We’re the next front on gun control.

David,

Sadly, we’ve seen this scenario play out before: 

A mass shooting occurs. Our do-nothing President caves into the gun lobby. The Republican-controlled Senate refuses to act. While families and communities mourn their lost ones, politicians offer thoughts and prayers -- but nothing changes.

David, Sadly, we’ve seen this scenario play out before:  A mass shooting occurs. Our do-nothing President caves into the gun lobby. The Republican-controlled Senate refuses to act. While families and communities mourn their lost ones, politicians offer thoughts and prayers -- but nothing changes. Virginia can be different. The New York Times  had this headline recently: “The Next Front in the Fight Over Gun Control? Virginia.”  The article highlights how our November election will be the first test of gun rights and gun safety measures as a voting issue, particularly if Democrats take control of the General Assembly. You can read the entire article by clicking here. David, whether it’s gun safety, making health care affordable and accessible, protecting our civil liberties, ensuring a woman’s reproductive freedom, or investing in high-quality public education, Virginia can set the pace for the rest of the country in 2019.   At WinVirginia, we’re working around the clock to train, support, and elect Democrats to the General Assembly from districts in every corner of the Commonwealth. We know what’s at stake in November -- not just for Virginia, but for the entire nation. Thanks for your support. Team WinVirginia DONATE

Will you take a moment to share your priorities? STACEY ABRAMS.

DAVID, I know you’re as upset as I am by what’s happening across the country right now.

Republicans are pushing Donald Trump’s agenda forward and shamelessly throwing our democratic norms out the window. I should know – when I ran for governor in Georgia in 2018, I faced a nearly impossible task: overcoming systematic voter suppression from a Republican Party that silenced too many voices.

That’s why I’m reaching out today: The future of our country depends on Democrats winning as many races in as many states as we can in 2019 and 2020. We’re working relentlessly to combat voter suppression and win, but I need top supporters like you to help us create an ambitious plan today.

Will you take a moment to share your priorities?

Experts all agree: Democrats could win big – but only if we lay the groundwork early to defeat Donald Trump and the Republicans riding on his coattails. If we lose, we’ll be locked out of redistricting – and power – for at least a decade.

We know that when Democrats register voters, get people to the polls and flip red states blue, we make historic gains. To make that happen this cycle, to win in every corner of the map, up and down the ballot, we need to hear from you right now:

Please complete the official Democratic Outreach Survey to inform our strategy and make sure Democrats win.

The next elections are about us. They’re our chance to fix what is broken and to call out Republicans’ misdeeds and failed policies. That’s why, on election night, I want to know every grassroots supporter has done everything they can to make sure Democrats restore democracy to our country.

We can’t let this fight pass us by, not after we’ve seen what the GOP will do to win.

I’m counting on you to make it happen, DAVID.

Putting a stop to Trump's cruel immigration policies. STATE OF WASHINGTON ATTORNEY GENERAL BOB FERGUSON.

David, After I led a coalition of 18 states challenging the Trump administration’s cruel family separation policy more than a year ago, a federal judge ordered the Trump administration to immediately stop separating families and reunite those who had been separated. But as we have learned -- President Trump is still separating families at the border. “The ACLU said that more than 900 parents and children, including babies, have been separated by U.S. border authorities since U.S. District Judge Dana M. Sabraw... ordered the government to reunite more than 2,700 children with their parents more than a year ago.” [NPR, July 30, 2019] President Trump continually demonstrates a blatant disregard for judicial orders and for basic human rights. The president’s unconstitutional and inhumane acts at our border keep getting worse. People’s lives are at stake. The Trump administration has created a humanitarian crisis at the border -- by separating families, keeping children in cages, and allowing inhumane, cruel conditions in detention centers. Immigrant children have been held for weeks without access to basic necessities like clean water, toothbrushes, showers, soap or a place to sleep. President Trump’s reckless policies only exacerbate the suffering of people who come here fleeing violence, seeking refuge, and trying to build a better life. This is not what America stands for. President Trump’s anti-immigrant agenda needs to be stopped, and Congress has been unable and unwilling to take action. But Democratic attorneys general are stepping up to take on Trump’s unconstitutional immigration policies -- and we’re winning. Our team is still in court fighting to hold the Trump administration accountable to the law and put an end once and for all to family separations. This fight isn’t over. I won’t stop challenging the president until we end this callous, inhumane, and un-American policy. Bob DONATE
