Team,

I wanted you to hear this from me personally: I am endorsing Senator Bernie Sanders for president of the United States.

Here’s the thing about Bernie: He isn’t fighting to win just one presidential election -- he’s fighting for the soul of our democracy.

Bernie and I are part of a movement that’s fighting for the America we deserve -- one that collectively works toward a brighter future for every one of us. Will you help us bring our movement to the White House by chipping in to our campaigns today?

Bernie is leading a working class movement to defeat Donald Trump that transcends generation, ethnicity, and geography. I know this from experience -- I’ve worked with him up close on bold progressive reforms. I’ve seen the values that motivate his fight for progress.

Bernie knows that when our children have empty stomachs, they can’t learn. This week, we introduced a universal school lunch bill to make sure every student who wants a hot meal can get one year-round.

America doesn’t suffer from scarcity -- we suffer from greed. Last summer, Bernie and I brought forward legislation to cancel all $1.6 trillion of student debt and pay for it with a small tax on Wall Street speculation.

Bernie supports Medicare for All, creating a humane immigration system that doesn’t treat immigrants like criminals, and ending forever wars. He believes in real solutions that will lift up working people across the country and bring peace around the world.

Will you chip in whatever you can to our campaigns today to power our movement all the way to Pennsylvania Avenue?

I have no doubt that Bernie is the best candidate to take on Donald Trump in 2020. Let’s get him elected.

In solidarity,
