Can we be real with you for a moment?
We understand that a constant stream of emails asking for a contribution can sometimes get on your nerves. We understand how people can get frustrated. But let us explain why this is vital.
When we’re asking for your support, we don’t expect every person to give. But we ask because we know that when you can support the cause, you will. That’s how this transformative movement works. It’s a whole lot of people doing their part to make something great.
Right now, we’re approaching our December mid-month deadline, and we’re hoping to hit our goal before today ends. The only way we can get there is through the support of small-dollar donors chipping in whatever they can. If you have the means, can you donate $5 right now? It’ll go a long way.
We’re not exaggerating. Most members of Congress fuel their reelection campaigns by dedicating hours of their time asking rich donors for $500, $1000, or even $2900 donations.
Alexandria is different. This whole movement is fueled by online contributions like the ones we’re asking for in this email. With these contributions, we’ve built a campaign that is…
- Raising resources, recruiting volunteers, and making calls to help elect progressive allies across Congress, and build a progressive majority.
- Reaching out to communities across NY-14 to spread awareness about the Green New Deal, how to influence local, state, and federal leaders, and more.
- Raising money for community projects like providing students with backpacks and families with a Thanksgiving dinner.
- Working day and night to keep Alexandria in Congress and show the world what we can do.
There are more than enough people reading this email that, if they just donated whatever they can spare, we’d be on track to reach our mid-month month. If this movement is the model of what you want in our politics, please donate today.
Thanks for reading,
Team AOC
