Friends -

This is a grassroots campaign through and through.

We would not be in the position we’re in today without the support of thousands of folks like you.

Lately, Ed’s asked us to set aside some time to thank grassroots donors who fuel this campaign. He loves these conversations. He gets to share his sincerest gratitude and hear about what’s on folks’ minds.

This weekend, we’ve put more time on his schedule so he can make calls to people who chip in this week. I want to make sure you have a chance to get on the list:

Will you make your first online donation today? No matter what you give — Ed might call you to say thanks because small-dollar donations are the backbone of this campaign.

This is a closer race than anyone thought it would be.

We shocked the pundits and political insiders last quarter with our fundraising, and that is entirely because of the outpouring of grassroots support we saw.

Now it’s critical that we keep it up. It won’t be an easy fight from here to Election Day.

We know we’re getting outspent right now, and our only chance at fighting back is if we keep up our momentum. That’s where we need you:

You are an important part of this movement — Markey’s Army as we say. So please consider making a donation of any amount to help us keep up our fight. If you do, make sure to keep an eye on your phone this weekend because Ed might just call you!

Thanks for all you're doing. This team inspires me.

All my best,

John Walsh
Campaign manager
