The outrageous recall and impeachment schemes targeting nine Democratic governors could soon see millions of dollars in right-wing spending.
Organizers in Michigan have just announced a $5 million fundraising effort to get their recall against Gov. Gretchen Whitmer onto the ballot – and that’s just one state!
Top GOP state legislators and Trump-aligned activists are threatening recalls or impeachment against eight other Democratic governors in Kansas, Oregon, California, Maine, Minnesota, Illinois, Pennsylvania, and New Mexico. If Michigan’s right-wing recall makes it onto the ballot, millions more dollars could start pouring into those other efforts, too.Top GOP state legislators and Trump-aligned activists are threatening recalls or impeachment against eight other Democratic governors in Kansas, Oregon, California, Maine, Minnesota, Illinois, Pennsylvania, and New Mexico.

These recalls are nothing but blatant, partisan schemes to overturn the 2018 elections and put Trump’s allies in charge of as many states as possible. We can DEFEAT schemes like these if we step up immediately to knock GOP state legislators out of power across the country, but we have to move fast.
State Democrats like Gov. Whitmer have been pillars of strength during the global health crisis – delivering calm, steady leadership rooted in science and public health experience.
But Republican state legislators have decided they’d rather follow orders from their disinfectant-injecting president than listen to doctors and epidemiologists. They’re backing Trump at all costs, and they’re even willing to overturn the last election to prove it.
We CANNOT let Republican power grabs like these recalls prevail – but with millions of right-wing dollars potentially pouring in, we don’t have a much time to mobilize a response.
