John, I'm proud to have the support of progressive champions across the country, including Ro Khanna, Stacey Abrams, Pramila Jayapal, and Ayanna Pressley. And I'm endlessly inspired by this grassroots team and the movement we're building together. We've come so far already, and a better future truly feels within our reach – but we have a serious problem.

We're coming up on our next end-of-month fundraising deadline in two days, and right now, we're on track to fall 18% short. The New York Times reported that this may be the most expensive race in the country next year, and for progressive Black women like me, money is oftentimes one of the biggest barriers to getting elected. That's why I'm humbly asking you to make your first donation and become a Top Supporter of my campaign right now.

We're at a critical stage of this race, and what we do now will set the pace for the rest of the cycle. Current polling shows we’re in a dead heat, and I need your help to pull ahead. So we're depending on 500 generous supporters like you to become Top Supporters by midn‌ight tonight.

Please, will you make a contribution of $5 or more now – any amount you can spare truly makes a difference – to become an official Top Supporter of my campaign for U.S. Senate? Every dollar brings us one step closer to a future that represents all of us!

Thank you so much,

Barbara Lee
