John,

We’re going to be fully transparent with you because we’re accountable to you as a grassroots organization.

We’ve had a slow but steady decline in our fundraising over the last year. And since we just launched our 2024 Candidate Recruitment efforts, we really need to pick up on the pace of our December grassroots fundraising.

It takes a lot of resources, time, and effort to find community leaders like Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, Cori Bush, and Jamaal Bowman and then work with their campaigns from the very beginning.

If we don’t see an immediate pickup in our fundraising this month, we’re going to be faced with some tough choices in January. We’re not the DCCC, we don’t have tens of millions of dollars in the bank, we don’t take a dime from corporate PACs or billionaires.

If 10% of people who open this email each donate $3 in response to this email, then we would be able to catch up on this month’s fundraising at this critical time.

Will you please donate $3 today to help us continue to find, recruit, and elect more candidates like AOC? Every donation will truly make a difference for us.

Contribute $3

Thank you so much for your support,

Team JD
