John, with our last FEC end-of-quarter deadline before Election Day coming up next Friday, we’re about to ask if you’ll make a donation to support Barbara’s campaign.

But first, we want to be transparent about why your donation is so important.

Barbara is strongly favored to win her re-election race in California’s newly-drawn 12th district. Your donations will help us make sure of that, but the truth is your impact goes even further than just one race.

Your support will help us build progressive power at all levels of government — supporting Democrats up-and-down the ticket and ensuring critical ballot initiatives pass.

In what is sure to be an extremely close midterm election cycle, we’re not taking anything for granted. Your donations will allow us to build a broad voter outreach program so we can turn out Democrats and advance our progressive agenda.

Without special interest lobbyists or billionaire mega donors to call upon, Barbara is counting on grassroots supporters like you to fuel this work.

That’s why with this major fundraising deadline approaching, we need to ask:

Will you support Barbara’s re-election campaign with a $12 donation today? Every dollar makes a difference for a grassroots campaign like ours.

If you've saved your payment information with ActBlue Express, your donation will go through immediately:

Thank you for your support,

— Team Barbara Lee
