out-the vote program.

Make this election about you, Eddie

Will you start a petition to the candidates competing for your vote, asking them to take strong stands on the issues that matter most to you?

Start a petition: Ask candidates to support your top issue

Will you start a petition to the candidates competing for your vote, asking them to take strong stands on the issues that matter most to you? Whether you're pushing a Democrat, Republican, or independent, your petition could gain steam and provide an avenue for others in your area to demand strong, smart stances from those who want to represent us.

Dear MoveOn member,

Elections matter. It's not just candidates who win or lose—issues can win or lose as well.

In the primary between Hillary Clinton and Bernie Sanders, progressive issues won. Both candidates came out for raising the minimum wage, for dramatic steps to make college more affordable, for tackling mass incarceration, for blocking the job-killing Trans-Pacific Partnership trade deal, and for taking the step of a Constitutional amendment to get big money out of politics.

Some of these ideas made it into the Democratic Party's platform for the first time, and continue to energize voters through the general election.

It's a reminder that now—during the campaign season—is a great time to push a progressive agenda. Candidates for Senate, the House of Representatives, state, and local office need to hear from us—and need to take the strong progressive stands that we demand of them.

Will you start a petition to the candidates competing for your vote, asking them to take strong stands on the issues that matter most to you? Whether you're pushing a Democrat, Republican, or independent, your petition could gain steam and provide an avenue for others in your area to demand strong, smart stances from those who want to represent us.

It's easy to start a petition with MoveOn—it's free, takes just 5 minutes, and we'll share it with other MoveOn members near you if you collect at least 10 signatures (assuming, of course, it's in line with MoveOn's progressive values.)

What I learned at Trump University

I'm Senator Al Franken, from the great state of Minnesota. Actually, make that Doctor Senator Al Franken. I recently graduated with a Ph.D. in right-wing megalomania from Trump University.

Dear MoveOn member,

I’m Senator Al Franken, from the great state of Minnesota. Actually, make that Doctor Senator Al Franken. I recently graduated with a Ph.D. in right-wing megalomania from Trump University.

Unfortunately, the $120,000 in tuition I spent at Trump U. was a huge waste—because it turns out that no training is necessary to discern the fact that Donald Trump is a delusional, power-hungry, narcissistic con man, but also because Trump U. was a total con to make money for Trump.

Seriously, though: You and I are awake inside of a nightmare—and if we don’t take action, this nightmare will be our reality for the next four years.

So it’s up to us (yes, ALL of us) to do everything in our power to stop Trump from breaking into our White House.

That means chipping in $2.70 right now to MoveOn to help defeat Donald Trump on Election Day. Will you join me?

Yes, I’m in. No Trump, no way.

Americans head to the voting booth in 44 days. And right now, on the eve of the first debate, polls have Trump neck and neck with Hillary Clinton.1 (Man, that's terrifying.)

A President Trump could in many ways erase the gains of President Obama’s presidency in his first hour in office. His advisers have already said that's just what he'll do—reneging support for the Paris climate deal, rolling back rules to prevent gun violence, restarting the Keystone XL pipeline, and so much more.2

If this makes you break out in a sweat, I have something to calm your nerves: MoveOn’s elections program. Here’s what’s happening.

  • Upwards of 100 incredible MoveOn field organizers on the ground in the exact states that we need to win ...
  • … Leveraging the efforts of tens of thousands of passionate MoveOn members who will have about one million face-to-face conversations with progressive swing voters at risk of not voting. (This is the real deal, human-to-human organizing that works.)
  • And an additional tens of thousands of phone calls MoveOn members all across the country will drive into swing states.

Neighbor-to-neighbor get-out-the-vote canvassing is the most damn effective way to influence elections, especially in highly-polarized times like these.3 MoveOn has a proven track record—the “secret sauce,” if you will. And MoveOn’s election campaign is a massive (and costly) program in the home stretch of what we’ll remember as the scariest election of our lifetime.

But MoveOn can’t do the work without your support. Are you with me? Click below to chip in $2.70, or whatever you can.

I'm in. No Trump, no way.

Thanks for all you do.

