Hi John — it’s
Morgan, I’m Team Cori’s Political Director.

I want to share with you some numbers that have been at the top of my mind
ever since we officially announced that Cori is running for re-election.
You’re a core part of our movement and it’s important to us that you
understand what we’re up against in this midterms election.

Here’s how much money Republicans raised to challenge Cori’s Squad Sisters
and progressive colleagues in Congress in 2020:

* $12.1 million (Lacy Johnson, challenging Ilhan Omar)
* $11.1 million (John Cummings, challenging Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez)

Here’s how many points Cori won her first race by:

* Three.

These numbers are an urgent reminder that we can’t take anything for
granted this election,
John. Dark money super PACs,
ultra-conservative groups, and Wall Street are prepared to pump millions
into our race in an effort to weaken our progressive movement and block
Cori’s chances of re-election.



That’s why today I’m reaching out personally to ask for your
support, John.
Together, we can keep Cori in office: [ [link removed] ]Will you chip in $13.17 (our
average donation) or anything you can to support our grassroots funded
re-election campaign?

From the moment Cori stepped foot in Congress, the far-right has made
attacking Cori a core plank in their agenda. White supremacists have made
countless violent threats on Cori’s life. The GOP will do everything in
its power to keep Cori from being re-elected because they're threatened by
the progressive movement she’s leading.

And it’s not just the GOP getting involved. Their friends on Wall Street
are prepared to spend big money to attack Cori. There’s no doubt they’re
going to spend millions to smear us as “too radical” and stop us from
bringing our people-first agenda to Congress.

That’s why we need to be prepared,
John. Victory in 2020 was made
possible by supporters like you who gave us the people-power we needed to
defeat a 20 year-incumbent. Together, we demanded the change our
communities deserve and sent the first activist from the movement in
defense of Black lives to Congress.

[ [link removed] ]Will you chip in $13.17 (our average donation) or anything you can
today to help us prepare for the flood of dark money the GOP and special
interests plan on spending in this race? We don’t accept a single cent
from corporate PACs and special interest groups — we’re relying on
donations from everyday folks to do this work.

Let’s do this,

Morgan
Political Director, Team Cori
