This was the post on the MAYDAY.US Facebook yesterday:
This is copied and pasted from the link in that post:
We're here to Fight
A well-connected few are pumping billions of dollars to hijack your government. Contribute now to take back our Republic.
Fight against corruption in the 2016 elections.
Contribute now. We need you. We need to build power so we can demand that politicians do something about how private money is destroying democracy.
At MAYDAY.US, we believe that the root issue in American democratic failure is the way politicians raise money. Every other issue is connected to privately financed campaigns.
We are up against some of the most powerful anti-democratic forces in the world, and need people power to fight.
Public elections are a feminist issue. They are a race issue. They are a democracy issue. They are a power issue.
Show your power and contribute.
“Zephyr is a rising star in our movement who spearheaded a bold campaign against the establishment in her bid for Governor of New York. I first met her when she entered politics as the director of online organizing for Howard Dean’s 2004 presidential campaign. That campaign showed the world the potential for online organizing. A proven fighter with a spirit that is not afraid, Zephyr is an extraordinary leader for MAYDAY and the entire reform movement. This change couldn’t make me happier. I will of course remain deeply involved with MAYDAY.US, serving on its board and as Zephyr’s minion. But we need you as well.”
“Corruption is the issue hiding in plain sight in the 2016 campaign. Together, we’ll continue the MAYDAY.US spirit of dreaming big, trying new things, and striking at the root of corruption with large, unafraid actions. With all hands on deck, we can overcome legalized bribery and achieve political equality. We’re asking you to re-commit. Your donation will ensure we can address a big problem with bold action.”
