Dear John, On August 24, 2016 — exactly seven years ago TODAY — Bernie Sanders founded Our Revolution to empower the grassroots to challenge corporate control of our political process. Since then, we’ve elected over 1,000 progressives at every level of government — from AOC to Keith Ellison — and we’ve won countless battles on behalf of working people from city halls, to state capitals to US Congress. I know that Bernie is proud of all that we’ve done together over the last seven years to build the progressive movement’s power. Can you chip in $7 today to mark all that we’ve already accomplished together, and all that we still have to do? Today, Our Revolution is continuing Bernie's fight for progressive populism — including Medicare for All, Climate Action, Living Wages and Union Rights — an agenda which is more urgent now more than ever. With Trump’s popularity surging in part to his faux populist appeals to working class voters, it’s up to us to defend democracy by raising living standards of the American people. Our Democracy hangs in the balance–once again. And as we mark Our Revolution’s 7th anniversary, we are looking forward to our work over the next 7 years — from defeating Trump again, to electing more progressive champions, to holding establishment Democrats accountable to our platform. We’ve built a movement, and we’re just getting started. Please join us in celebrating the movement Bernie started and clicking here to give $7 to our work today. When we organize, we win! Sincerely, Joseph Geevarghese Executive Director, Our Revolution
