Hey Emily, Here's what I've been telling people in Kentucky, where I'm grateful to serve as governor: If you feel like the current president is against you, I want you to know you have a governor who is with you. And that's what I'll say to you, too: Wherever you live, you may have a mayor, a member of Congress, or a city council member who's with you. And you certainly have a Democratic state party and the Democratic National Committee with you, too. You've got people fighting to move us all forward. Here in Kentucky, I've worked for progress on health care, public education, and creating good jobs for our people. But under this administration, all of those priorities are under attack, and I've learned two important lessons I'd like to share with you: First, that for all of us trying to serve our states, towns, or districts, our work is connected. What the Republican majority in the U.S. House and Senate do — like passing the largest cut to health care and food assistance in American history with Trump's budget — directly impacts families in my state. And second, I've learned that Democratic governors stand as our last line of defense against this administration. That's why it's so important that we elect a Democratic governor in Virginia and New Jersey this November. It's also critical we take back Congress. These fights matter, Emily. I'm doing all I can to protect our people, and I know my fellow Democrats are with me. I'm writing to you now because these lessons make clear the importance of a strong Democratic National Committee. Only the DNC works to support and elect Democrats at all levels of government, nationwide, every single year. That work is more important than it's ever been. Emily, the DNC is the place to chip in if you want to both support public servants fighting for our shared values now and strengthen Democratic power in the years to come.

  | Emily — We're reaching out to ask if you can split a contribution between the Missouri Democratic Party and the DNC today. But before we do, we want to tell you a little bit about how we'll put that donation to work. As you may have heard, Republicans recently began a special session in Missouri to support Donald Trump's gerrymandering power grab. Missouri Republicans completed the first step today by passing their rigged maps through the state House, and they'll now go to the state Senate. So, Emily, we're doing everything we can to support the Democrats on the ground fighting for our democracy: At the DNC, we're activating our organizing operation to pressure Republicans — supporting recruitment for rallies, contacting Missourians to attend town halls, and applying digital pressure. And Missouri Democrats are fighting back, including with a multi-day sit-in on the state House floor. Democrats are fighting fire with fire, because if Republicans succeed, it will be that much easier for Republicans to control Congress in 2026 — giving Trump two more years of power with no guardrails. Your donation today goes toward supporting the Democrats who are fighting back. So now that we've explained where your donation goes, we're hoping you'll join your fellow Democrats in donating to the DNC and the Missouri Democratic Party today. Use this link: Can Democrats defending free and fair elections in Missouri count on you to contribute $20 to the DNC and Missouri Democrats today? If you've stored your info with ActBlue, we'll process your split contribution between the Missouri Democratic Party and the Democratic National Committee instantly: A donation today — while the special session is still actively happening — will go further than any other time.

  | Emily, We wanted to make sure you saw this: Donald Trump isn't stopping at Texas. He and his allies in Republican-controlled states are working to redistrict Democrats out of every seat possible so they can keep their congressional majority. That would give us another two years of Trump with zero guardrails. We can't let it happen. That's why Democrats are fighting fire with fire: In California, Democrats are looking to counter Republicans' moves by redrawing their own maps, and Democrats in other states are getting ready for action. Winning this fight is going to take all of us. Here at the DNC, we're doubling down on our organizing efforts to reach voters in California, Texas, and beyond. Because the ONLY way we'll take back Congress is if we reach as many voters as we possibly can. We're holding Trump accountable in court for his attacks on our voting rights, and we're investing in every state Democratic party to ensure that across the country, Democrats have the resources they need to elect leaders who will check Trump's power. Taking action to stop Trump's plan to steal elections is urgent, and we need all the support we can get. If this work is important to you, please consider chipping in $3 to the DNC today and help us fund our work nationwide.
