Received this e-mail today from U.S. Senator Elizabeth Warren (D. MA) on behalf of Democracy for America in support of Stacey Abrams (D. GA) gubernatorial campaign:
Today, I am joining my friends at Democracy for America to ask you to chip in to help make Stacey Abrams the next governor of Georgia.
Here's why:
Like me, Stacey didn’t grow up wealthy or well-connected. She’s the daughter of a librarian and a shipyard worker, and she knows what it means to have to work hard to get ahead.
Maybe that’s why Stacey has never shied away from a tough fight. When she served as the top Democrat in the Georgia House, she fought to level the playing field for women, students, seniors, veterans, and working people.
I know that as governor, Stacey Abrams will build a Georgia where more families like yours can get ahead. Please, stand with me and DFA -- chip in $3 to help Stacey Abrams fight for working families.
I was already a grandmother when I decided to run for the U.S. Senate for the first time. I had never run for anything before, but I knew I had to step up and fight on behalf of the issues that I cared about and working families like the one I grew up in.
Stacey Abrams shares that commitment for Georgia, and she's got a real shot at winning this thing.
But she can't do it alone. It's going to take strong grassroots support to stand up to Georgia's powerful Republican establishment and defeat the powerful interests that are sure to line up against us.
Will you chip in $3 and be a part of this fight? Stacey Abrams can become Georgia’s governor if supporters like you are all in, right now.
I'm all in for Stacey Abrams because she fights from the heart. She has the ability to bring feuding parties to the table to get good done, but she's not afraid to stand firm in her values. And you can bet that Governor Abrams will always put you and your family first.
Team Abrams relies on grassroots supporters like you to fund the hard work it’ll take to win in November – knocking on doors, reaching out to voters, and spreading Stacey’s message to every corner of the state. When we all work together for progress, everyone wins.
Thanks for fighting with us,
Elizabeth
