I’ll get right down to it: Our next FEC fundraising deadline is coming up at midnight on Tuesday, and we haven’t quite hit our goal yet, so I’m going to ask if you can pitch in.

But first, I want to talk about a few reasons why your contribution would make a real difference right now.

Hitting our quarterly fundraising target will ensure we can power our movement that’s fighting back against Donald Trump and the far-right — and making the case for the Democratic party to embrace economic policies that will make big, structural change for working people.

Your support will ensure our team can continue traveling across the country to connect with voters and bring them into our movement ahead of the midterms.

And your donation will also show how many people in Pennsylvania and across the country support the big ideas we’re fighting for — like passing a wealth tax and making billionaires pay their fair share, getting Big Money out of politics, banning members of Congress from trading stocks, and reining in Big Tech, to name a few.

After this deadline, when our fundraising numbers go public, Republican operatives and powerful special interests will scour them to try to gauge our strength. So let’s use this opportunity to show them how many of us are pushing back against their extremism and fighting to get corruption out of our politics.

If it makes sense for you right now, please chip in $28 or any amount before Tuesday’s midnight FEC deadline to help fuel our work and send a powerful message to the special interests we're fighting against.
