[1]Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez for Congress

Hi, it’s Rebecca, campaign
manager for Team AOC.

I’m writing to ask you to make your
first contribution to Alexandria’s campaign before our
end-of-year FEC deadline. But first I hope you’ll let me explain why
chipping in before Thursday’s deadline in particular is so important.

Just 55 days ago, Alexandria was re-elected with 71.6% of the vote. That
outcome was never a foregone conclusion.

We faced an endless onslaught of negative coverage from outlets like Fox
News and Breitbart. Our opponent in the primary was funded by Wall Street
giants, including the CEOs of Goldman Sachs and Blackstone. The Republican
who ran against us in the general raised a historic amount of money from
GOP donors across the nation. Overall, we had to fend off more than $15
million in attacks.

In the end, small-dollar donations from people like you helped us run the
strongest possible campaign in NY-14 and re-elect Alexandria.

At midnight on Thursday, we are closing the books for the final quarter of
2020. Then, we’ll send a report to the FEC. The strength of our
fundraising on this public report is crucial for a number of reasons.

 1. Potential opponents will watch closely: They want to see how much
money we have in the bank to fight a primary or general election
challenge. And with the potential that New York could lose a
congressional district, New York needs to be really prepared for this
fight.

 2. The national media is paying attention: AOC’s fundraising has become a
bellwether for the strength of our movement. If we report a lot of
donations, it demonstrates that a lot of grassroots energy is behind
our ideas.

 3. These donations help us grow: Donations help us grow the reach of our
campaign. We can use these funds to train more volunteers at home and
in competitive races across the country - and expand our homeworker
helpers program and create other constituent service programs.

The bottom line is that the numbers we report through the December 31
deadline are really important. And that’s why I am writing and asking for
your help now.

$3 contribution before our critical FEC deadline? Every
donation before midnight on Thursday will help us strengthen our public
report.

I am so thankful to each and every one of you for your support. Whether
you chipped in this past year, spent some time volunteering, or voiced
your support in other ways, it all added up. We won our first re-election
by a wide majority.

Now we need to close out the year’s fundraising with a surge so that we
can grow this movement in 2021 and beyond. [ [link removed] ]Please, if you can afford
it, donate before Thursday’s
deadline.

Thank you for everything,

Rebecca Rodriguez
Campaign Manager
Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez for Congress
