SUMMARY:Race for the Robes with Richard Kind!
DESCRIPTION:Pennsylvania’s retention elections to renew Supreme Court justices’ 10-year terms are normally quiet and uneventful. Not this year. \n\n\n\nRepublican operatives are mobilizing voters to unseat three Democratic justices who are up for renewal and change the majority from “D” to “R.” (PA elects justices for 10-year terms in partisan elections\, and terms are renewed through “Yes/No” votes.) \n\n\n\nJoin Comedian Richard Kind (Mad About You) for a Fundraiser to Fight Back \n\n\n\nLehigh County Democratic Committee\, MA Flip PA\, and Swing Blue Alliance are hosting a Zoom Fundraiser on Wednesday\, August 27\, 7-8 ET\, to help save the Democratic majority and counter the MAGA billionaires spending millions to buy the court. We need to raise $34\,000 for digital billboards on major highways in Lehigh County and Allentown\, Pennsylvania; run ads on a Spanish language radio station in Allentown; and hold a weekly phone bank to encourage voters to vote “Yes!” to retain these Democratic Justices. \n\n\n\nThe stakes are high! The Supreme Court makes decisions on issues like redistricting\, abortion access\, environmental protection\, and working conditions. Join comedian Richard Kind (Curb Your Enthusiasm\, Mad About You\, A Serious Man)\, Conor Lamb\, a former Pennsylvania US Representative\, and Malcolm Kenyatta\, State Representative from Philadelphia and National Democratic Committee Vice Chair\, and others\, for an evening to rally support and stop Republicans from taking over the Pennsylvania Supreme Court. \n\n\n\n\nSign up for zoom link\n\n\n\nMake a donation directly\n\n\n\n\nLet’s support our PA friends and protect this Democratic majority in an essential swing state!   \n\n\n\nHelp fund this billboard:
