Dear John:

In a moment, we’re going to ask you to make an 8-to-1 matched contribution to our campaign. But first, let us explain why this request is so important.

In just a few months, NYC will nominate a new mayor, a new comptroller, and city councilmembers for most of the city. Let that sink in: In 2021, we have a historic opportunity to reshape our city leadership and set the stage for the transformative change we need.

But to do that, we need the resources to communicate our vision to millions of voters -- and break through the noise as our opponents and the dozens of mayoral candidates bankrolled by corporate donors spend to drown us out.

In 3 days, NYC campaigns will file public finance reports. We’ve set the goal of raising $10,000 before the deadline to send a strong message that New Yorkers are finished with the unjust status quo -- and want bold leaders who are ready to meet this moment.

We’re still the only campaign in this race refusing money from for-profit developers, police unions, and corporate interests. Every $1 you donate is matched by $8 in public financing, and there’s never been a more important time to make an impact on this race. If you’re able, please chip in $5 or any amount ahead of this critical deadline to fuel our grassroots campaign to victory →

CONTRIBUTE

This has been a dark week in an already dark period of our history, but your resilience, your organizing, and your support continue to be a bright spot.

Running a 100% grassroots campaign isn’t the easiest path to take, but it’s the only way to break with a status quo that has kept us from truly tackling our challenges head-on.

Together, we can make sure that 2021 is the year we end business-as-usual and chart a course toward a just, sustainable future for New York City.

Thank you so much, and stay safe,
