John,
The Federal Election Commission just made every candidate's fundraising numbers public and John, I'll be honest — we've been out-raised.
Our opponents have raised almost $1 million combined to defeat Jamaal. We just learned that this past quarter, they have raised nearly twice as much as us. If this trend continues, it will make winning re-election much harder for our movement.
With just 38 days until Election Day, and 28 days until people start voting, now is the time for us to turn things around. Please, rush a contribution of $3, or any amount, to power our movement to re-elect Jamaal.
Keeping pace with our opponents and building out our small-dollar grassroots donations is crucial to winning this race. There's no way we'll be able to knock enough doors, run enough ads, or connect with enough voters without a strong showing in fundraising right now.
Our opponents and their establishment backers would love nothing more than to make Jamaal a one-term member of Congress. But our movement for true progressive representation in NY-16 remains undeterred. You’ve helped us navigate every curve in this race, and I know our supporters will step up now.
Thank you for being on this team.
