I believe that these are the types of fights our elected leaders should be taking on

Big problems require big solutions. [John Fetterman]( {NAME}, I first ran for office because I’d studied how the system was rigged against hardworking people, and I wanted to do something about it. I’m running for re-election because while we’ve made tremendous progress together, we’ve still got some serious challenges ahead of us. The governor of Idaho recently signed an extreme “abortion trafficking” bill into law — restricting residents from traveling for abortions in states where it's legal. Two Black lawmakers in Tennessee were expelled from the state House last month for peacefully protesting against gun violence following a horrific mass shooting in Nashville. Anti-LGBTQ+ legislation is popping up all over, threatening the right to health care, expression, and safety for trans, gender-nonconforming, and nonbinary people. Our judiciary system has been hijacked by the far-right, and these institutions continue to give the public more and more reason to lose trust. The more recent examples? I could bring up how a federal judge in Texas ruled to reverse the FDA’s approval of mifepristone — ​​one of the most common methods of abortion. Or, I could go with the recent revelation that Justice Clarence Thomas has been accepting undisclosed luxury trips and other favors from GOP megadonor Harlan Crow. Look: I won’t sugarcoat what we’re up against. Our values and rights are under siege from powerful interests. The gun lobby. Anti-abortion radicals. Big Pharma. Fossil fuel giants. Right-wing extremists. All using their deep pockets to block change. All hoping that we’ll get so frustrated we just tune out. Yeah, right. [I’m going to keep doing everything in my power to stand up to these extremists and fight for the bold, systemic change we need to protect our democracy and our values. If you’re able to, please split a donation of $5 between me and John Fetterman to help continue this fight.]( [Donate »]( Big problems require big solutions, and I’m in this fight all the way. We can end the filibuster, pass a national law protecting abortion rights across the country, and expand the Supreme Court to rebalance this hijacked institution and prevent more damage from being done. We can pass my Judicial Ethics and Anti-Corruption Act to give Americans confidence that their judges are held to the highest ethical standards and are free from conflicts of interest. We can continue mobilizing across the country and provide resources for critical local downballot races, ensuring that pro-democracy candidates are leading the charge to protect our rights and election integrity in the states. Real change doesn't just happen because of decisions made in Washington. It happens because people all across the country get into the fight — pushing from the outside while elected officials work on the inside. I'll keep up the fight in the Senate, but I'm counting on you to stay in the fight, too. [If you believe that these are the types of fights our elected leaders should be taking on, please pitch in $5 to support my re-election campaign and John Fetterman to fuel this fight. I’m so grateful for your support.]( Thanks for being a part of this, {NAME}, Elizabeth [Donate »]( [Like on Facebook]( [Follow on Twitter]( [Follow on Instagram]( Email us: info@johnfetterman.com This email was sent to [{EMAIL}](#). Email is the most important way we keep in touch with people like you, so thank you for reading to the end.
