John, did you see this? 

Analysts at The New York Times are reporting that this will be one of the most competitive and expensive races of the cycle, meaning we have our work cut out for us.

Barbara Lee is ready to take her fight for progress to the Senate, but we need a surge of grassroots support to beat the odds and win this race. If you’re on Team Lee, will you chip in $5 right now to fuel our campaign and help Barbara secure a progressive future for all?

This was never going to be an easy fight, John. Only two Black women have been elected to the U.S. Senate in our almost 250-year history – and experts are already saying Barbara is facing a fundraising disadvantage in this race.

We know that Barbara can overcome the odds and become the only Black woman in the Senate. But we also know we need serious resources to spread our progressive message and win this race.

So please, will you rush $5 or more now to help Barbara win in California? Every dollar you give will go directly toward fueling our progressive movement to victory.

Thank you for standing with us in this fight.

– Team Barbara Lee
