| Hi Jason, I know you're currently receiving a barrage of messages asking for support, but with our September fundraising deadline just five days away, I want to share five critical reasons why your contribution is more important than ever.
1️⃣ ERPOs Save Lives. Research consistently shows that Extreme Risk Protection Orders (ERPOs), also known as red flag laws, are effective in preventing gun violence. Studies have found that for every 10–20 ERPOs issued, one suicide is prevented.
2️⃣ Election Day Is Just 40 Days Away. On November 4, Mainers will have the opportunity to vote Yes on 2, a measure that would establish ERPOs in our state. This law empowers family members and law enforcement to petition courts to temporarily remove firearms from individuals posing a significant danger to themselves or others.
3️⃣ Our First Ad Just Went Live. We've launched our first ad campaign to educate voters about the importance of ERPOs. It's crucial that this message reaches as many Mainers as possible before Election Day.
4️⃣ Our September Fundraising Deadline Is Critical. This is our final major fundraising deadline before the election, and we need to raise $25,000 from grassroots supporters like you.
5️⃣ We Can't Afford to Miss Our Goal. Every dollar will go directly to voter outreach efforts, ensuring our message reaches every corner of Maine. Falling short of our fundraising goal means fewer resources for voter education and outreach. We cannot afford to lose momentum in these final weeks. |
| Thank you for standing with us,
James Stretch
