John,
We have great news to share — Nida Allam, our WFP-endorsed candidate for North Carolina's Sixth Congressional District, is having a baby. We can't wait to welcome her baby girl into the world and elect a new working mom to Congress!
We need more working moms in Congress. There are 24 million working moms in America, but women with young kids only make up 6% of Congress.1 Nida was absolutely right when she said that having more moms in Congress will bring more power and urgency to our fight for climate action, Medicare for All, and universal childcare.
Year after year, temperatures rise, storms worsen, and the people least responsible for destroying our planet continue to bear the biggest brunt of the upheaval wrought by the climate crisis. We have a responsibility to future generations — like Nida's new baby — to ease that burden by taking bold action now. That's why we need Nida in Congress.
But with the North Carolina primary less than a month away, we're asking you to pitch in $3 right now to spread her message to voters and grow our movement in NC-06. Can we count on you to contribute to Nida Allam's campaign today?

With corporate Democrats and Republicans in DC fighting to keep Congress from getting anything done at all, we need bold new representatives who are unafraid to challenge the status quo and make real change. We need champions that understand the lives of working families and can take our needs directly to Congress.
From universal pre-K and free community college to addressing the climate crisis, we need to radically reimagine a better future for not only our sake but for our children's and the next generation's.
We can win, John — Nida's election and the transformative policies we dream of. But first, we need your help.
Will you contribute $3 today to Nida Allam’s campaign? Whatever you’re able to give will go a long way towards making sure leaders like Nida can champion the policy that affects our lives in Congress.

In solidarity,
Team WFP
