This is what the political revolution is all about

Friends -

No president, not Bernie Sanders, not the greatest president you could possibly imagine can take on the billionaire class of this country alone. And that is because change never happens from the top down, it always occurs from the bottom up.

So today, I want to do something that most presidential campaigns would not do:

I want to ask you to make a donation today, but not just to me — to split it between twelve other progressive candidates and elected officials running for office at all levels of government:

Can you split a $27 donation between our campaign for president and a number of progressive candidates we want to elect to create the change we need?

There are names you know on the list, people who need no introduction but deserve our support like Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez.

There are names on here who you may be less familiar with, like Jessica Cisneros who is running against a very conservative Democratic member of Congress in Texas. Her primary is two weeks away and any support you can give her would mean a lot.

There is a candidate who did not endorse our campaign, Congresswoman Ayanna Pressley who does a wonderful job in the House and we should all be doing what we can to ensure her re-election.

There is a candidate for governor, Andru Volinsky, whose support helped deliver New Hampshire for us earlier this week.

And there are of course other favorites like our campaign co-chair, Ro Khanna, Rashida Tlaib, Pramila Jayapal, Ilhan Omar, Mark Pocan and Peter Welch, and also Georgette Gómez who is running for Congress in California and Assemblymember Reggie Jones-Sawyer running in California.

So what do you say? Can you not only help us win this primary, but to help elect 12 great progressives running for office from coast-to-coast?

Split a $27 contribution to our campaign and twelve great progressives running for election and re-election all across this country. This is the ticket we need to elect to create the change we want to see.

If we are serious about creating a political revolution that creates a government that works for all of us and not just the 1 percent of this country, then these are the kinds of candidates at all levels of government that we must be supporting in addition to our campaign for president.

In solidarity,

Bernie Sanders
