Rarely, if ever, will we have another opportunity to impact the course of history and the quality of everyday lives as we do this year.

We don’t have to tell you: The stakes are high in this election. Donald Trump and his Republican allies in Congress have spent nearly every moment they’ve been in power discriminating against vulnerable communities, spreading divisiveness and hatred, stoking racism and sexism, and implementing policies that line the pockets of their megadonors at the expense of the rest of us.

Minnesota is a key piece of the puzzle when it comes to ending this administration’s rampant abuse of power, which means you have a critical role to play, too.

Right now, we are falling behind on our fundraising goal for the quarter — not by a lot, but enough to make a difference. The FEC deadline is in just a few days — can you make a donation of any amount to make sure we don’t miss this goal?

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

Momentum is everything in campaigns like ours. When our numbers go public right after the FEC deadline expires, everyone from Donald Trump to his dark-money donor network will take a close look at our fundraising to see if we have a campaign strong enough to fight back and win.

This is a real deadline, and it’s one that matters greatly when it comes to the momentum we’ll be able to build in the final months of this election. Your contribution — whether it’s $1 or $100 — can make a real difference in our fight to keep Minnesota blue.

Thanks for all you do.
