Friends -
Today, the most important political campaign in the modern history of the United States officially begins, and Bernie will help kick it off.
TV coverage at the Democratic National Convention will begin at 9 p.m. ET / 6 p.m. PT and Bernie will be giving his keynote address at 10:36 p.m. ET / 7:36 p.m. PT. Bernie's message tonight will not be complicated:
Donald Trump must be defeated.
We cannot continue having a president who is undermining American democracy, who is a pathological liar, whose rejection of science in the midst of the horrific pandemic we are experiencing has resulted in the unnecessary loss of tens of thousands of lives and who still does not recognize the existential threat that climate change poses to our planet.
Donald Trump must be defeated.
We cannot continue having a president who is a racist, a sexist, a xenophobe, a homophobe and a religious bigot, someone who is intentionally trying to divide our people through fear and hatred.
Donald Trump must be defeated.
We cannot continue having a president who gives massive tax breaks to the richest people in the country and the largest corporations, while he tries to throw 32 million people off of the health care that they have, and wants to make huge cuts to Medicaid, Medicare, Social Security, education and environmental protection.
As this campaign officially begins tonight, we need to ask:
Add your name to commit to defeating Donald Trump in November and continuing our fight for justice.
In this unprecedented moment in American history, we have two major tasks in front of us:
First, we must do everything possible to defeat Donald Trump and elect Joe Biden as our next president.
Second, the day after Biden is elected we must mobilize grassroots America to make certain that Biden, a Democratic House and a Democratic Senate pass the most progressive agenda since FDR and the 1930s. We must create a government that works for all, not just the 1% and powerful special interests.
Thank you for tuning in to Bernie's speech later tonight, and for your continued involvement in our movement.
In solidarity,
Team Bernie
Tonight at 10:36 p.m. ET / 7:36 p.m. PT Bernie will be speaking at the Democratic National Convention, and it is going to require all of us coming together to defeat Trump.
Add your name to commit to defeating Donald Trump in November and continuing our fight for justice.

We hope you'll stay, because emails are such an important part of how we organize and how we raise money. In fact, there is no single greater source for our campaign's fundraising than emails like this one. And that's important, because no one person, not even Bernie Sanders, can take on the billionaire class alone.
Before you go about the rest of your day, help power our fight against the billionaire class by making a contribution today.
