Dear John, In just one week, people in New York and Kentucky will be casting their votes in primaries that could transform Congress. We are doing everything in our power to kick corrupt politicians out of office and replace them with Green New Deal champions who will fight for our communities. We’ve made almost half a million calls to voters and still the races will be tight. Despite the explosion of support they’ve received, these campaigns are still the underdogs, with barely any money in comparison to the millions their opponents have to throw around. What we help Charles Booker and Jamaal Bowman achieve in this final week could make or break these races. Can you pitch in to help reach as many voters as possible before it’s time to cast ballots next week? Day after day, we hear people’s excitement to vote for these amazing candidates when they learn about them. There are so many more voters who aren’t aware that they have better options. Your money will help us, Charles, and Jamaal reach out to them and win their hearts.

But the people of Kentucky and New York know exactly what they need. In Kentucky, they know they don’t want a pro-Trump Democrat like McGrath. And New Yorkers are fed up with Engel, who isn’t even present for the district he’s meant to represent--his primary residence is in Maryland. These two aren’t the representatives their states want or need, but they have the money to drown out the message of any opponents. Charles and Jamaal were born and raised with the people they aim to represent now. They share these communities’ values, hopes, and will to fight for what the people deserve. They have been on the frontlines in the fight for Black lives as police violence has broken out in both their states. But, unlike their opponents, they depend almost entirely on grassroots support. With your help, they can come out on top in the primary next week. Can you contribute to support these campaigns in the last days leading up to the primary? In the last week, we made almost half a million calls to voters. Your support could help us make half a million more before people cast their votes next Tuesday. Support is surging for Bowman and Booker. Other members of Congress have endorsed them, major newspapers have backed them, and people who once supported their opponents are changing their minds when they hear about the passion and integrity of these Green New Deal champions. Let’s make these last 7 days the greatest these campaigns have ever seen. Taryn, National Field Director P.S. - We know not everyone is in a position to give right now. If you’re unable to help financially, consider donating a couple hours of your time by signing up to phone bank tonight with Jamaal Bowman himself. Every call we make is a potential vote for these champions. |