–Senator Al Franken

P.S. Look, I joked at the beginning of this email about my Ph.D. in megalomania. But this election is no laughing matter, and Trump’s no ordinary candidate. You’ve got to believe this guy could win. And if you don't act now—and chip in a little bit—you’re going to feel reeeeeaaaally bad on November 9 when you wake up in Trump’s America. So click here to chip in now.

The Movement for Black Lives platform

Will you take a moment to read the Movement for Black Lives Platform now, and then urge your friends to read it too?

Dear MoveOn member,

This week, footage was released of a man named Terence Crutcher being gunned down by Oklahoma police—once again forcing the crisis of police violence against Black Americans into sharp focus.1

In the video footage, Crutcher, whose car had broken down on the highway, appears to be cooperating with police—in fact, he even has his hands raised above his head—when he is stunned with a taser gun before being shot to death. The officer who killed Crutcher has now been charged with first-degree manslaughter—after days of outrage and an outpouring of attention and grief from across the country.2

At the same time, in North Carolina, the Charlotte community is reeling from the death of Keith Lamont Scott, also at the hands of police, who have not yet released their video of the killing.3

Already this year, at least 194 Black people have been killed by police.4
 
As America grapples with these deaths, there are real steps we, as a nation, could take to address systemic racism, mass incarceration, and the individuals and institutions that use racial division to propagate economic inequality. A number of innovative solutions were put forward in a recently published paper called "A Vision for Black Lives"—a detailed policy platform released by more than 50 organizations from across the country who are fueling the powerful grassroots movement that's responding to police violence, among other injustices.

This is much longer than a tweet or a quick graphic you can share, but it's an important read. Will you take a moment to read the Movement for Black Lives platform now, and then urge your friends to read it too?
 
If enough of us take a few minutes to read and share this, we can help fuel the national discussion about concrete solutions.

The Movement for Black Lives platform addresses criminal justice, reparations, investment and divestment, economic justice, community control, and political power. It's an important step toward finding real solutions that can address the many complicated factors that lead to police violence, such as the violence that ended Terence Crutcher's and Keith Lamont Scott's lives this week.
 
Without a countervailing vision, the systems that work against racial justice and equality only become more entrenched.

It's a long document, and not everyone will agree with every proposal or phrase. But reading it, discussing it, sharing it with our neighbors, and demanding that our candidates react to it could move us forward in a concrete way. And it will take all of us—of every race and with every nuanced and intersecting identity we bring—to work together to develop solutions.

Please, take a moment to read and share the Movement for Black Lives platform now, and let’s get to work.

Thanks for all you do.

Selfies trump Trump

There's never been a better time to remember why we're working our hearts out. Why we're giving it our all.

Dear MoveOn member,

Amid the constant barrage of hate and negativity from the Trump campaign, it can be natural to get frustrated, even angry. But that's all the more reason why this is a critical moment to remember what we are hopeful for in this election. Why we're giving it our all.

Because here's the thing: The real antidote to Trump's poisonous words and actions is not more anger; it's a clear and common vision of the better nation we can and must create together.

That's why MoveOn's kicking off our United For campaign. With MoveOn members coast to coast, we'll harness the energy and inspiration we all need to push through to Election Day (and every day after that).

Will you take a quick picture to share what you're voting for on Election Day? (It's really easy to participate. Just click this link to get started!)

We all know that the stakes surrounding this election couldn't be higher. In response, MoveOn members have gone all in on United Against Hate, a massive campaign to defeat Donald Trump and reject his hateful, bullying politics.

Helping Hillary Clinton defeat Donald Trump and helping Democrats take back the Senate is essential. And what's equally important are our efforts to lift up a progressive vision of what MoveOn members and our fellow Americans are united for—the values, ideals, hopes, and dreams that will motivate us to vote on Election Day and stay engaged in the necessary work of progressive social change beyond November.

Take a look at a few of the great photos we've already received! Then help inspire others by adding a photo with the reason you're voting.

United For

Have three minutes to help win this election and crowdsource a bold vision for our future?

Simply click here to get started.

After you click the link, you'll be able to download a sign and write in what you’re voting for. Then, take a photo with the sign and submit it using the link provided. It's as simple as that! (And if you don't have access to a printer, simply write your thoughts on a piece of paper or type them on a computer screen and snap a photo. That's great too.)

