We know these emails can be quite pesky at times, John — heck, the last thing we want to do is ask you for your hard-earned money. But the truth is, these messages make a significant difference for our team.

It may not be obvious, but a large part of our fundraising each month comes from contributions to emails just like this one.

Your $5 here and $10 there goes directly toward powering our efforts to fight GOP extremism, organize voters year-round, run digital ads, and hire more staff so we can make sure voters know about the great work Lauren is doing.

With three right-wing opponents gearing up to attack our campaign, we’ll need your support to build the resources needed to fight them off and defend Lauren’s strong record. That’s why we send these emails around every so often and why your response to them is so important.

So John, will you consider adding a contribution of just $5 or more before our end-of-month deadline expires tomorrow at midnight? Anything you can give will make a significant difference.

If you've saved your payment information with ActBlue Express, your donation will go through immediately:

Thank you so much for your support.
