Dear fellow MoveOn member,
Resistance is more than a slogan—it’s a movement. A people-powered movement supported and fueled by countless Americans, including millions of MoveOn members like you.
This Tuesday, February 28, Donald Trump will address a joint session of Congress for the first time. His speechwriter is Stephen Miller, who helped draft the Muslim ban and who has championed discriminatory and harmful policies. We can expect that this speech will be filled with more of the same prejudiced agenda that undermines our shared values and equality. But, frankly, it doesn't matter what Trump says on Tuesday—his actions in his first 30 days in office speak for themselves.
This is why MoveOn is partnering with close friends and allies of mine to organize a rally—called "Resistance Address: Defending American Values in a Time of Moral Crisis"—that will take place outside the White House before Trump gives his speech to Congress.
We will continue to resist, but MoveOn needs your support to fuel the resistance with more events like Tuesday night's "Resistance Address," and all of the actions and tactics we need to keep building the resistance. Can you pitch in $5 a month?
Yes, I'll pitch in monthly and help MoveOn keep growing the resistance.
No, I'm sorry, I can't make a monthly donation.
Tuesday's rally will feature people and speakers from organizations who represent the most vulnerable communities, those under attack from the Trump administration. At Tuesday's rally, we will talk about standing up for our moral values and not giving in to the oppression manifested in one hateful Trump administration executive order after another.
After Tuesday, as we continue to march, stand united, and fight back, we need groups like MoveOn to help channel and guide this grassroots resistance—every day, every week, every month, and onward, in the long struggle ahead.
Thanks for all you do.
–Mark

Want to support MoveOn's work? The MoveOn community will work every moment, day by day and year by year, to resist Trump's agenda, contain the damage, defeat hate with love, and begin the process of swinging the nation's pendulum back toward sanity, decency, and the kind of future that we must never give up on. Will you stand with MoveOn?
No, I'm sorry, I can't make a monthly donation.
