Friends -

Why today?

Our campaign sends a number of fundraising emails — you know that.

This is another one. And maybe you’re asking yourself, why should I make my first online contribution today? Give me a chance to explain:

First, because we will put your contribution right to work. We are in the spending money phase of this campaign, on the air and ramping up staff in key states.

Second, we are not just taking on other candidates in this race. The health insurance and drug companies are spending big to beat us in Iowa.

Third, emails like this are how we fund our campaign. That means our success hinges on you and your willingness to chip in what you can, when you can, and in the big moments. And this is one of those moments:

Can you make a $2.70 contribution to our campaign today? This is a huge period of time for our campaign. We’re on the air, we’re under attack, and the next debate is days away. This is important.

This campaign does not and has never relied on closed door fundraisers or begging the already powerful for campaign contributions.

We don’t need ‘em. We have the best candidate with the best message for this moment, and we have millions of people ready and willing to fight alongside him.

And that is why we’re going to win.

So please, add your $2.70 contribution today. This is important.

Thanks for standing with Bernie. This is a big week for our campaign and not only does your support mean a lot, but we’ll put it right to work in order to win.

In solidarity,
