Filing a final, strong FEC report before Election Day can energize and motivate voters to turn out this year, and tell the political establishment that the progressive movement has true staying power.
John, tonight is our pre-general FEC fundraising deadline before our very first general election.
The deadline is in less than 12 hours from now at midnight, and once we submit our fundraising numbers, they will be made publicly available for everyone to see, just like our quarterly fundraising numbers.
It's our final chance to show everyone how powerful our progressive movement is before people finish casting their ballots across the nation on November 3rd. Will you chip in $15.94 — our average online donation this month — to our campaign before midnight?

While fundraising isn't everything in a campaign, it is a metric that many folks take seriously when measuring the success — or potential success — of a candidate or a political movement.
Filing a final, strong FEC report before Election Day can energize and motivate voters to turn out this year, and tell the political establishment that the progressive movement has true staying power.
But on the other side, a poor showing can mean lower rates of voter turnout and increased dark money spending against progressives, which we can't afford to have happen in such a critical election year.
I'm not taking anything for granted this November, John. All of us must do the hard work right now to make sure we stop Trump's second term and elect progressives everywhere, especially in the House and the Senate — and prove that we are here to stay.
Chip in $5, $10, or $15.94 — our average online donation this month — and let's show how powerful our people-led movement is.
In solidarity,
Jamaal Bowman
