The first time I heard about Bernie Sanders, I was waiting tables at a greasy spoon diner. I was working 12-hour shifts, scraping by without health benefits, and making less than a living wage.

Like millions of working people, I had resigned myself to believing this was just the way things are.

Bernie helped many of us realize things don’t have to be this way. Working people don’t have to accept an economy rigged to protect the powerful. We can transform our country, if and only if we build a multi-racial, multi-gendered, multi-generational movement for change.

Last weekend, I stood with more than 25,000 friends in Queens, New York to endorse Bernie for president. Now I am asking you to join me:

Will you split a contribution with Bernie Sanders and my campaign now? Together we can transform the United States of America.

The only reason I believed I could launch a longshot run for Congress is because Bernie’s campaign proved that you can build a grassroots movement and win. He showed what people-powered mass movement politics can accomplish at the ballot box.

Our priority is not only defeating Donald Trump in 2020. It is building a grassroots movement to dismantle the systems of which Trump is a symptom.

When we do that, we can affirm health care as a right and pass Medicare for All. We can pass a Green New Deal to decarbonize our economy and create millions of union-wage jobs. We can reform our criminal justice system, and make college tuition free.

We can do all of these things, but only if millions of us come together to form the greatest grassroots movement this country has ever seen.

If you’re with us, please split a contribution to help elect Bernie Sanders as our next president.

Pa'lante,

Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez
