Last week, I asked you to make a contribution to Mandela Barnes' campaign
for U.S. Senate in Wisconsin. This week, all 3 of his major opponents
dropped out of the race and endorsed Mandela -- making him the presumptive
nominee.
Republican attacks on this progressive candidate will start very soon.
Now, it is even more critical that Mandela have the resources to fight
hard and defeat Senator Ron Johnson in November.
[ [link removed] ]Can you add a contribution for Mandela Barnes? He is relying on lots of
donations in order to fund his campaign.
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. It is very
important that he receives as many donations as possible.
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.
So I am asking one more time:
[ [link removed] ]Can you please make a contribution to 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.
In solidarity,
-- Bernie Sanders
