Hi team -- Claire here. I wanted to make sure you heard straight from Ilhan about the degree of Donald Trump's recklessness and inaction -- his failed leadership that has led to COVID-19 deaths like her father's, mass unemployment, and police violence at protests and in our communities.
Take a moment to read Ilhan's personal message -- then donate to make sure we can send her back to Congress to keep passing progressive reforms that put working people first and checking Trump and the GOP's corrupt agenda.

Subject: re: Tulsa
Friends,
Last night, Donald Trump held a reckless campaign rally in Tulsa, only a day after I buried my father, who passed away from COVID-19.
Not only was his decision to hold a rally in the midst of a global pandemic reprehensible -- Trump's inaction on COVID-19 is killing our fathers, our mothers, our children, our siblings, and our friends. His abandonment of working people, his endorsement of police brutality, and his violent military action against protesters simply exercising their constitutional rights -- are all reprehensible.
It's clearer than ever that we need progressives in Congress to create the real change people are counting on, and to keep a check on Trump and his GOP enablers. So today, I'm asking you to donate or anything you can to fight back against Trump and power our movement for progress: [link removed]
It's no surprise that he twisted my call to invest in healthcare, housing, and education instead of increasingly militarized police departments into disparaging attacks on me and refugees like me who want to build a better America. In fact, nothing Trump said last night was shocking -- it was all reflective of his agenda to stoke racism and hate, ignore the increasingly dangerous coronavirus, hurt working people, and give police officers free rein to terrorize our communities.
Donate anything you can to fight back against Trump and power our movement for progress: [link removed]
Thank you for making sure we put an end to Trump's hatred and corruption once and for all by helping me win this race and pass more bold, transformative policies that put people first.
Ilhan
