John, in this email, we're going to ask if you can make a contribution to support Katie Porter before tomorrow’s FEC fundraising deadline.

But we want to take a second to explain why this final FEC deadline matters.

After September 30, our campaign will publish a public report on how much support we’ve raised in the past three months. Here’s who will be paying special attention to this report: 

• Special interests who are sick and tired of watching Katie take powerful figures to task during Congressional hearings and would appreciate seeing her lose momentum and be replaced. 
• Reporters and pundits who are curious if a progressive leader like Katie can really keep this district blue, or if her victory in 2018 was just a one-off phenomenon. 
• Republican operatives and Super PACs who will be quick to jump on any sign of weakness from our grassroots campaign to flood this race with millions of dollars. 

They are going to use this final report before Election Day to judge how strong our movement really is. So, let's show them. 
 
Right now, we’re relying on every grassroots supporter to help make this our strongest FEC report yet and power our campaign to victory. Before tomorrow’s deadline, can you pitch in $10 or anything you can right now, John?

Let’s do this, 
 
Team Porter
