Breaking: Democratic Committees, Leaders Schumer and Jeffries File Lawsuit to Block Trump's Illegal Voter Suppression Executive Order Jason, I'm Andie, the DNC's General Counsel — which means it's my job to oversee all legal issues related to the Party's work. This means that in addition to helping elect Democrats up and down the ballot, I'm in charge of holding Republicans accountable to the Constitution. Trump recently signed an executive order that attempts to suppress voters, upend voter registration systems, stop states from counting eligible mail ballots, and withhold federal funding from dozens of states in the process. Democrats have one message for him: We'll see you in court. The DNC, along with other Democratic committees and key Democratic leaders, has filed a lawsuit against President Trump, DOGE, and other departments within the Trump administration to block Trump's unconstitutional order. Trump's order not only violates multiple federal laws but also attacks the right to vote by mail and makes it harder for married women who have changed their names and military members to have their votes count. The order also allows DOGE to access sensitive personal information and makes it harder for states to run their own free and fair elections. It's anti-American, and Democrats are using every tool at our disposal — including taking Trump to court — to stop this power-grab that undermines our democracy. Thank you again for your support as we fight back against Trump to protect our democracy. I'll keep you posted. Andie Andrea Levien

  | Jason, I just stepped off the stage in Nashville, where I joined an incredible crowd of folks who showed up — even though their Republican member of Congress won't. When elected officials hide from their constituents, it's not just cowardly — it's dangerous. It's how billionaires and giant corporations get away with rigging the system, while working families get left behind. Today, I talked with folks in Nashville about what's at stake: the GOP's plan to extend Trump's tax handouts for the ultra-rich; devastating cuts to Medicaid, Social Security, and public education; and the urgent need to elect Democrats who will fight for working families — not billionaires. These town halls are important, and they're a critical piece of how we win in 2025 and beyond — by organizing everywhere, including in deep-red districts where Republicans think no one's paying attention. But we can't do it without you. Can you chip in $3 right now to help the DNC expand these People's Town Halls and elect Democrats who actually show up? If you've stored your info with ActBlue, we'll process your contribution instantly. Let's be clear: Republican politicians are counting on silence. On apathy. On you giving up. But if you were in the room with us in Nashville today — if you saw the energy, the grit, the determination — you'd know what I know: We are not giving up. We are just getting started. Thanks for being in this fight with me, Elizabeth Elizabeth Warren

| Jason — This moment demands a Democratic Party that can do two things: Mobilize and organize against Trump, Elon Musk, and their allies in Congress' harmful policies. Build the infrastructure we'll need to elect Democrats at all levels of government — leaders who will check Trump's power in their cities, districts, and states. With your help, that's exactly what we're doing. We're holding People's Town Halls across the country, showing up in districts where Republican representatives won't. We're giving everyone an opportunity — regardless of how they voted — to show up and make their voice heard. At the same time, we're investing in state parties and in building a robust on-the-ground organizing operation. We're already seeing it pay off: Democrats have massively overperformed in nearly every special election this year. In Wisconsin, voters rejected a MAGA candidate backed by Elon Musk, who had poured tens of millions of dollars into the race. In Pennsylvania, we recently flipped a district that went to Trump by 15 points in 2024. In Florida, Democrats massively overperformed our 2024 performance — a huge warning sign for Republicans. The work we are doing right now is not easy. But it's absolutely essential. There has never been a more important time to join the fight, and it's going to take all of us stepping up to check Trump and his administration at every turn while working to elect Democrats who will do the same. That's why we're coming to you today, Jason. Can we count on you to pitch in a $3 donation today to the DNC to keep up this momentum? If you've stored your info with ActBlue, we'll process your contribution instantly. Thank you for taking action. The Democrats

