Important request, here:
The big change in the race yesterday gives us a chance at even more delegates on Tuesday and the week that follows.
So Faiz gave the green light to a budget expansion even though we didn’t have those funds budgeted previously. We’re about 50% of the way and are hoping to get there by midnight.
Faiz’s email is below, but if you can use this link to make a contribution right now, it’d mean a lot to our chances:

- Team Bernie
I had to make a very tough decision.
Yesterday afternoon we had an ad budget meeting — the one I wrote you about on Wednesday — and it became clear that given recent developments in the race that if we had a bit more money we could fight for a number of additional delegates next Tuesday and the week that follows.
The money wasn’t budgeted, but I gave the green light again.
It is no doubt a risk — especially in this new race. But there are a lot of voters making up their minds again and we have to reach them before it's too late.
So I made the bet that if I asked you for help that you would come through, again, to fill the gap. I hope that you can do it... for Bernie, and for this movement.
No doubt about it, it was a difficult decision. But if there’s one thing that makes this campaign entirely different from Joe Biden’s: it’s the people. You answer the call time and time again.
I’ll report back on what we were able to do with your support here.
All my best,
Faiz Shakir
