Hi John, you know me as someone who tells it like it is, so I want to be honest with you right now: This is a moment when your support is needed most—and I want to ask you to make a contribution to our campaign today. Here's why:
We're only three days away from our biggest fundraising deadline of this race. After September 30, we'll publish a public FEC report that shows how much support our campaign has received in the past quarter. What's more, the contributions we receive before this deadline will help secure the resources we need to turn out as many voters as possible during the final stretch of this race.
If you've stored your info with ActBlue Express, we'll process your contribution instantly:
Our campaign's next FEC report is an opportunity to show that this grassroots movement for working families can compete against the influential machine of lobbyists, special interests, and billionaire donors that has taken over our government.
Because even though I'm facing a tough race, and even though Republican Super PACs have pledged to pour millions into this race to defeat me, I refuse to take campaign contributions from lobbyists or corporate PACs—and I don't take money from executives at Big Oil companies or Wall Street banks.
Does that decision make reaching this end-of-quarter goal a bit more challenging? It certainly does. But I don't fight on behalf of billionaires or corporations, and their large contributions won't ever influence me. I work for the American people, and therefore my re-election campaign runs on the power of the small-dollar, grassroots donations we receive each day.
Thanks for everything,
Katie
