John,
Our first quarterly Federal Elections Commission deadline is just around the corner — and your first-time donation for Jamaal is critical to making sure our first public fundraising numbers in Congress are our strongest possible.
We've set a goal of raising $225,000 before midnight on March 31 to show the political media, pundits, and potential opponents that our movement is stronger than ever. And we've only got four days to do it.
Will you chip in $3 or whatever you're able to contribute right now?
Since he began his first term in Congress in January, Jamaal has been laser-focused on legislating and leading our movement for transformative change in our government and communities.
He's known that, for too long, New York's 16th District has had an entrenched, establishment incumbent "representing" us. There's a lot that folks are looking to Jamaal to get done in his first term, and he's been hard at work to deliver.
Not having to worry about fundraising will give Jamaal the room to focus on his job entirely and fight for us. He's already focusing 100% of his time towards legislating, whereas other members of Congress are devoting up to 20 hours a week towards calling wealthy donors to finance their campaigns.
We're proud that Jamaal doesn't take checks from lobbyists or billionaire donors — but that does mean a significant portion of our fundraising comes from emails just like this one. When we say your contributions and support are the lifeblood of this campaign, John — we mean it.
Thank you,
Team Bowman
