I’ll be blunt: I am writing you another message today asking you to contribute to our campaign for president. Fundraising is one of my least favorite parts of the job if I’m being honest, but it’s a necessary part because we’re being outraised and outspent like never before.

Here’s how I see it: I’ve never run for president before. I didn’t start with a massive war chest of campaign cash. I’m not a billionaire who can self-fund or spend a vast personal fortune to try to win this primary.

I am someone who has worked for the people my entire career -- standing up to powerful special interests and bullies like Trump who prey on the most vulnerable and voiceless in our society.

It’s why I believe I’m the best candidate to prosecute the case against four more years of Donald Trump in the White House.

But first, we have to win this primary -- and that means ensuring we reach our mid-month fundraising goal before Friday’s deadline. Now here’s the part where I need to ask you to pitch in:

I’m asking personally: will you add a donation to our campaign to help us raise $250,000 online before Friday’s deadline? This is critical to our success, and I know we can do it with your help:

If you've saved your payment information with ActBlue Express, your donation will go through immediately:

Chip in $5 now Chip in $25 now

Chip in $50 now Chip in $100 now

Chip in $250 now Another Amount

I intend to win this election, and we’re going to do it the right way: by bringing people together and embracing our commonality. Thanks in advance for all that you do.

For The People,

— Kamala Harris
