Did you see John’s email? We have some modest general election fundraising goals that we need to hit, and right now, we’re not on track to reach them. We’re not making any cuts to our plans yet because we’ve seen this team come through during difficult moments before. That’s what we’re counting on now.

So what do you say — can you pitch in $3 or whatever you can afford to our campaign today?

Hey John Walsh here, Ed’s campaign manager. I’m reaching out because we need to ask for your financial support.

We set some modest fundraising goals for the general election — nothing exorbitant, but enough to keep our organizing operation going after the primary.

But the reality is that we are significantly behind where we wanted to be at this point. So I need to ask you to help us make up the difference.

Can you make a $3 donation to our campaign today to help us close the gap on our fundraising? Your support will help us get across the finish line in Massachusetts and help us flip a few Senate and House races in important battlegrounds.

Look, this isn’t an email that I wanted to send, but our grassroots supporters like you are a critical part of this movement.

You are our partner in this fight to re-elect Ed, flip the Senate, defeat Donald Trump, and then pass the Green New Deal. None of it is possible without you, so you deserve the truth.

Every dollar we receive before Election Day is being immediately put to work to turn out the voters that Democrats need to win. Passing the Green New Deal next year will not be possible unless we do this work now.

So if you can, please consider making a $3 donation to our campaign today to help us reach our fundraising goals. Now is not the moment for us to fall short.

Thank you again for being an important part of this movement. It is an honor to be in the trenches, fighting alongside you, and we’re going to need you with us for the long haul. This work to pass our progressive agenda is just getting started.
