John,
In the lead-up to a major deadline in a race like ours, there are two ways to try to reach a fundraising goal:
- Lean on corporate sponsors, high-powered lobbyists, establishment backers, and a corrupt political machine to help you coast to re-election
- Build a people-powered progressive movement that gives a voice to marginalized communities
Can you guess which one Rep. Payne Jr.'s going with, John?
That’s right — it’s number one.
As we speak, Rep. Payne Jr. is probably on the phone with his corporate donors, frantically trying to out-raise us again using money from corporations like Raytheon, Wells Fargo, and ExxonMobil.
He thinks he can spend years failing to show up to work, failing to take his job seriously, and failing to deliver for our community without any consequences.
And it’s up to us to prove him wrong.
If we meet our February goal, we’ll show Rep. Payne Jr. that no number of corporate donors can compete with our committed, energized, and organized grassroots movement. Click here to rush a $27 contribution and help us do it.
