John - I am writing to ask you to make a contribution to
Mandela Barnes' campaign for U.S. Senate in Wisconsin. I hope you will
give me a moment to explain why your contribution is so important to his
campaign.

Mandela is running to defeat Republican incumbent Ron Johnson, one of the
most reactionary and self-serving members of the U.S. Senate. A recent
poll shows Mandela down by one point, and he is up against some very
powerful special interests who are spending obscene amounts of money to
try to defeat him.

So Mandela needs your help, especially before his FEC fundraising deadline
at the end of this month.

Ron Johnson is someone who relies on corporate interests to fund his
campaign. But Mandela is funding his campaign the right way -- from lots
of people making small donations.

That is the only way he is going to have the resources to win this race,
and that is why I need to ask:

[ [link removed] ]Can you please make a contribution to Mandela Barnes' campaign for U.S.
Senate in Wisconsin? As long as we are in this together, we are going to
send Mandela to the Senate and expand the majority.

At this moment in American history -- in the midst of massive income and
wealth inequality, a global pandemic, and the existential threat of
climate change -- it has never been more important to elect candidates
like Mandela who will fight for the working class of this country.

We need to elect more candidates who will take on corporate greed,
authoritarianism, and bigotry and who are prepared to fight for justice.
In order to do that, we must bring our people together in a
multi-generational, multi-racial movement to take on the big-money
interests that have so much political and economic power in our country.

Mandela Barnes is building that kind of movement through his campaign in
Wisconsin. And if he wins in November, he will continue our struggle for
justice in the U.S. Senate.

First, we need to come together to defeat a Republican extremist who
denies the reality of climate change, participated in a scheme to overturn
the 2020 election results, and has repeatedly sided with corporate
interests at the expense of working people.

But this Wisconsin Senate race isn't just about replacing Ron Johnson.
It's also about expanding the Senate majority so we can finally have the
votes to pass meaningful legislation to address the many crises we face.

Mandela Barnes is in a very close race right now, and he is relying on
grassroots support in order to fund his campaign between now and Election
Day. So I am asking you one more time:

[ [link removed] ]Please make a contribution to Mandela Barnes' campaign for U.S. Senate
in Wisconsin. He is rejecting all corporate PAC money, and your
contribution today will ensure he has the financial resources to flip this
seat.

We are engaged in many struggles right now. We are trying to save the
planet from the ravages of climate change. We're trying to create an
economy that works for all and not just the billionaire class. We're
trying to defend our democracy against those who are moving us toward
authoritarianism. And that's just to name a few.

But, in the midst of all these struggles, we cannot simply remain on the
defensive. We need to continue building our movement to transform this
country.

That means standing with candidates like Mandela Barnes who will take on
powerful special interests. Thank you for adding a contribution to his
campaign today.

In solidarity,

-- Bernie Sanders
