Shortly after next Monday’s FEC deadline, the TV networks will take fundraising figures reported by campaigns, sort them from biggest to smallest in an on-screen graphic, and declare who’s winning the election from the numbers next to the dollar signs.

To the media, it doesn’t matter if your tens of millions of dollars come from billionaire casino magnates at fancy fundraisers, or from one million working people.

But it matters to Bernie. And it matters to us. And we bet it matters to you too.

Our problem is that despite having one million donors, our average contribution has fallen. A lot. It’s about $16 this month.

And with time running out before our deadline, we have to do everything in our collective power to meet our ambitious fundraising goals. So that is why we must ask:

Can Bernie count on you to make a contribution to our campaign? We know we have the people — and now we can show that we are just as powerful as the billionaire class.

We know that we have FAR more people who have made FAR more contributions to our campaign than anyone else in the race does. That includes Donald Trump — the sitting president.

But you’re not going to hear that from the corporate media. They just care about the total money.

The media won’t stop to think how incredible it is that our campaign can stay competitive all because of teachers, Amazon warehouse workers, Walmart cashiers, and Starbucks baristas who chip in a few bucks whenever they can.

We don’t know how we’ll stack up against the money raised from fancy fundraisers, billionaires, and health insurance executives. But we’re still going to do our damndest to make sure we come out on top if we can. So it’s up to all of us.

Please chip in whatever you can afford right now, whether it’s less, or if it’s more — to make sure we don’t fall behind our billionaire-backed opponents.

You should be very proud of how we are raising money in our race for president. We will be able to transform our country because of working people. Thank you for being a part of this movement.

In solidarity,

Team Bernie
