John,

Like you, I am seeking out people and leaders who can bring our communities the hope we so desperately need. I want to introduce you to one young leader I am pleased to support.

Michael Blake is running for Congress in New York’s 15th District because he truly BELIEVES in The Bronx. Michael Blake is not only of this new generation, but he is someone who knows from lived experience what it’s like to struggle and succeed in The Bronx.

Won’t you join me in your support of Michael Blake? Can you donate $15 in honor of the 15th District today?

Michael is a leader and an organizer, starting from his student days at Northwestern University. He followed this up as an organizer in Iowa for Barack Obama. In the White House under President Obama, Michael brought together entrepreneurs from across the nation. He worked to better the lives of his fellow New Yorkers in the State Assembly.

Michael’s life’s work has been about unifying people behind a common cause. He knows that anything can be achieved when people come together as one. That is how political power is gained, that is how the forces of hate are defeated, and that is how Michael will bring transformational change to The Bronx.

I hope you will join me in supporting Michael Blake. He is exactly who I’d want in Congress fighting alongside me. Please consider making a $15 donation to his campaign today.

In solidarity,

Barbara Lee
