James,

Zohran Mamdani has a clear message for Donald Trump: he will NOT capitulate. And right now, that is EXACTLY the kind of leadership we desperately need.

This is about more than one election – it’s about standing up and REFUSING to let Donald Trump bully the people he is supposed to represent.

Now more than ever, we need leaders who aren’t afraid to look Trump in the eye and say: “Not here. Not now. Not ever.” But we’re up against billionaire super PAC spending. Every dollar you give means we knock on more doors, call more voters, and get more volunteers out there to cut through the noise and reach their neighbors face-to-face in these crucial final days.

In last week’s debate, Mamdani called out ex-Gov. Cuomo for refusing to confront Trump’s abuse of power. And in an interview on Fox News, he spoke directly to Trump himself, saying: “I will not be a mayor like Mayor Adams, who will call you to figure out how to stay out of jail. I won’t be a disgraced governor like Andrew Cuomo, who will call you to ask how to win this election. I can do those things on my own.”

And that is exactly why Trump is so terrified of the movement Mamdani has built. Because Mamdani isn’t scared of his threats. And because his power comes from the fact that he’s giving voice – and power – back to working people.

The truth is that Trump sees what’s happening on the ground. The movement we’re building doesn’t just threaten his grip on NYC – it threatens his power EVERYWHERE. He knows Mamdani is not backed by deep-pocketed Wall Street donors. Instead, it’s people like you – people who refuse to back down, especially when billionaires flood the airwaves with smear ads.

When we organize, we win.
