This has real implications for the kind of campaign we can run.
We're coming up on our end-of-quarter fundraising deadline on Friday. Here's why that's important, John:
- This isn't like most of our fundraising deadlines, because after June 30, we'll be reporting our numbers to the Federal Election Commission for the public to see.
- Fundraising reports are one of the MAIN ways opponents analyze other campaigns. It tells them how much cash someone has, if they have any staff members, and how many donations they're bringing in from supporters.
- We already have a GOP opponent, so we have to take this seriously. Super PACs will be looking at our FEC report to determine their budget and timeline for attack ads against Summer.
John, the stakes are high, so we can't risk falling short of our goal to raise $25,000 by Friday's deadline. With just two days until our deadline, will you rush a $5 donation now to support Summer's work to pass progressive legislation that prioritizes the change everyday families need?

Reporters are already reaching out to ask about our FEC report, but this isn't just about showing our strength. Whether or not we hit our $25,000 goal will have real implications for the campaign we run — resources from emails like this one go directly to organizing PA-12 and reaching voters.
Bringing in thousands of small-dollar donations from folks like you — without taking a cent from corporate super PACs — is how we will re-elect Summer next November. Remember, Summer runs a 100% people-powered campaign because she's fighting for the people — not profits.
The resources we bring in now will determine the race we can run next year, so we're asking again:
Will you chip in right now to make sure we don't fall short of our $25,000 goal? Time is running out, but we trust that grassroots supporters like you will help us pull this off in time.
Let's do this together,
Team Summer
