In just a moment, we are going to ask you to make a much-needed contribution to Kamala Harris's campaign. But before we do, you deserve to know why this request -- especially today -- is so important.

Here is the truth:

As you read this, Vice President Harris is getting absolutely hammered with attack ads by Trump and his allies in battleground states across the country. In some states we are even being outspent.

After this weekend, we are going to have to make some difficult spending decisions about where to move resources to counter these ads.

They are tough choices, because right now we still have budget gaps to fill.

If everyone getting this email who understands how important this race is contributed to our campaign today, we'd fill every budget hole in every state within hours -- and we would win.

But the truth is, only a small percentage of people give. So we are asking you, as humbly as we can, if you can be one of those people who cares enough to donate before it's too late.

Can Vice President Harris count on you to contribute $5, $47, or whatever it is you can afford today directly to her campaign? We will use your donation to immediately turn out the voters we need to defeat Trump and win this race.

Thank you, John.
