John, this afternoon I was in Detroit, where nearly 140 years ago, ten thousand people marched in one of our nation's first Labor Day Parades.

They understood the power of unity: that when people stand together, when we join our voices, we can drive extraordinary change.

My parents taught me that from a young age -- and it is the value at the heart of our campaign. Because the true measure of a the strength of a leader is not who you beat down, but who you lift up.

From union rights to reproductive rights, we are not going back, John.

We are fighting to create a new way forward.

We are fighting to build what I call an opportunity economy so every American can buy a home, start a business, and build wealth. We are fighting to raise wages, lower costs, and defend our most fundamental freedoms.

And I know you agree: No one should ever be made to fight alone.

So, today, I am asking you to pitch in $25 to power our fight for freedom, for opportunity, for the promise of America. Because when we fight, we win.

John, as strong as our movement has become, we remain the underdogs in this race. We must keep growing our momentum heading into next week's debate. Please pitch in $25 -- or as much as you can afford -- to make your voice heard at this critical moment.

We have 64 days until the most important election of our lives.

And in that time, I will continue to count on the strength, the determination, and the leadership of this grassroots team.

Thank you and take care,

Kamala
