They didn't count on us

We won a major grassroots victory in 2018.

As a result, 2019 has seen Donald Trump and Republican dig in. They're doubling down.

Needlessly shutting down the government over extremist, xenophobic positions? Check.

Lashing out at Robert Mueller's investigation because it's getting closer and closer to Trump himself? Check.

Opposing Democratic reforms to protect democracy and empower voters? Check.

And that's while they still are denying the realities of climate chaos, looking for any opportunity to roll back health care coverage, and attempting to stack courts across America with judicial extremists.

For all their work, they didn't count on us, on you.

2018 was a massive repudiation of Donald Trump and what he stands for. In the biggest midterm voter turnout in decades, over four million more people voted for Democrats than Republicans.

Pitch in $3 now. Let's take the next step together in 2019 and beyond.

A strong majority of the American people are rejecting the calls for hate and fear. We're a grassroots movement to reclaim and restore our nation, and, boy, is it making a difference.

Now we have an even bigger objective: win everywhere, take back the Senate, defeat Donald Trump, and take back the presidency.

Pitch in $3 before our end-of-month fundraising deadline. Let's take the next step together in 2019 and beyond.

Onward.
