John, in just a moment, I’m going to tell you a story that is a centerpiece to my campaign for president. I hope you’ll take the time to read it and then split a $10 donation between my campaign and the DNC so that together, we can elect Democrats up and down the ballot in November.
When I was first elected to the United States Senate, my family experienced a tragedy that left me a single father of two surviving sons. Amid life’s uncertainty, the last thing I wanted to do was leave Hunter and Beau alone for days on end while I started my new job in Washington, D.C.
So, I made the decision that I’d be home to tuck my kids into bed every night and have breakfast with them every morning -- which meant traveling four hours roundtrip by train to and from Wilmington, Delaware every day.
My commute led me through dozens of neighborhoods, and I couldn’t help but wonder what was going on around the kitchen tables in the countless homes I passed. Here I was, a single dad traveling 120 miles for a new job that gave me the chance to make folks’ lives a little better.
I made a promise to fight for those families like I fought for my own -- a promise that motivates me to this day. I have seen the determination of the American spirit throughout my years serving in public office. Folks nationwide are working hard to ensure a better future for generations to come, and Democrats are fighting relentlessly to make that dream a reality.
We have a chance to change the course of this nation and elect Democrats who will lead with compassion, empathy, and experience. Please, split a $10 donation between my campaign and the Democratic National Committee today.
I made the long commute between Washington and Wilmington for one simple reason: I wanted my kids to know that I’d always be there for them, no matter what. It is with the same conviction that I approached my time as a senator and as vice president of the United States.
John, we can elect leaders who understand the importance of family, the power of hope, and the privilege of serving in public office -- but only if Democrats like you step up today and demonstrate your commitment to our party.
My team and Democrats down-ballot are rapidly scaling up our operations to meet the demands of what is shaping out to be the election of our lifetimes. With the help of the DNC, our campaign is in a good place. But to maintain the momentum we’re seeing across the nation, we need an influx of resources to build upon our successes. That’s why I’m coming to you today, now that we are firmly in the last full fundraising quarter of the election.
I wouldn’t ask if it weren’t so critical to my campaign and those of Democrats running up and down the ballot. Please, if you can, split a $10 donation between the DNC and Biden for President.
The generosity of this grassroots team amazes me every day. From the bottom of my heart, thank you.
All my best,
Joe
Joe Biden
P.S. Because of dedicated Democrats like you, we’ve been able to build a strong party infrastructure that is ready to take on Donald Trump and the GOP. But we can’t afford to slow down, especially with less than four months until Election Day. Donate $10 to my campaign and the DNC today so that our party has the resources it needs to win seats nationwide this year.
