HORRIBLE NEWS: “House Democrats are retiring in numbers not seen in decades.” 30 Democrats have retired, compared to only 13 Republicans.
That means we'll have to work even harder to win and save the Democratic House Majority. We need your help right away!
5X Match: Activated (expires soon!)

John, the math is punishing right now.
• Donald Trump and the GOP have over $300 million to spend on taking back the House.
• Over 30 Democrats have retired, more than double the Republicans.
• The Majority is only a razor-thin 5 seats right now.
The outlook is pretty bleak but luckily we still have time to turn things around. But we can't afford to lose another day... We need record numbers of folks donating to help us keep up — as an incentive, we're activating a 5X match on every donation for a limited time.

Every retirement makes it that much harder for us to win:
We know from history that open seats — those without an incumbent running — are more likely to flip parties than seats where the incumbent is seeking re-election.
“There is a solid ... correlation between high retirement levels and House seat losses .” — CNN
That's bad news, because Republicans only need to flip 5 House seats!
CNN continues: “According to the Cook Political Report's rankings, there are 38 competitive Democratic-held seats compared to just 19 Republican-held seats. With the House Democratic Majority so thin, that disparity in competitive seats is a very ominous omen for Democrats' chances this fall.”
The math is bad. Like one CNN contributor said: “Add it up and you see LOTS of Democratic vulnerability and very little Republican danger.”
The stakes are too high for us to give up — please tell us you're not giving up either. Make your 5X matched donation before the match expires.
