Hi there,
Today, we’re hoping you’ll allow us to give you five reasons why your $5 contribution is so important to Ilhan Omar.
- In 2022, Ilhan won her primary against a challenger by just 2,466 votes, and our opponents are already recruiting another challenger who will uphold the status quo in Congress. So we cannot take this race for granted.
- The right wing has already made Ilhan one of their top targets this election cycle. According to new reports, AIPAC’s Super PAC is recruiting candidates to defeat the Squad — and Ilhan is one of their top two targets1. This is the same super PAC that took a $1 million contribution from a billionaire Trump mega-donor earlier this year, all with the intention to interfere in Democratic primaries2.
- Ilhan is a proven progressive champion. We need to keep her in Congress so she can continue her work to fight for Medicare for All and the Green New Deal, and so much more.
- We aren’t banking on super PACs with millionaire and billionaire donors to swoop in and save the day for Ilhan. Instead, we rely on the people. This movement is powered by folks just like you giving small amounts of money at a time.
- In just 5 days, we’re facing our August fundraising deadline. If we want to reach our goals, we need a large outpouring of support before our deadline passes.
We hope these five reasons show just how important your contribution to Ilhan Omar is today. Now, the choice is yours:
Will you please chip in $5 — or any amount that makes sense for you — to Ilhan Omar before her August fundraising deadline on Thursday?
