I don't say this lightly: If I don't make the next debate stage, it will be the end of my campaign.

I'm humbly asking you to rush $5 in this critical moment to fund the emergency ads I'm launching to secure my spot on that stage. I need 500 gifts before midnight to fund this crucial first wave. >> secure.actblue.com/donate/julian-em?refcode=20190926_em_fr_b1_castro_all&recurring=auto&amount=5&amounts=25,50,100,250

I need to be completely vulnerable with you.

I just left an emergency meeting with my team.

They told me point blank: The DNC's new debate threshold will be the end of the road if we can't get more money in the door -- immediately.

The new rules say I need to stand out in 4 major polls to make the next cut.

It could cost me millions to run the ads it'll take to spread my message and hit those polls. I'm counting on your immediate $5 more than I ever have in my entire life. >> secure.actblue.com/donate/julian-em?refcode=20190926_em_fr_b1_castro_all&recurring=auto&amount=5&amounts=25,50,100,250

I know this new debate threshold is designed to cut candidates like me from the running.

It's designed for wealthy candidates with unlimited funds to blanket the airwaves with their message.

But I wasn't born into privilege like other candidates.

I don't have billions in personal wealth to fill my budget gaps.

What I do have is a resilient grassroots army.

A vision for this country like no one else.

And a determination to share that vision with you on the national stage.

I don't say this lightly: The future of my campaign rests on funding the ads I'll need to meet this new debate threshold.

I need 500 gifts in the door before midnight. I'm counting on your $5:
