Brad Lander for NYC Mayor

Hi John! It’s Rebecca.

I want to set the record straight on something. I am definitely aware that we send A LOT of fundraising emails and texts, especially during these last few days before the NYC Campaign Finance Board fundraising deadline on March 13.

So on behalf of Brad and the entire campaign, we are incredibly grateful for your support, and sorry for blowing up your inbox!!!

But here’s why small dollar fundraising is so especially critical right now. We are running against corrupt politician Andrew Cuomo, who has cronies with deep pockets and a long history of manipulating dark money to fund his personal ambitions.

Cuomo, for example, has raised millions of dollars for his campaigns from real estate developers through a campaign finance loophole he pledged to close.1

That’s why we’re so proud to have this disclaimer at the bottom of every ActBlue form. Have you ever noticed this, John?

Lander 2025 does not take contributions from:
• Corporate or Real Estate PACs
• Principals of for-profit real estate development companies (Principal is defined as an Owner, Founder, CEO, and/or
Senior Executive)
• Corporate lobbyists who are registered in the NYC
• Fossil-fuel executives, which includes utilities companies (e.g.
Con Ed, National Grid)
• Investment managers who seek or do business with the City.
The SEC directly prohibits investment managers from making contributions to elected officials who have a role in selecting them.

Our campaign is not funded by real estate developers. Our campaign is not funded by the corporate or special interests. Our campaign is not funded by political insiders.

Instead, our campaign is funded by common-sense New Yorkers who are fed up with corruption in City government. People like you, John, who chip in online whenever you can. Last filing period, 86% of Brad’s donors were from New York City.

Please use this link to make a contribution of any amount to Brad Lander’s campaign today (and check out the disclaimer at the bottom of the form!): https://secure.actblue.com/donate/bsl-em-mar25

It’s critical to raise as much money as possible before March 13 if we want to defeat corrupt politician Andrew Cuomo and his roster of special interest cronies with deep pockets funding his campaign.

Thanks,

Rebecca
