Folks --

Look, I’m not here to fool you. I won’t yell “the sky is falling!” and I will never trick you into donating -- that’s not how I do things.

I’m telling you exactly how it is. And truthfully, it’s not good.

There’s only 4 days left in the month and we’re way behind on our fundraising goal.

This is not what we expected. Grassroots energy has dipped these past couple of weeks and we’re in a severe fundraising slump. Meanwhile, my opponents are using their own fortunes to prop up their campaigns alongside support from right-wing billionaires.

That’s why it’s crucial we hit every fundraising benchmark we set in order to go toe-to-toe with them.

So, we’re asking you to chip in what you can to help us reach our crucial $50,000 end-of-month goal.
