Our movement made history, team: We broke turnout records in Minnesota’s Fifth District and helped deliver a win for President-Elect Joe Biden — yet pundits and corporate-backed politicians continue to downplay Ilhan’s 38-point election victory, our spot as one of the top small-dollar fundraisers in Congress, and our progress toward bold policies like Medicare for All and a Green New Deal.

The reality is that even with such an impressive showing, those who would benefit the most from our failure will always be ready to try to undermine our movement — from the establishment to the ultraconservative, QAnon-supporting future members of Congress taking up Trump’s mantle who seem to take to social media to attack Ilhan almost every day.

So we’ll be on the defense — not with bad-faith attacks like our opponents but with a strong grassroots campaign team ready to put in the work to keep building our progressive base and partner with local organizations doing volunteer-powered work on the ground. And we’re counting on your support to meet our $25,000 end-of-month goal before midnight tonight to keep up this fight.

Will you chip in $5 toward our end-of-month goal right now so we can fight back against detractors of our movement and continue fighting for progress?

Thank you,

Isaiah Baehr-Breen
Deputy Communications Director
Ilhan for Congress
