John – Bernie Sanders just messaged you yesterday about Mandela
Barnes’s FEC deadline and it's worth reading.
Mandela still needs your help as these next few weeks ahead of the August
9th primary are critical – so if you could dig deep to help win this race
and show Republican extremists just how strong Mandela’s campaign is, this
is absolutely the time to give.

a contribution today to help Save the Senate and elect Mandela Barnes to
the U.S. Senate.
[ [link removed] ]PITCH IN NOW
John,
I am writing to ask you to make a contribution to DFA and Mandela Barnes'
campaign for U.S. Senate in Wisconsin. Please give me a chance to explain
why your contribution is so important – especially today.
Tonight at midnight, Mandela faces the final FEC fundraising deadline
before his primary. Shortly after it ends, he is legally required to
publicly report his fundraising numbers.
The media, Mandela's opponents, and his allies will all look at this
report to determine whether he is building the kind of movement that can
win Wisconsin's Senate seat and defeat Ron Johnson.
Mandela is someone who will fight for an agenda that works for all of our
people, not just those at the top. And unlike most candidates for U.S.
Senate, he comes from a working-class background. His mom was a public
school teacher and his dad worked 3rd shift at General Motors.
The only way that Mandela will have the financial resources to win this
race is from lots of people contributing what they can. So before this FEC
deadline ends, it is very important that he receives as many donations as
possible.
That's why I am asking:
[ [link removed] ]Can you add your contribution for DFA and Mandela Barnes before his FEC
deadline on July 20? He is relying on lots of donations in order to fund
his campaign.

At a time of obscene income and wealth inequality, outrageous corporate
greed, and the growing concentration of oligarchic power, it’s important
that we elect progressive candidates who are prepared to challenge the
status quo.
Mandela is running for U.S. Senate because he understands that we cannot
continue to tolerate a system where the very rich get much richer while
working families struggle to put food on the table and afford basic
necessities.
Mandela understands that we must strive to be a nation that eliminates
poverty and homelessness, and where every person has a livable income, the
right to join a union, and increased influence on the job.
And by the way, Mandela is running his campaign the right way, funded by
tens of thousands of people giving small donations – no corporate PACs or
special-interest donors.
But right now, he is up against some very wealthy primary opponents who
are spending millions of dollars of their own money to self-fund their
campaigns. In order to keep up, Mandela needs our help ahead of this FEC
deadline.
So I am asking one more time:
[ [link removed] ]Can you please make a contribution to DFA and Mandela Barnes' campaign
today? Any amount you can give will make a big difference for his
campaign.
As long as we are in this together, there is nothing we cannot accomplish.
Thank you for adding your contribution to Mandela's campaign before his
important FEC deadline on July 20.
In solidarity,
Bernie Sanders
