Hello team! We're emailing to ask for something a little different than usual this evening.

As you may know, tomorrow at midnight is our official June FEC fundraising deadline. And we've got a bit of a problem on our hands.

This month, it looks like we're on pace to reach our individual contribution goal. That's great! But the average donation amount from each of those contributions has dropped... considerably.

This time last year? It was about $29. This time last quarter? Just over $25. But so far this month, we're at $19 and some change.

Now, that difference might not seem like a big deal, but over the course of an entire FEC deadline, it adds up to a LOT.

These are resources we need to continue building our movement and help Ed keep up the fight for our bold agenda in the Senate. So what can we do? The way we see it, with the clock ticking down there are two options:

1. LOTS more donations from lots more people.
2. Donations made in (even slightly!) higher amounts than usual.

Normally when we ask supporters to make their first online contribution, we ask for $3. But since we've fallen off the pace here in June, we need to up the ante. We need to ask you to do something big today:

Can you to add your $10 contribution to Ed Markey's re-election campaign before tomorrow's FEC deadline? Every donation will go directly toward organizing our movement and building progressive power nationwide.

CONTRIBUTE $10

Thanks for chipping in today if you can. We know it's a big ask, but we hope you take it as a sign of how important your support is to this campaign.

- Team Markey
