Team, I'm following up on Natalie's email from yesterday:
The Federal Election Commission fundraising deadline is midnight tonight. That means today is our last chance to grow our movement ahead of our first public report with the FEC.
Team, if we fall short today, the corporate PACs and wealthy special interests opposing our candidates will smell blood in the water. They'll think our candidates are vulnerable and they'll devote more of their considerable resources to beating them.
We don't have the same resources they do. But we have something better: we have you. We have the people. And, together, we can overcome their advantages and send our people first candidates to office, from city halls to the halls of Congress.
I'm so proud of everything we've done together. I'm so proud of our candidates, and of the victories we've already won. I'm so glad we've been able to build this movement together, and I'm excited to see what we accomplish next. And I'm so proud you're with us.
Thanks again,
Julián Castro
