Hey John, we wanted to make sure you saw Bernie Sanders’ message.

This weekend, Chris Deluzio joined Bernie on his Fighting Oligarchy Tour in Pennsylvania.

Together, they stood in solidarity with thousands of Pennsylvanians and rallied against Trump’s administration and the unchecked corporate power that is threatening our democracy, and ripping away the American Dream from hardworking families.

We don’t want you to miss what Bernie had to say about Chris and their fight against oligarchy. Take a moment to read Bernie’s message below, then chip in to help Chris defend this critical battleground seat in Western PA:

Thank you,

Team Deluzio

John,

We are living in an unprecedented moment in modern American history. Under the Trump administration, we are witnessing oligarchs taking over our government, a rapid movement towards authoritarianism and a massive attack on programs that working people desperately need—such as Medicaid, Social Security, the Veterans Administration, housing and nutrition.

As we determine all the best ways to fight back, one thing is certain. Now is NOT the time for thinking small. Now is NOT the time to rely on the same old ideas, the same old politics, the same old establishment politicians.

Today, I’m continuing our Fighting Oligarchy Tour in Pennsylvania and I’ll be joined by my colleague in the House, Chris Deluzio.

He can use your financial support. Please contribute $27, or whatever you can afford today to his re-election campaign.

Chris is an Iraq War veteran and a union organizer, so he knows the power people hold when we stand together. He’s joining me, alongside thousands of Pennsylvanians, to show Donald Trump that we want a government that works for all of us, and not just the one percent.

Our goal today is not to simply parachute in and do a rally. We want to give you opportunities to take additional actions. Whether it’s demanding that their member of Congress hold a town hall and tell them if they’re going to vote for tax breaks for billionaires while they slash Medicaid or asking people to get involved in fights important to organized labor or in protecting the environment.

Now is the time for millions of working families to come together, to revitalize American democracy, to end the collapse of the American middle class and to make certain that our children and grandchildren are able to enjoy a quality of life that brings them health, prosperity, security and joy—and that once again makes the United States the leader in the world in the fight for economic and social justice, for environmental sanity and for a world of peace.

In Congress, Chris is someone with the courage to stand up and fight to revitalize American society and create the kind of government and economy that works for all of us, not just the ruling class.

That’s the kind of leader we need—please contribute to his re-election campaign today.

If you’re also with us in the fight to end oligarchy and transform our country, can you make a donation to Chris Deluzio before we take the stage?

In solidarity,

Bernie Sanders