MoveOn members’ United For photos will:

  • flood Facebook and inspire people across the country to share their personal hopes and values and engage in the election,
  • allow us to create and distribute mosaics of submitted photos to show there’s more that unites us than divides us, and
  • help unify MoveOn members who share passions to work for progressive change—through petitions, social media, and other actions before and after the election.

We have 47 days until Election Day, which means we have a very short window of time to get progressives really excited about voting. We don’t have a moment to waste.

We know from polling data, including research that MoveOn commissioned, that many voters who could decide this election—millennials, single women, communities of color, immigrants, and the most passionate Bernie supporters—dislike and reject Donald Trump. But they're also looking for motivation to stay involved with the election beyond what we're united against. Let's help motivate them (and ourselves) by showing what we're united for.

Do you care about ending racism, protecting civil rights, ensuring equal pay, fighting for racial and economic equality, combating climate change, getting big money out of politics, strengthening public education, guaranteeing women's rights, and other progressive values?

Tell us what you’re voting for this November. Click the link to get started.

Thanks for all you do.

—Jo, Iram, Stephen, Matt, and the rest of the team

P.S. This project isn't asking WHOM you're voting for. As a community, we're uniting to defeat Donald Trump, elect Hillary Clinton, and elect MoveOn-endorsed Democrats to the Senate. United For is about WHAT we're voting for—the issues, values, and vision for the future that are motivating each of us to vote.

Want to support MoveOn's work? Senator Elizabeth Warren says, "I'm so enthusiastic about MoveOn's smart and targeted plan to hire a network of organizers in key battleground states to mobilize and train volunteers to knock on hundreds of thousands of doors. It's bold and ambitious—and exactly what is needed to help swing Senate races, resoundingly defeat Donald Trump, and give Democrats a fighting chance to take back the House."

We have a problem re: Sheldon Adelson

This week, Republican mega-donor and casino magnate Sheldon Adelson announced plans to spend more than $45 million—the largest investment by a billionaire in this election—to prevent Democrats from retaking the Senate.

Dear MoveOn member,

This week, Republican mega-donor and casino magnate Sheldon Adelson announced plans to spend more than $45 million—the largest investment by a billionaire in this election—to influence key Senate races and prevent Democrats from retaking the Senate. CNN calls it "a groundbreaking donation that could redefine the final two months of the 2016 campaign."1

Democrats—up and down the ticket—are in deep trouble. Unless people like you step in to fill the gap.

That's why I'm asking MoveOn members to do me a personal favor: make a contribution today to help elect four progressive women to the Senate—Tammy Duckworth in Illinois, Catherine Cortez-Masto in Nevada, Deborah Ross in North Carolina, and Katie McGinty in Pennsylvania.

They are running in four of the closest Senate races in the country right now—and if all four of these incredible women win, Democrats could take back the U.S. Senate.

Can I personally count on you?

Click here to chip in $3 to these MoveOn-endorsed candidates for Senate and to MoveOn's efforts to turn the Senate blue.

With the presidential race tightening each and every day, there has never been a more critical time for all of us to step up and help ensure a Democratic majority in the Senate.

Believe me, if Trump wins this election, you'll want Democrats in control of the U.S. Senate to stop his radical, bigoted agenda right in its tracks.

And if Hillary Clinton wins, she'll need Democratic allies in the Senate to advance progressive legislation like free college for working-class families.

Will you chip in $3 now and help elect four incredible Democratic women to the Senate? Just click here.

I've had the opportunity to get to know these terrific women, and I can promise you that they will be true champions for Democratic values in the Senate. Here's a little more information about each of them:

Deborah Ross in North Carolina. Deborah has dedicated her career to fighting for equal rights for all, both as the former head of the ACLU of North Carolina and as a North Carolina House Whip.2 Her commitment to ensuring equal pay for equal work, even when her colleagues in the State House fought back against her, is nothing short of inspiring.

Catherine Cortez-Masto in Nevada. Catherine has made it her mission to fight for the most vulnerable among us as Nevada's Attorney General by going up against Bank of America to fight deceptive practices and corruption. She's shown time and time again that she is willing to speak for the voiceless, even when it means standing up to the most powerful among us. And she'd be the first ever Latina senator.3

Katie McGinty in Pennsylvania. Katie has spent much of her career advising President Bill Clinton and Vice President Al Gore on the environment. Now, more than ever, we need more Democrats in the Senate who we can count on to trust science and fight corporate polluters to protect our environment.4

And when severe combat injuries made it impossible for my friend Tammy Duckworth in Illinois to continue serving on the battlefields in Iraq, she chose to serve the public in the halls of Congress.5 I've been honored to work with her on the fight for middle-class families as a member of the House, and I'd be thrilled to continue that work with her in the Senate.

