John,
Did you see this important message from our team earlier this week? (I've forwarded it for you in case you've missed it.)
Here's the short of it: our campaign now has not one, not two, but THREE challengers. Our fight to keep Jamaal in Congress is growing more difficult by the day.
In fact, it's why we've set a $8,000 mid-month goal to respond to this alarming news. And while we're almost to our goal, we have less than 6 hours left to meet it. Can you rush a donation right now?
John, it would mean a lot to me, Jamaal, and our movement if you can chip in $3 to help us shore up the gap during the final hours.
Your $3 donation to our campaign will show our numerous challengers the true strength of our movement — and that we're not going anywhere. That's powerful.

John,
Just last week, a third challenger officially entered the race to unseat Jamaal from the House of Representatives.
This means that the race to stop our progressive movement in Congress is growing — and that establishment attention and money will only start to increase from here through our primary in June.
That's why we've set a $8,000 mid-month goal to respond to this alarming news — and to tell every single one of our opponents that while we may not be funded by corporate PACs and lobbyists, we are still strong and that our grassroots movement isn't going anywhere.
Now more than ever, we need leaders like Jamaal in Congress. As establishment politicians work to suppress our progress and act in half-measures, we need a leader who is determined to push back against this and keep our progressive priorities top of mind while legislating.
As a grassroots movement, our power comes directly from the people to ensure that Jamaal will advocate for our needs and not the needs of predatory corporate PACs and special interest groups that actively fight against our values.
Our average email donation this month is $24.25, but any amount will make a meaningful difference. Please consider chipping in today.
In solidarity,
Bowman for Congress
