North Carolina’s open Senate seat

Our best method to defeat the GOP is by electing pro-democracy Democrats to lead us forward. Cheri Beasley fits the bill perfectly. [Adam Schiff for Congress]( {NAME}, if you need any indication of how far to the right Trump has dragged the Republican Party, consider for a moment the results of last night’s Senate primary in North Carolina. Pat McCrory, the former GOP governor running for Senate, lost. Bear in mind, his term included: - Signing a transphobic “bathroom bill” into law - Banning sanctuary cities - Cutting emergency food assistance for undocumented people - Reducing unemployment benefits - Restricting abortion - And failing to concede the election he lost in 2016 until nearly a month later And yet, that guy LOST... because Republicans labeled him as “too liberal” and a “RINO.” No, I’m not kidding. Instead, Trump’s MAGA base nominated his handpicked candidate, House Freedom Caucus member and local gun store owner Rep. Ted Budd, to run against Democratic nominee Cheri Beasley.

And polling has her neck-and-neck with the Republican in this race. Not only that, Cheri has pledged her support for abolishing the filibuster so that we can codify Roe v. Wade, protect voting rights, and defend our democracy. You know the stakes. Both our House and Senate majorities are on the line. Ever since Donald Trump left office, Kevin McCarthy and Mitch McConnell have embraced the far-right and invested hundreds of millions of dollars to gain control of Congress. Trump has already rallied voters in North Carolina, attacking me personally to rouse them into a fury, and there’s no doubt he’ll be back in the coming months to repeatedly attack Cheri’s campaign. Ensuring she has the resources to respond to Trump’s attacks and McConnell’s Super PAC is crucial to helping her win — that’s why today needs to be a big day for her campaign.