We know that GOP mega-donors like Sheldon Adelson are going to invest big against these strong women candidates to ensure GOP victories in the Senate this November. But their money won't buy these elections—as long as you’re willing to join together with other MoveOn members to elect this incredible team.

Click here to invest $3—or whatever you can—in these incredible candidates, and help us take back the Senate.

Best wishes,

–Senator Dick Durbin

"Groundbreaking" donation to Trump

Donald Trump just shattered every record in the books for small donor fundraising by a Republican, raising $100 million with "staggering speed." GOP fundraising operatives are now calling him "the Republican Obama."

Dear MoveOn member,

Donald Trump just shattered every record on the books for small donor fundraising by a Republican, raising $100 million with "staggering speed."1 GOP fundraising operatives are calling him "the Republican Obama."2

And now—like a terrifying one-two punch—news just broke that Republican mega-donor Sheldon Adelson has pledged $45 million to Trump and down-ballot Republicans. CNN describes it as "a groundbreaking donation that could redefine the final two months of the 2016 campaign."3

With the presidential race virtually tied—and now a flood of money for Trump—we need your help more than ever.4 Will you make an emergency contribution of $2.70 right now to give us the resources to stop Trump?

Yes, I'll chip in now to help keep Donald Trump out of the White House.

This morning, data maven Nate Silver gave Trump a 44.5% chance of winning on Election Day—Trump's highest chances so far for the entire race.5

We know how to defeat Trump. It's by turning out voters in the battleground states that will decide the election. MoveOn is running a massive voter turnout program in swing states, with volunteers knocking on more than one million doors and talking directly to their neighbors about the election. In a year in which people are feeling increasingly cynical about candidates and elections, this direct personal contact—which study after study shows is the most effective way to move voters—is particularly important.6

We've built a sophisticated predictive model to pinpoint the progressive voters who are most likely to skip the polls in November—including millennials feeling alienated from the political process and other enthusiastic Bernie supporters who haven't decided whether to vote in November. As an independent, grassroots, progressive organization, MoveOn is better poised to talk to these voters than almost anyone else.

Will you chip in $2.70 now, so we have the resources to turn out voters in battleground states and keep Trump out of the White House?

Yes, I'll chip in now to help defeat Trump on Election Day.

Thanks for all you do.

–Vicki, Nick, Maria, Manny, and the rest of the team

P.S. On August 1, members of Donald Trump's transition team moved into an office building a block from the White House. There, they've been planning for his presidency, including what they're calling the First Day Project, when Trump will spend several hours on Inauguration Day signing a mountain of executive orders that "erases the Obama Presidency."7

Trump has already vowed that in his "first hour in office," he'd start to follow through on his core campaign promise to deport millions of people. He said, "Anyone who has entered the United States illegally is subject to deportation."8

If you think Trump doesn't really want to be president, or that he can't win, think again: Trump is neck-and-neck with Hillary Clinton in the polls, and his transition team is already preparing for him to be president. We must go-all out to stop this dangerous man now—while we still can. Will you help out?

Apply today for a Campaign Organizer or Deputy State Director position (or forward this to anyone you know who might be interested).

Terence Crutcher died for being Black

Will you sign and share this petition demanding that District Attorney Steve Kunzweil indict and fully investigate Officer Betty Shelby?

Dear MoveOn member,

Terence Crutcher, a father of four, was on his way home from class at Tulsa Community College when his car stalled in the middle of the road. Someone called the police. And instead of helping him, officers jumped out of their vehicles with guns drawn while helicopters circled in the sky filming the entire incident. Terence Crutcher needed help. But instead, he got a bullet.1

Will you sign and share this petition demanding District Attorney Steve Kunzweil indict and fully investigate Officer Betty Shelby, who shot and killed Terence Crutcher?

Indict Officer Betty Shelby for killing Terence Crutcher, an unarmed father of four, who posed no threat to her.

