We rely 100% on grassroots donations.
John, I'll get right to the point:
Since winning the primary election in August, our online fundraising has slowed dramatically. A small slowdown is natural after a busy period like an election, but we're starting to get nervous that our numbers won't pick up in time for our general election get-out-the-vote efforts.
With 18 days until Election Day, we really can't slow down now. That's why I'm hoping we can count on this grassroots movement to step up and help us make up the difference over the next few days.
John, we're asking: Will you chip in $5 or more now to help us close the gap and win on November 8? It's really important we receive enough contributions to stay on track with our projections and ensure we have the resources to keep Cori in Congress.
Chip in $5
We believe our movement should be grounded in people — not special interests. It's why Cori doesn't accept a cent from corporate PACs, and it's how she's able to fight for people-first solutions in Congress like the People's Response Act, Keeping Renters Safe Act, and Worker Safety in Climate Disasters Act.
But that means we rely 100% on grassroots donations of $5, $10, or $15 to power our movement to re-elect the first activist from the movement in defense of Black lives elected to federal office.
What we're able to raise right now, in the days leading up to November 8, will impact the number of doors we can knock and calls we can make before Election Day, so we can't take this lightly.
Please, if you can, add your first donation of the general election today to help power our campaign to re-elect Cori Bush.
Thank you,
Brady James
Finance, Team Cori
