John -

I know you’ve heard from us a few times about tonight’s deadline, so I wanted to take a moment to breakdown why these emails are so important for our campaign.

Henry Cuellar and right-wing special interests are collectively spending almost $1.5 million on TV ads to try to silence our movement of working people.

It’s up to us to make sure they cannot drown us out. We’re working hard to make sure we have the resources we need to compete, but we’re doing it the right way.

I’m not taking a dime of corporate PAC money. Instead, we’ve built a true grassroots campaign. Our movement is funded by working people chipping in whatever they can afford — at an average of just $34.

And here’s what you may not know: the majority of our donations come in response to emails like this one. People like you chipping in whatever they can afford, whenever they can afford to. That all adds up in a major way.

So that’s why I need to ask once more before tonight’s deadline:

Can you make a $3 donation to our campaign ahead of our final FEC deadline before the primary? I would not ask if it was not important.

Grassroots donations mostly in response to emails like this are how we built this movement from the start, and we’re going to follow that model all the way to victory on March 3.

Thank you for being part of this, John.

Unidos en la lucha,
