Friends -

Is there ANYTHING we can say to convince you to make a $5 contribution to stand with Ilhan Omar today?

What if we told you that this month we're facing a critical FEC fundraising deadline, and we're counting on your support to stay on pace for the month?

How about if we told you that our opponents are going to use this deadline as a measure of the strength of our movement, and they want nothing more than to see any signs of our momentum slowing down?

And what if we told you that your support is critical because Ilhan doesn't take a cent from corporate PACs, and our campaign is funded by small-dollar, grassroots donations?

It's all true.

If you've been waiting for the right time to make your first online contribution, today is the perfect day. So please:

Can you make a donation — of $5 or anything you can — before our mid-month fundraising deadline ends at midnight tonight? The only way this movement works is if we're in it together.

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

Thank you,

Team Ilhan
