Hi John, 

Just a quick update on our goal: Several people stepped up and joined the ranks of our recurring donors, and we are so thankful. We mean it when we say every little bit helps – and recurring contributions help the most!

We are still over 250 recurring donors shy of our goal before the May 17th primaries though. So if you haven’t had a chance to sign up for your monthly donation, would you take a moment to do so today?

→ Yes, I will become a monthly contributor now!

If you can’t commit to a monthly contribution right now, we understand. If you’re able to give a one-time donation today it would really help us catch up from last month’s fundraising gap and get ready for our next elections.

→ I will give a one-time donation today.

From all of us at Brand New Congress, thank you for joining our movement for justice.

John -- The stakes of this election year keep getting higher, and time is speeding up. Look at how close we are to our next round of elections.

Brand New Congress candidates have primaries stretching all the way to the end of August, and then we need to get ready for the general election!

Our candidates count on BNC to provide training, campaign strategy, and volunteers to help them get out the vote. Building and maintaining that infrastructure is year-round work, so we need to grow now.

The best way to support BNC is with a monthly recurring contribution. Right now we have a little under 900 active recurring donors, and our most common donations are $25 or less per month.

I’ve set a goal to recruit another 300 recurring donors in the next 10 days before the polls open on May 17th. Will you sign up for a $25 (or any amount) recurring contribution today?

BNC is proud to be 100% grassroots-funded. In fact, over 99% of our donations are small-dollar, individual contributions. Our supporters are regular folks who give what they can because they want their government to work for working people.

There is so much on the line this year. Republicans are descending further and further into the extreme while Democrats in control of Congress refuse to hold them accountable.

The problems we need to solve – the climate crisis, the constant attacks on voting rights, reproductive rights, other civil liberties, and the ever-widening gaps of wealth and opportunity – require bold thinking and urgent action.

We need lawmakers who serve people, not profits. We’ve got our work cut out for us in 2022, but we know we can win with your support.
