John,

I just stepped off the debate stage here at my Alma Mater, Temple University! I showed Philadelphians exactly why I’m ready to be your Mayor, and I hope I made you proud.
 
Tonight, I explained my vision for Philadelphia clearly and plainly:

• I will recruit qualified police officers to make our communities safer;
• I will hold accountable those that break the law;
• I will invest in safe and successful learning environments for our children;
• I will make sustainability a priority and clean up our city for all to enjoy;
• I will champion small businesses and entrepreneurs that allow our communities to thrive.

The difference between me and my opponents? I have the experience and right leadership to actually get all it done.

But we are up against some tough opponents — some of whom are able to fund their own campaigns. We’re the only grassroots powered team in this race — the latest fundraising numbers proved it — but I need to pick up the pace if I’m going to stay competitive through May 16. Can you rush a donation, John?

I’m more than ready to go above and beyond to ensure Philadelphia has the leadership it deserves. But I need your help to keep this momentum up for the primary on May 16th!

It’s now or never,

Derek
