John, I wanted to make sure you heard the latest about our historic campaign for the U.S. Senate:

FIRST, I reached out to let you know we were outraised last quarter by two other candidates in this race who raised more than $10 million combined.

THEN, donations began pouring in from all across the country after our campaign received key endorsements from progressive leaders like Stacey Abrams, Pramila Jayapal, Ro Khanna, Ayanna Pressley and more!

NOW, we're picking up momentum in this race, but we're currently on track to fall nearly 16% short of our critical mid-month fundraising goal.

With experts saying I'm already at a fundraising disadvantage, we can't afford to miss a single goal. That's why I'm asking you to contribute $5 today, John. Because if every person reading this email chips in just $5 or more – whatever you can spare – we'll be on track to surpass our goal and take the lead in the race. 

So please, John, will you rush $5 or more right now to help me close this fundraising gap, win in California and build a progressive future for all of us?

Thank you for standing with me in this fight.
