We can end Washington corruption, rebuild the middle class, and save our democracy. But only if we keep growing our grassroots movement with grassroots donors in your state and across the country.
I'm committed to being the best president that money can't buy.
When I first launched my campaign, I announced I would take the time presidential candidates typically reserve for courting wealthy donors and instead, use it to spend time with supporters, volunteers, and staff across the country.
Together, we've built a powerful grassroots movement that will win the White House, Congress, state legislatures, and more.
But the truth is, our grassroots campaign is up against a big test. After this month, we'll release a public report on how much we've raised in January.
This report is going to set the tone for 2020, and we need those fundraising numbers to be as strong as possible. So with this deadline approaching, I'm asking:
When I ran for office for the first time, not very long ago, I had a lot to learn.
But here was the first — and most important — lesson I got: Nobody does this on their own.
I'm grateful down to my toes for everyone who knocks on doors, makes phone calls, texts their friends about our new plans, hosts debate watch parties, and chips in $2 at a time. For everyone who makes this campaign their own. For everyone who's in this fight all the way.
If — and only if — we fight side by side, we can beat the big banks, the fossil fuel giants, the huge pharmaceutical companies — everyone who's been rigging the rules and pulling the strings so our economy and our government only work for the wealthy and well-connected.
We can end Washington corruption, rebuild the middle class, and save our democracy. But only if we keep growing our grassroots movement with grassroots donors in D.C. and across the country.
