John, we have all been taken aback by the events of the last 24 hours, and we know that November 8 might look far away on the calendar right now. But with the amount of work we have to do between now and then to elect candidates who will stand up for abortion rights and fight for working families, Election Day is practically around the corner.
That makes hitting our $420,000 online end-of-quarter goal especially important. We’ll explain more in a moment, but right now we’re running on a tight timeline. If you believe working families deserve more of a voice in Congress, chip in $3 to the Working Families Majority Fund before next week’s deadline.

We know these kinds of end-of-quarter filing goals can sound arbitrary, but they are real — and whether or not we meet them has a real impact.
Our on-the-ground and digital organizing has already been key to primary victories for WFP candidates this cycle like Summer Lee, Greg Casar, and Jamie McLeod-Skinner. When corporate interests and Republican dark money PACs poured money into defeating them, we were able to fight back and win because we had dedicated supporters like you on our side.
Training organizers, building WFP state and local chapters, and meeting voters where they are at is how we defeat Republicans and corporate-backed Democrats and change the status quo.
And now that the Supreme Court has stripped women and people seeking abortions of their long-held rights to control their bodies, the stakes of this year's elections are becoming that much higher.
Here’s the problem: the costs of organizing and reaching voters in all of these races can add up really quickly. In the coming days and weeks, WFP champions like Delia Ramirez and Mandela Barnes are coming down the home stretch in their own competitive primaries.
And while we mobilize in the streets, we need to be ramping up our organizing efforts to help WFP candidates win these important races at the same time, not slowing down.
To do that, we need to reach our $420,000 online end-of-quarter goal. Whether you’re able to chip in $5, or $15, your donation will have a direct impact on our fight for a better, more just future.

In solidarity,
All of us at the Working Families Party
P.S. Tomorrow, Sunday, June 26 at 8 PM ET/5 PM PT, we’ll be gathering at our next WFP Assembly to share how we intend to defy and fight back against the Supreme Court's attack on our rights. We’ll hear from special guests including reproductive justice activist Renee Bracey Sherman, as well as Jamie McLeod-Skinner and Alessandra Biaggi — two pro-choice women running for Congress to build a working families majority — and share how you can get involved in their campaigns. RSVP here to join us.
