Subject: Announcing my re–election campaign
I wanted you to hear it from me first, friends — I’m officially running for re-election to Minnesota’s Fifth Congressional District.
I’m running again because I love my district, and I believe a better world is possible. And while we’ve made a lot of progress, our job’s not done.
Finishing what we started means addressing the economic and income inequality issues that are holding workers back and systematically forcing families into poverty. It means creating a healthier, more livable world for future generations. And it means consistently putting human rights at the center of U.S. foreign policy, opposing war and militarism, and pursuing accountability for human rights abuses wherever they occur.
We can do it — but we’ve got to prepare to fight back against the status quo that’s hell-bent on stopping our progress.
To prepare for the tough election year ahead and show everyone how big our movement has become, our campaign has set a goal of bringing in 3,000 grassroots contributions. Can you chip in any amount to help kick off our re-election campaign?

From the donors pouring large sums of money into the 5th District, to far-right Republicans who dedicate their time to attacking me with Islamophobic smears, so many people have tried to silence me and our movement over the past four years. Last election, my opponents and ultraconservative donors spent upwards of $20 million to try to unseat me and stop our movement in its tracks.
But we’re still here.
We can win this race and bring more people than ever into our movement — no matter how much money our opponents spend or how much hate they throw at us — because you’ve shown time and time again that you’re dedicated to our shared progressive vision. And you’re willing to organize and fight for it.
So today, I’m hoping you’ll keep up your support. Please chip in toward our 3,000-contribution goal to kick off this re-election campaign and continue fighting for the bold, progressive change we started together:

We're still in the middle of a pandemic, facing the gravest income inequality since the Great Depression, and dealing with the worst iteration of the Republican Party since segregation.
We can’t ignore these issues — we need to tackle them head-on. For the 5th District and Minnesotans, and for all working people, families, immigrants and refugees, and our movement.
And I know that together, we can. Thank you for supporting the Fifth District. And thank you for being part of a movement that never gives up in the fight for racial, social, environmental, and economic justice for all.
In solidarity,
