John,
This isn’t the email we had hoped to send you today.
We just barely missed our $35,000 mid-month fundraising goal. But, the good news is that if one in three folks who read this email today each chip in $3 then we can make up for this shortfall.
Look, we don’t have tens of millions of dollars in the bank like the Democratic establishment. We reject all corporate PAC contributions because we know that movements should be funded by people chipping in what they can afford without any influence from corporations.
Even if we miss a fundraising goal we’ll never try to scare you into donating. We’re not going to send you any terrifying, DCCC-style “the sky is falling” emails. There is no reason to kiss all hope goodbye. And we don’t have any generous donors to QUADRUPLE MATCH your donation.
But, we will politely ask you to contribute if you can afford it, so we can keep our work going and keep providing critical organizing help and other campaign services to our Justice Democrats running for office.
Thank you for your solidarity,
Team JD
Do not worry if you cannot afford to make a contribution — we understand that this is a difficult time. If you’re struggling, you can find a food bank here. We appreciate everything you do to keep our movement strong. Please stay informed and follow the most up-to-date recommendations from the Centers for Disease Control and your state public health department. |
