I’ll be honest, folks --

February has been a really tough month for fundraising.

My team just sent me an update on our numbers and we’re further behind than any of us thought we would be at this point in the month.

Our critical end-of-month deadline is tomorrow and this is our last chance to bump up these numbers. Can I count on you to donate $10 or more right now? If enough people step up, I’m confident we can get back on track.

Every dollar you give keeps me on the campaign trail talking to voters in California’s 13th District. But if our numbers stay like this, I’ll be forced to focus on fundraising instead — and trust me, that’s the last thing I want to do.

What we report at the end of the month are not just a bunch of numbers: they’re a sign of how strong our grassroots movement is.

And with Republicans threatening the worst, we must build a campaign powerful enough to beat them — which means we cannot afford to fall short on our goals right now.

Please, donate $10 or more right now to help us meet our end-of-month goal tomorrow and keep me fighting back against the GOP’s dangerous agenda.

Thanks for all you do.

In solidarity,

Barbara Lee
