Friends —

With the clock ticking down ahead of tonight's mid-month fundraising deadline, we wanted to share three reasons to make your first $5 contribution to Ilhan Omar today:

1️⃣. With the Republican leadership making Ilhan one of their top-priority targets this campaign cycle, we've set some pretty ambitious fundraising goals to make sure we have the resources required to take them on.

2️⃣. But the truth is, while we started the month strong, things have slowed down a bit. And right now we're projecting to come up short of where we need to be today.

3️⃣. So we need to have a big hour — 60 minutes where everyone gives it everything we've got — to get back on track before midnight.

Our entire campaign is funded the right way — lots and lots of people chipping in small amounts. It all adds up quickly, but it's incredibly important that we keep up the pace if we're going to continue building our movement together.

We wouldn't ask if it weren't so critical to everything we do, so please:

Can you use this link and make a $5 contribution to stand with Ilhan Omar before midnight tonight? Anything you can add goes a long way.

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

Let's cross this finish line strong. Thank you in advance for adding anything you can.

In solidarity,

Team Ilhan
