Tonight, we’ve got a major FEC deadline, and we need a surge in grassroots support before we close the books at midnight.
We’re trying to build a grassroots, people-powered movement that can compete with the corporate interests and far-right billionaires who have kept Texas Republicans in power for far too long.
While Greg Abbott, John Cornyn and Ted Cruz, and other Texas Republicans call up their corporate donors and the oil and gas lobby to fund their campaigns, we take a different approach.
Instead of relying on millionaires or corporate interests, we have a bunch of people like you from across Texas and the nation giving whatever they can afford from time to time. It may not seem like $5, $10, and $25 donations are enough to compete with Republicans’ special interest money, but it is.
That’s because, before you opened this email, someone you don’t know pitched in $15, and in the time it takes you to read this, someone else will add their $5 donation.
We fund our work one small-dollar donation at a time, and it all adds up to help our candidates. You are what makes our work so powerful, but it requires each of us to do our part.
Thank you,
Julián
