John,

Jim Jordan’s speakership candidacy does not bode well for our democracy, our country, or the American people.

The Speaker controls business in the House of Representatives and is second in line to succeed the President. We simply can’t allow this powerful position to be filled by a full-blown extremist like Jordan, who promoted dangerous conspiracy theories and actively sought to overturn a presidential election.

To make matters worse, look at his record on Social Security:

• He led a plan to raise the retirement age to 70, the equivalent of a 20% benefit cut
• He voted to cut the Social Security administration’s funding by 30%
• He voted to create a closed door commission to slash benefits

John, our efforts to stop Jordan are paying off: he just lost his second speakership vote with even fewer supporters than last time. But we need to keep up the pressure with more votes likely to come.

I won’t stop fighting back against extremism in Congress, but I can’t do it alone. Can you rush a donation of $10 right now to help me keep up the fight against radicals like Jim Jordan?

The fight to protect our democracy, our fundamental rights, and programs like Medicare and Social Security just got even more urgent.

Will you chip in $10 right now to help us stand up for our fundamental freedoms and values?

We’re in this together, John.
