Hi, John – Laura from the DGA here and I have some bad news.

Our team’s April end-of-month fundraising push ended at midnight last night, and we fell short. Despite Governor Newsom, Governor Whitmer, Josh Stein, and Dr. Mary Trump reaching out personally to our top supporters – including you, John – not enough people stepped up.

Just take a look at the ActBlue results I just pulled:

We simply can’t afford to fall short in the midst of this important election year, John: there are 11 governors’ races – including in North Carolina and New Hampshire – along with a crucial presidential election. If extremists win in November, EVERYTHING we’ve fought for – reproductive rights, voting rights, Social Security, health care, and more – is on the chopping block.

That’s why we’re launching an EMERGENCY $25,000 GOAL to close the gap in our fundraising and make up lost ground! A group of donors has even agreed to MATCH each donation up to our emergency goal – but only until midnight.

Will you please chip in $3 to help elect Democratic governors and protect our most fundamental rights? Your gift will be MATCHED up to our goal – but only until midnight! Please, John, we can’t fall short again.

Thanks for stepping up – and good luck on the internet.
