“Why now, Faiz? You send a bunch of these emails, so why should I make my first donation after reading this one?”
I get this question a lot. So I hope you’ll give me a chance at an answer. Because today, there are two very good reasons.
First, we are less than one month away from voting. Yes. Less than one month. And what we are seeing now is Pete Buttigieg and Joe Biden’s super PAC spending a lot of wealthy people’s money to increase their campaigns’ early-state advertising.
We cannot let that go unanswered. And Bernie needs your help, or we risk falling behind.
Next, the debate tomorrow night. We are hoping for a huge number of individual donations before Bernie gets off the stage tomorrow night. Not just to fund our campaign, but because each sends a message that we are a grassroots campaign that can beat Trump.
So, with this debate tomorrow and our need to compete with the big money flooding into this race, we are asking:
Thank you, again and as always, for being such an important part of this campaign. Truth is, without you and the grassroots support for Bernie, there would be no campaign. And these donations are a HUGE part of that.
In solidarity,

We hope you'll stay, because emails are such an important part of how we organize and how we raise money. In fact, there is no single greater source for our campaign's fundraising than emails like this one. And that's important, because no one person, not even Bernie Sanders, can take on Trump and the billionaire class alone.
Before you go about the rest of your day, help power our fight against the billionaire class by making a contribution today.
