Friends, I hope you and your family are well and that you stay healthy.
I'm writing today because I strongly believe that we need Ed Markey's leadership and steady hand in the United States Senate.
Will you make a $3 donation to Ed's campaign before the FEC deadline on Tuesday?

I've known Ed Markey for 18 years. In 2014, I went to Massachusetts to campaign with him and his wife, Susan. I watched Bay Staters listen and learn when he spoke about the planet running a fever. He educated them about the health-damaging and economic effects of global warming, and he made it clear that the climate crisis is also the moral issue of our time.
Last year, Ed partnered with Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez to co-author the Green New Deal -- a resolution that would set in motion a 10-year mobilization to reach a green economy and save our planet.
Will you donate $3 to help Ed continue his work to protect our planet, his constituents, and all Americans for generations to come?

With so many people's lives upended in this public health crisis, we need Ed's leadership in the Senate now more than ever. He's been a strong voice in calling for this president to take bold and swift action. And after Ed spoke up, the president declared the health crisis a national emergency.
Ed has a proud record of fighting for progressive values such as access to health care for every person, preventing gun violence, enacting meaningful campaign finance reform, advocating for women's rights and equal pay, pushing for funding for high-quality public education, and so much more.
You can trust Ed Markey to fight for you and your family and the values you hold dear.
I know that not everyone is able to contribute right now, but if you can, won't you chip in $3 to make sure Ed's campaign hits its fundraising goal before the FEC deadline?
Don't let the new normal get you down. We will get through this.
Be well and thank you.
