Chop Wood, Carry NC 5/18!
Big NC event with Jamie Raskin (and me) next Tuesday!
Hey, Team NC,
I know you share my outrage at what the North Carolina legislature did this week on abortion. I know you want to see change in NC. I do, too, and I believe that it’s possible. I also believe that it’s closer than we think.
That’s why I’m co-chairing a Zoom fundraiser on Tuesday evening for some of the best grassroots groups in North Carolina—and I’d love you to come. The incomparable Jamie Raskin will speak, as will I and four important NC grassroots organization leaders. It’s going to be amazing.
And you can donate to it TODAY! Everyone who gives will get a Zoom link for the event on Tuesday morning.
Please give any amount to avenge women (and other people with uteruses) in North Carolina, fund grassroots organizing in NC, AND help Joe Biden win the state in 2024!
And if you can’t afford to give but want to come on Tuesday night simply email me back and tell me so. I will take care of you!
More soon, y’all.
Jess
Robert Hubbell just cited you in his newsletter tonight:
Join an event with Jamie Raskin and Jessica Craven to “Put North Carolina First!”
The GOP-controlled legislature in North Carolina just overrode Governor Roy Cooper’s veto of a ten-week abortion ban. That override was possible only because North Carolina has implemented outrageous partisan and racial gerrymandering that has given the GOP a super-majority in the NC legislature. “Put NC First,” a donor coalition, plans to challenge the GOP’s lock on the state legislature by knocking on three million doors for 2024 - triple the 2020 level (when Warnock and Ossoff won their upset victories).
Two of your favorite people, Rep. Jamie Raskin and Jessica Craven (of Chop Wood Carry Water) are helping Put NC First to raise funds to achieve their goal. Rep. Raskin is the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee's Vice-Chair for Organizing, and Jessica Craven is a force of nature! Join Rep. Raskin and Jessica on May 23, 7:30 PM to 8:30 PM Eastern, to hear how your donations be used to build power across North Carolina heading into 2024. Register here:
