[1]Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez for Congress

Are you on
other political email lists?

If so, you probably regularly receive urgent and panicky emails asking for
money — especially right now at the end of the quarter. Too many
politicians and organizations see their grassroots supporters as an ATM
machine. They use scare tactics, guilt and shame, and downright misleading
language to coax people into donating.

It’s bad, and getting worse. Team AOC is determined to rise above that and
treat you and our other grassroots supporters with respect. Here’s what we
believe:

* Instead of scaring you to donate, we want to inspire you to take
action.

* Instead of guilt tripping you for not donating enough, we want our
emails to provide value to you. We try to send out informative,
educational content.

* Instead of misleading you about fake 5X matches or faux threats, we’re
honest with you about what’s going on and how you can help.

* Instead of only hitting you up when we need money, we’ll also send you
opportunities to volunteer or help other candidates and causes who
need it.

But just
like all the other campaigns in your inbox, we do have fundraising goals
and deadlines. Everything we raise each quarter is detailed in our public
FEC report, and we want to post the biggest possible fundraising numbers.
But we’re not going to scare or scam you into donating. We’ll just ask
nicely because your donations to AOC are important and meaningful.

[ [link removed] ]Would you be able to make a
$5 donation to Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez right now to help
us hit our end-of-month goal? We’d really appreciate it.



[ [link removed] ]Contribute $5



If you can’t make a donation today, that’s okay too. We still want you
here, and we still appreciate you reading our emails.

The truth is that this email list is powerful. It’s powerful precisely
because you’re here with so many others.
It’s powerful because when so many of us take collective action all at
once, we can make real change.

So, maybe you can’t [ [link removed] ]donate right now. But maybe you’ll get something
of value from the next email we send. Or perhaps you’ll join us for a
volunteer activity down the road.

No matter what: we’re glad you’re here. Thank you for being part of this
movement.

In solidarity,

Team AOC
