Friends,

One billionaire is buying his way onto the Democratic debate stage, and one is buying his way out of it.

California businessman Tom Steyer has spent millions of his own personal fortune to saturate your airwaves and news feeds to qualify again for this month's debate. And just this week, we saw former New York City Mayor Mike Bloomberg break records and surpass OVER ONE HUNDRED MILLION dollars in ads around the country -- while maintaining that he would skip some of the early nominating contests.

Either way -- this is not how democracy is supposed to work.

Since the day that this campaign launched, we have relied on grassroots support to power this campaign.

So if you agree, if you want to keep Joe's momentum strong going into the next debate and through to our public end-of-year fundraising deadline, will you chip in $5 to elect Joe Biden right now?

Before you close this, please remember that democracy is all about participation.

If Joe Biden is the next president, he will push to get private money out of our elections. That means no more self-funded billionaires parachuting in without doing the hard work of building support from voters like you.

But if we are going to get there, we NEED you to make sure Joe Biden's campaign is as strong and people-powered as possible today:
