John,

This is really tough. News outlets are reporting that more than 1.43 million people filed for unemployment for the first time last week and our national GDP has fallen by 33%.

We cannot afford four more years of a Trump presidency. But defeating Trump isn’t enough. We need more Democrats in Congress who will fight for bold solutions to the many crises we’re collectively facing.

We need more leaders like AOC and Jamaal Bowman who will fight for economic justice for working-class people — not corporations and the wealthiest 1%.

Right now, we’re racing against the clock to reach our $164,409 July fundraising goal before tomorrow at midnight. Yesterday we lowered our goal from $170,000 because when we saw the numbers, it was clear that we weren’t going to reach $170,000.

If you can afford to, will you contribute $3 to help us reach our $164,409 goal before tomorrow at midnight so we can help elect more leaders like AOC and Jamaal Bowman?

Contribute $3

Together we are taking on the entire political establishment to transform the Democratic Party and elect diverse, working-class leaders who understand the struggles that regular people face.

We need rent cancellation, direct payments every month to working-class people, expanded unemployment benefits, and Medicare for All. Democrats who cave to Republicans aren’t cutting it.

Help us elect a new generation of leadership to Congress who will fight for solutions that match the crises we face. Add your $3 contribution here.

Thank you for everything you’re doing to support our work,

Team JD