The people of Tulsa are counting on you to do the right thing and hold Tulsa police accountable. You must indict and fully investigate Officer Shelby for her role in the killing. Police are not above the law, and when someone kills someone, today's law states that they should be arrested—not at home on paid administrative leave.

Terence Crutcher died because he was Black. There's no other reason for someone to be killed by police when they are unarmed, walking slowly away with their hands up. He posed absolutely no threat, and yet the officers in the helicopter can be heard on video saying, "That looks like a bad dude, too. Probably on something."2

To make matters worse, after Officer Betty Shelby killed him, Tulsa Police let Terence Crutcher bleed out on the street. He died in the hospital a few hours later.3

This kind of continued disregard for Black life is enraging. Officer Betty Shelby killed someone. She should not be on administrative leave, sitting at home collecting a paycheck. Terence Crutcher's family and local activists in Tulsa are calling for Officer Shelby to be arrested and criminally charged.

Let's join them and make sure this officer is held accountable.

Click here to add your name to this petition, and then pass it along to your friends.

Thanks!

Trump lies. Polls don't.

While 93% of Trump supporters say they are absolutely certain to vote, only about 80% of Hillary's supporters are that committed to turning out in this now very tight race.

Dear MoveOn member,

I’m terrified that we will lose this election.

The New York Times reported on Thursday that "Mr. Trump and Mrs. Clinton are tied."1 And it gets worse: A recent Washington Post-ABC News poll shows that 93% of Trump supporters say they are absolutely certain to vote. But only about 80% of Hillary Clinton's supporters are that committed to turning out.2

This key gap—the lower likelihood that Democrats will make it to the polls—could hand the White House to a hate-baiting narcissist who’s wildly unfit to serve.

MoveOn’s election program is tackling this head-on with a massive, person-to-person get-out-the-vote effort in the key battleground states that will decide the presidential election and control of the Senate. Talking to voters to get out the vote is proven to swing elections.3 It’s what works. That’s why I’m writing you today with a personal request.

Will you join me and chip in $3—or whatever you can afford—right now? Just click here.

Think it’s hard to imagine waking up with Donald Trump as president? Don’t be so sure. Polling guru Nate Silver now says the race has become “highly competitive.”4 He notes that this race has “echoes of Brexit,” in which a right-wing populist surge forced Britain out of the European Union.5 And he believes that "Democrats aren't worried enough."6

And there are more troubling data points: The RealClearPolitics average of the national polls shows Clinton's lead down to less than 1 point.7 And that same average of state polls shows Trump has now pulled ahead in Florida, Ohio, Iowa, and Arizona—four crucial battleground states.8

Trump got the most primary votes of any Republican presidential candidate in history. And his supporters are remaining passionate. Meanwhile, despite the engaging and substantive contest between Bernie Sanders and Hillary Clinton, turnout for Democrats was down in the primary compared to 2008.9

So the reality is: Trump could win. And if you don't want to wake up on November 9, the day after the election, absolutely beside yourself that the impossible has happened—that Trump is president—and if you don’t want to pull out your hair thinking about what you could have done, then will you join me right now? Just click the link below.

Click here to chip in $3—or whatever you can afford—right now and help keep Donald Trump out of the White House.

MoveOn has planned a massive get-out-the-vote effort in the key battleground states that will decide the presidential election and control of the Senate.

But they still need to raise $275,000 to pull it off—to support the program with more than 100 organizers and to purchase technology, materials, and other infrastructure.

It's a big number, but this is a big election—and we can get there if we all chip in. That’s why I’m asking:

Please click here right now and chip in $3—or whatever you can—to keep Donald Trump out of the White House.

It’s hard to accept that Trump could win. But it really is terrifyingly possible. And it’s necessary to accept it. Because once we accept that Trump can win the election, we can also do something about it. And what’s the most effective thing we can do? Studies show that it’s person-to-person conversations about the stakes of the election.10 That isn’t cheap. But it’s necessary. And it works.

MoveOn needs to raise $275,000 more for their battleground state organizers in this 51-day sprint to the finish line. And they need your help to do it. That’s why I’m writing you today with this personal request.

Click here to chip in $3 and help MoveOn turn out progressive voters in the key battleground states that will decide the election.

Thanks for all you do.
