John,
We wanted to make sure you didn’t miss this from the weekend: an update on
New York’s redistricting efforts. (See below for the original email.)
Look. We’re currently less than 4 hours away from our August fundraising
deadline. And right now, we’re still 6% away from hitting our goal with
precious little time to waste.
As we mentioned in our redistricting update below, it’s critical for us to
hit every fundraising goal from here on out in order for us to ensure that
we have the resources, tools, and supporters to continue running a
competitive campaign. If we don’t hit this goal this month, we’ll need to
reassess our plans for the coming months — which could be a setback to our
momentum, especially as we face final updates on redistricting and as the
2022 midterms get closer and closer.
[ [link removed] ]If you were waiting for the perfect opportunity to chip in...now’s the
time, John. Please, chip in
$3 or whatever you’re able in order for us to close the gap
in our fundraising and hit our $20,000 end-of-month fundraising goal
before midnight tonight:

John, we have
an update on the Census to share:
The official 2020 U.S. Census data is finally out — and with that,
confirmation that New York will lose a seat in the House. Now, the process
of redrawing district lines is finally underway.
The good news? It's looking more and more likely that the district loss
will come from upstate, as New York's population growth has been located
within the New York City region.
But the bad news is that if an upstate New York district is removed, it's
possible that downstate districts like ours will have their lines redrawn
to "absorb" heavily GOP parts of the state. What's more, it's likely that
potential opponents to Jamaal's seat are waiting for district lines to be
finalized — amongst other things — before making their final decision to
challenge him or not.
We know we can't control whether or not Jamaal will face a challenge in
his next election,
John. But what we can control
is proving to our opposition that our movement has the resources, tools,
and supporters to run a competitive campaign. That's why hitting every
goal from here on out — including our $20,000 end-of-month email
fundraising goal for August — is so crucial.
If we reach our goal, we'll be able to adequately prepare for whatever
challenges redistricting may bring — and prove that a people-powered
movement like ours is here to stay. [ [link removed] ]So, can we please count on you to
chip in $3 before our deadline?

The future may be uncertain, but one thing isn't: We absolutely need your
support today to make sure we can stay ready for any and all fights ahead.
Thank you for all that you do,
Team Bowman
