Friend,
Before I ask you to make a contribution to Mandela Barnes' campaign for U.S. Senate in Wisconsin, I would like to take a moment to say why it's so important that we help him defeat Ron Johnson and expand the Senate majority.
Let me be very clear:
Ron Johnson is a self-serving multi-millionaire who voted to give huge tax breaks to himself and his billionaire donors. How pathetic is that?
Mandela Barnes can defeat him – but only if we're all in this together.
The latest Marquette poll shows Mandela trailing Ron Johnson by one point, and Mandela is currently up against millions of dollars in ugly right-wing super PAC ads. Now more than ever, he needs your help to regain the momentum in this race.
So before Friday's FEC fundraising deadline, Mandela is relying on a lot of donations to show there is strong grassroots support for his campaign. That's why I am asking:
If you've saved payment info with ActBlue Express, your donation will go through immediately:
In this time of unprecedented challenges in our country, we need an unprecedented response. We need a movement of people who will fight for justice and stand together against greed, oligarchy, authoritarianism, and bigotry.
Mandela Barnes is building that kind of movement through his campaign for U.S. Senate in Wisconsin. He is bringing together a multi-racial, multi-generational movement of people who understand that the billionaire class cannot have it all. At a time of obscene levels of income and wealth inequality, we must address the needs of working families in this country.
As the son of a public school teacher and General Motors worker, Mandela knows the struggles of the working class. And if we can elect him to the Senate, he will take on the billionaire class and large corporations that control a large part of the economy and exert enormous influence over our political system.
But the only way Mandela will run a successful campaign is if lots of people come together and get involved in the Wisconsin Senate race.
While Ron Johnson collects big checks from his special interest donors and corporate PACs, Mandela is counting on lots of people giving small donations before this Friday's FEC deadline.
Your contribution will ensure Mandela has the financial resources to flip Wisconsin's Senate seat. So I am asking you one more time:
It is important that we stand with candidates like Mandela who will have the guts to take on powerful special interests and help create a government that works for ALL of our people, not just the one percent.
Thank you for adding your contribution to his campaign for Friday's FEC deadline.
In solidarity,
Bernie Sanders
