Donald Trump and the Republican National Committee have filed a lawsuit against me.

["I'm Governor Gretchen Whitmer and I'm asking for your help today."]( Hey there, it’s Gretchen Whitmer, Governor of Michigan. Donald Trump is suing me. Let me explain. Protecting and expanding access to the ballot box has been a critical part of my agenda as governor – and the work of Democratic governors across the country. That’s why I’ve signed legislation that makes it easier for voters to get to the polls, expands voter registration opportunities, protects poll workers from intimidation tactics, and more. But recently, Donald Trump and the Republican National Committee filed a lawsuit against me because of my work helping veterans and small business owners register to vote. I’ve always stood up for the right to vote, and I won’t stop now. [If you agree, will you add your name to stand with me in my fight to protect voting rights? The DGA and I need 50,000 supporters to sign on to our Voting Rights Petition before midnight – so we need everyone, including you, on board.]( [ADD YOUR NAME]( Every eligible Michigander who wants to vote deserves the opportunity to do so. Team, I’m disappointed that Donald Trump and his allies disagree, but I will always stand up for our fundamental rights – as will my fellow Democratic governors. Our democracy is stronger when people from all backgrounds and walks of life make their voices heard, and I’m committed to ensuring that every Michigander can exercise their right to vote. So please, help me protect the right to vote by adding your name today and standing up for voting rights. [Your signature today is critical in defending our fundamental freedoms. I’m counting on the support of this team to propel us. Please, will you take a few minutes and sign and add your name to our petition and stand against Donald Trump and the RNC? With just hours to go until our deadline, we need you to act now.](-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) [SIGN ON NOW]( With gratitude, Gretchen Whitmer Governor of Michigan [Gretchen Whitmer is the Governor of Michigan.