| Jason, Right now, it's our responsibility as Democrats to challenge Trump's lies, confront his reckless agenda, and communicate to voters all over the country that we can offer a better alternative. With your help, that's exactly what we're doing — take a look: Breaking: DNC Chair Ken Martin Launches "People's Cabinet" to Fiercely Counter Trump Administration Chaos and Lies Today, the DNC announced a new project: The People's Cabinet. This project brings together qualified policy experts, national and local leaders, and voices from our communities — people who will cut through the lies and speak directly to Americans about the reality of what the Trump administration is doing. The People's Cabinet will include a wide array of national, state, and local experts on the economy, health care, working families and communities, public safety, and national security and foreign policy — including former Labor Secretary and co-founder of Inequality Media Civic Action Robert Reich, former Acting Labor Secretary Julie Su, former Wisconsin Lieutenant Governor Mandela Barnes, and more. In order to reach as many people as possible and meet them where they are, the Cabinet will conduct briefings with media and coalition partners, speak directly with Americans at town halls, produce digital content to reach people across the platforms where they get their news, engage in rapid response to counter the lies and disinformation from the Trump Administration, and serve as thought leaders for the Democratic ecosystem on effective strategy and tactics in countering the worst of the Republican agenda. We heard from thousands of people earlier this year that you want to see Democrats aggressively countering Trump, while reaching voters where they are, year-round. That's exactly what we're working to do. This work is only possible with your help. If initiatives like these are important to you, we hope you'll consider pitching in a few dollars to help fund the work we're doing: CONTRIBUTE $3 Thank you, and we'll have more updates to share soon.

| Jason — In just two months, Donald Trump has: And now he's refusing to rule out seeking a third term as president. Our Constitution forbids presidents from running for more than two terms, but Donald Trump has repeatedly entertained the idea. We need to check his power, Jason — and we need to do it now. That's why Democrats are digging deep and fighting back. We're hosting town halls across the country. We're investing in state parties and have achieved Democratic overperformances in nearly every special election so far this year. And this is just the beginning. We are committed to building the long-term infrastructure we'll need to elect Democrats at every level of government — leaders who will check Trump's power in their cities, districts, and states, and prevent Trump's threat of a third term from becoming our reality. That's why we're reaching out today. Your donation today will be another dollar we can invest in state parties all over the country, in organizing against Trump's worst policies, and ultimately in winning back Congress in 2026 and the White House in 2028. Millions of us — all over the country — voted against Trump's agenda and are committed to fighting back. Will you join us by making a $3 donation to the DNC today?

| Jason, I want to share a quick update on this week's special elections in Wisconsin and Florida: -
In Wisconsin, Judge Susan Crawford defeated the Elon Musk-backed candidate in a landslide, despite Musk pouring tens of millions of dollars into the race. This race determined control of the Wisconsin Supreme Court, which is expected to decide soon on a total abortion ban. The stakes couldn't have been any higher and Musk did everything he could to sway the court his way. Voters rejected him. -
In Florida, Democrats historically over-performed — with Gay Valimont claiming the best performance from a Democrat in Florida's 1st District this century, and Josh Weil massively over-performing in a Trump +30 district. These races proved what we've seen over and over again this year: people are already fed up with Trump's chaos agenda and they're voting for a change. That's why Democrats have won or over-performed in nearly every special election race this year, including this week's. Supporters like you have helped us channel the energy we're seeing on the ground. The DNC invested in both Wisconsin and Florida — and thousands of people pitched in in response to emails just like this one, helping raise hundreds of thousands of dollars for both states' parties. And we're just getting started, Jason. We're holding People's Town Halls in every state in the country, giving an opportunity for Americans — regardless of how they voted — to speak out about what is happening right now in Washington and how it personally affects them. We're ratcheting up our fight against Trump in the courts to stop his hostile takeover of the FEC — America's federal elections watchdog — and we've sued Donald Trump and DOGE for their attacks on voting rights and attempts to access sensitive voter information. And of course, we're working to win more and more races ahead of the midterms next year. We've gained huge momentum already by winning in places like Wisconsin and Pennsylvania and now we've got our eyes set on the Virginia and New Jersey gubernatorial races in November. Thank you for everything you're doing to help support Democrats in this fight. I hope you're as ready as I am to keep working, and I'll have more updates to share soon. Ken Ken Martin
