Team,

We’re coming up on a huge public fundraising deadline, and I can honestly say this is our most important fundraising goal yet.

This quarter alone, Ilhan has faced unprecedented attacks. The president dedicated a chunk of his rally in Minneapolis to shouting out racist conspiracy theories about her. Facebook is profiting off fake ads that are spreading disinformation. Most recently, GOP candidates for Congress -- including one of Ilhan’s opponents -- called for her to be lynched.

The people sharing these lies and launching bad-faith attacks are trying to drown out Ilhan’s for-the-people agenda. They see the progress she’s making in fighting for healthcare, clean air and water, and stable housing as human rights. Every time she introduces new legislation or speaks truth to power, they shout their hate a little louder.

We need to start the election year out strong by combating every lie, every conspiracy theory, with small dollars. This campaign proudly rejects corporate PAC money and depends on grassroots dollars to power Ilhan’s work for progress.

This campaign counts on you, team.

Our $500,000 December fundraising goal is more than a number -- it’s a milestone that we know is possible thanks to past support from people like you. Will you step up to donate $10 or more so we don’t fall short of our goal?
