John,
We wanted to share an update with you about how our campaign is doing:
Last month, we hit our Q1 2021 fundraising goal. But this month, our fundraising performance is coming up short. In fact, with where we currently stand, April is looking like it’s about to be our worst month of fundraising this year.
This isn’t the update we wanted to share, but we’re doing so because we believe in being straightforward with you, John — even if it isn’t good news. And with 2022 midterms coming up next year, we need to use this time to really build our base, grow our movement, and show the world that our grassroots movement has what it takes to keep up the progressive fight in Congress.
We have a lot of ground to catch up on before the end of the month, John, which is why we’re asking right now: will you chip in $5 or whatever you’re able to our campaign?

Jamaal has been in Congress now for a little over 100 days, but the political establishment is already making their plans to take back some of their power in the halls of Congress.
In short, the establishment is hoping to see our momentum slow down and fizzle out — and if we can’t keep up and post strong grassroots fundraising numbers, it could signal to them that our movement isn’t as strong as they once thought.
And, John, we simply can’t afford to slow our fundraising down now — not when the political establishment is paying close attention. Jamaal doesn’t take donations from corporate PACs and lobbyists, and the money we raise through emails like this one is the same money that ensures that 100% of Jamaal’s time in Congress is spent legislating and working for our communities.
So, will you chip in $5 or whatever you’re able to our campaign right now, John? Together, we can get our fundraising back on track before the end of the month, and continue to prove to the political establishment that our movement is strong, and that we’re not going anywhere.
In solidarity,
