James,

This moment is urgent. In the final push of New York City’s historic mayoral race, Zohran Mamdani is under fierce attack.

Rep. Elise Stefanik, one of Trump’s most extreme allies, just called Mamdani a “jihadist.” A Democratic member of Congress called him “pro-Hamas.” These baseless attacks are making national headlines and flooding social media in a calculated effort to spread disinformation and turn New Yorkers against a candidate who stands for justice, peace, and economic dignity for all.

We refuse to let hate, bigotry, and lies decide this election. Which is why our ground game is more critical than ever. But we urgently need your help to counter the establishment’s smear campaign, reach undecided voters, and set the record straight in every corner of this city.

We’ve seen this playbook before. When progressives threaten the establishment, the billionaires and their allies respond with lies meant to divide us. Just ask our volunteers working the phones and canvassing: voters are asking real questions because of these attacks, and many are unsure what to believe.

Our team is having thousands of one-on-one conversations answering those tough questions. That’s the power of people-driven campaigns – not hate-driven headlines. But fighting back costs money. Every dollar you give powers our ability to break through media noise and disinformation.

We have just two weeks to push back against disinformation and get out every last vote. The billionaire-backed opposition has bottomless pockets, but one thing they’ll never have is our collective resolve.

When we organize, we win.
