Goal thermometer

With the coronavirus pandemic bearing down on us and the nation in dire need of urgent congressional action, what did Mitch McConnell do? He sent the Senate home and went on vacation for a long weekend in Kentucky, accompanied by none other than Brett Kavanaugh.


While McConnell dallied—it took him five days to pass the House’s first coronavirus bill—the number of sick and dead grew, and our ability to flatten the all-important curve shrank. But McConnell doesn’t care: He was too busy swearing in another unqualified Trump judge.


That’s why we must have new leadership in the Senate as soon as possible, and we can start in North Carolina by electing Army veteran Cal Cunningham.


Cunningham is gunning for Republican Thom Tillis, a slavish Trump sycophant and eager McConnell lackey who won his first term six years ago by a margin of just 1.6%. In swingy North Carolina, which will hold competitive races up and down the ballot this fall, he’s extremely vulnerable.


That’s why Republicans are going to spend tens of millions of dollars in dark money and gin up every lie they can in order to save Tillis. It’s going to be ugly and expensive.


And that’s where we come in. They have their Koch brothers, but we have people power. Don’t think that’s enough? Just look at how much GOP ass we—the grassroots—kicked in 2018. We can do it again.


If Democrats take back the White House this fall, we need to gain three seats to win control of the Senate, and North Carolina is one of our top targets. Few races will be more important than this one, and few candidates more worthy of your support. Republicans are literally killing us with their malfeasance. They must be stopped. Now is your chance.


Please give $3 now to win back the Senate with Cal Cunningham!
