Hey John — I bet your inbox is getting crowded. Trust me, I get these emails, too.

But I just got off the phone with my team and have to be honest: Our fundraising saw a dip over the summer, and we have to make up for lost ground before the quarter ends.

If you're reading this email, you’ve already beat the odds! Because the majority of folks we reach out to won't even open this email.

We rely on donations we receive in response to these emails to balance our budget, and when folks stop reading them, it sets us back. 

When our supporters stop opening our emails, it means we have fewer resources to resist Trump’s agenda and defend our Oregon values. 

So I’m hoping I caught you today, and I’m asking you to consider chipping in any amount to fuel our work. 

Will you add a contribution of any amount today to help us catch up on our September fundraising? Your help makes all the difference!

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

Even if you can’t make a donation today, I want to thank you for taking the time to read this email. It really helps us more than you know. 

Thanks so much.
