John,
If there's anything you can count on Jamaal to do in Congress, it's to push hard for our people-first agenda and make sure our progressive perspective is represented — both in legislation and in the White House.
Take a look below at some of the headlines Jamaal's work and leadership have made this month alone:
Jamaal is intentionally choosing to build his time and priorities in Congress around legislating to save our democracy and work towards a future where we can all thrive, not just survive. But the truth is that our political system's status quo is informed by corporate and ultra-wealthy interests, not by the best interest of working Americans.
So when lawmakers like Jamaal challenge the status quo and unapologetically advocate for things like strong infrastructure without compromise, pro-union legislation, ending the filibuster, voter protections, and more — the political establishment does everything in its power to shut us down.
John, we know that we're stronger than the political establishment, because we have the power of the grassroots on our side. And as we get closer and closer to the 2022 midterms, your support will be more critical to our collective success than ever.
While the midterms may be over a year away, we need to get mobilized and ready — starting now — and show the true strength of our movement.
$52,500 isn't just some random amount of money, John. We crunched the numbers and set that goal with future plans in mind, particularly as we get closer to the 2022 midterms — and as the political establishment begins to look at our campaign and Jamaal's candidacy to determine a potential challenge.
Every dollar raised helps us secure critical investments for our campaign, from digital ads to voter outreach. And because we'll be publicly reporting our fundraising numbers to the FEC at the end of this quarter, strong fundraising also shows our opponents that our movement is growing — and here to stay.
Thanks for all that you do,
Team Bowman
