Hi John,

I hope you’re staying safe and healthy. I wanted to take a moment to check-in. I haven’t reached out personally since we dramatically reorganized our operation and I wanted to say thank you.

We’ve seen a surge of support online over the past several weeks, and I can’t even begin to tell you how much it’s meant to our entire team. This is a challenging, unpredictable time, but the kind words, contributions, and messages of encouragement have reminded all of us how strong this DFL family truly is.

It’s also clear that Democrats everywhere know exactly how important Minnesota is this fall, and how essential it is that we’re able to persevere through these difficult circumstances. We’re monitoring our budget extra closely, and halfway through the month, I wanted to give you an update. If we raise $3,100 online by tomorrow night, we’ll be on pace to hit our revised goal for April.

If you’re able, please contribute $10, $25, $50 (or whatever works for you) to help us pull through. We’re counting on your support more than ever.

If we’re going to take back the White House in November, Minnesota is a must-win state for Democrats. It’s that simple. And we have a fresh example every day of why it’s so important that we’re successful.

Things are tough, but we remain hopeful. As long as we stick together, we will end the chaos of the Trump administration. We will take back our majority in the Minnesota Senate and increase our majority in the Minnesota House to support Governor Tim Walz. We will re-elect Senator Tina Smith and send a full Congressional delegation to Washington.

If you’re able, please make a contribution that works for you so we can keep Minnesota blue this November, no matter what comes our way.

Thank you,

Nora Ptacek
Deputy Finance Director
