In just a moment, I’m going to ask you to make
your first donation to
our campaign for president. I hope you’ll let me explain why this matters
so much right now.
I’m running for president because I believe that, in 2020, justice is on
the ballot.
When in our country, there is a father anywhere who will be sitting at his
kitchen table tonight, trying to figure out how to pay the bills through
the end of the month, economic justice is on the ballot.
I'm running to enact the largest middle class tax cut our country has had
in generations.
When in America, on any given day, there is a mother sitting in the
parking lot of the Emergency Room, her child has a raging fever -- and
she’s hesitant to go through those doors because she knows she'll be out
of pocket a massive deductible. Health care justice is on the ballot.
I'm running for president to ensure health care is a right and not just a
privilege for those who can afford it.
When in America, our babies have to go to school to endure a drill during
which they're taught to hide in a closet from a shooter, justice for our
children is on the ballot.
I'm running for president to take executive action to curb our country’s
gun violence epidemic -- a major difference between me and my friends on
the debate stage.
When in America, teachers are working two and three jobs because they
can’t afford to follow their calling, educational justice is on the
ballot.
I am running for president to enact the first federal investment to close
the teacher pay gap.
When in America, we have a policy of putting babies in cages, separating
them from their parents in the name of border security, justice for
immigrants is on the ballot.
I'm running for president because I believe that immigrants have made
America great -- and they must not be vilified.
Here’s the epitome of what it means when I say justice is on the ballot:
nobody is above the law, including the President of the United States. We
have a criminal living in the White House, and it’s on us to get him out.
Listen: I've been in this race for about 10 months, so I'm all about real
talk. I know that there are a lot of conversations about which candidate
voters consider to be "electable."
I've heard this conversation before, and it goes something like this: "I
don't know if America is ready for a woman of color to be President of the
United States." Or, "It's not your turn," and "It's not your time."
This is not the first time I've heard this conversation. I've heard this
conversation in every campaign I’ve won.
I share this with you not to say anything about me, but to say something
about you and who I know the American people to be. We have the ability to
see what is possible, even when we've never seen it before.
I’m reaching out to you today to ask you to invest in our historic
campaign for president. Right now, we’re up against a critical mid-month
deadline. Whether or not we reach it will determine if we can invest fully
in our campaign strategy. I wouldn’t ask you if it wasn’t important.
Can you add your
first donation to our campaign today? Justice is on the
ballot in this election, and I’m counting on you to join me in this fight
for the future of our country:

I believe in an America where everyone has access to health care, where
our children can go to school and feel safe, and when we greet a perfect
stranger, we see a neighbor. That's why I'm running for president.
For The People,
— Kamala Harris
