Dear MoveOn member,
Ruth Bader Ginsburg was a trailblazer, a role model, and a friend.
As a young mom heading off to Rutgers Law School, I saw so few examples of female lawyers or law professors. But Ruth helped me learn to persist. She'd been teaching at Rutgers right before I got there. I'm forever grateful for her example—to me and to millions of young women—and for all she achieved for us in her dogged, lifelong pursuit of justice.
Now it's up to us to honor Ruth's remarkable life. Honor what she fought for. Honor how she never gave up, no matter how hard the battle.
Control of the Senate is up for grabs—and it's never been more critical.
In South Carolina, Jaime Harrison—a champion for working people—has defied all odds, come from behind, and is tied in the polls with Lindsey Graham. By fighting alongside Jaime, we fight back against the Senate Republicans who are trying to steal another Supreme Court seat and undermine our values for generations to come.
Your contribution today would help put Jaime Harrison over the top in this powerfully important Senate race. Will you chip in $3 now directly to Jaime Harrison's campaign? 100% of your donation will go to his campaign.
Lindsey Graham chairs the Judiciary Committee, so he oversees Supreme Court nominations.
He told us in 2016, "I want you to use my words against me: If there's a Republican president … and a vacancy occurs in the last year of the first term, you can say Lindsey Graham said, 'Let's let the next president, whoever it might be, make that nomination.'"1
And he promised in 2018, "If an opening comes in the last year of President Trump's term, and the primary process has started, we'll wait till the next election."2
But mere hours after Ruth passed, he said that he'll support Donald Trump "in any effort to move forward regarding the recent vacancy created by the passing of Justice Ginsburg."3
We can't let him get away with it. Use your anger. Use your pain. And use your power. Speak out. Make your voice heard.
If you're able to, please make a $3 donation directly to Jaime Harrison. Everything is on the line.
Born and raised in rural South Carolina, Jaime has lived the struggles so many in the Palmetto State face every single day. He has deep empathy, character, and integrity.
We need him to fight for our values in the Senate. We need him, not Lindsey Graham, voting to fill Ruth's Supreme Court seat.
We can do this, together. Side by side. The power is in our hands.
Please, if you can, donate $3 now to help elect Jaime Harrison and flip the Senate to Democrats.
Ruth Bader Ginsburg was a fighter. She never gave up. And neither do we. We persist.
Thanks for being a part of this.

Want to support MoveOn's work? As Robert Reich says, "No organization in America has a better track record of success in developing cutting-edge strategies to get out the vote and win elections than MoveOn." But it will take each of us doing our part to defeat Trump and flip the Senate!
Will you chip in to help combat right-wing lies, make sure every vote is counted, and win this election?
