John,

I wanted to reach out and explain why emails like this one are so
important. 

In 49 days, my name will be on the general election ballot when St. Louis
goes to the polls. But well before my name was on any ballot, I made a
decision to run for office to protect my kids from being the next children
killed by police, to ensure no one else would go without a home or food as
I had done, and to create a new kind of politics that works for regular,
everyday people. 

A big part of that decision was that this would be a 100% people-powered
campaign, funded without a cent from corporate PACs. Most members of
Congress fund their re-election campaigns with checks from corporate
mega-donors, especially in must-win races like ours. 

But I'm not running to fight for big pharma or the fossil fuel lobby. I’m
running for office because everyday people like you and me deserve leaders
who are unbought by corporate interests; we deserve leaders who will fight
for us in pursuit of true justice for all.

[ [link removed] ]My team set a goal to raise $83,500 by our end-of-quarter deadline on
September 30, so I'm reaching out for help,
John. If you're with me in this
work, please chip in $5 or more to power our grassroots
movement for bold, progressive change.

One of the hardest parts of running for office is asking folks like you
for your hard-earned dollars to support our movement. I know that donating
to a political campaign is a luxury I couldn't afford in the past. But
please know that every dollar directly goes to organizing for St. Louis,
paying our hard-working staff that’s doing the boots-on-ground work, and
setting up our office — and movement — for success.

You might not think $5, $10, or $25 goes a long way. But the truth is
there is a lot of power in folks like you chipping in however much they
can, as often as they can. If we keep working like this, putting our
donations together — we’re confident we can transform our politics and
bring transformative change to our communities.

[ [link removed] ]John, if
you can, will you make a donation of $5 or more to help hit
our critical end-of-quarter fundraising goal? Hitting deadlines like this
is critical to building a campaign ready for re-election.

Thank you for all of your support. 

Your Congresswoman loves you,

Cori
