John,

We operate on a pretty tight budget, especially compared to other political organizations. The truth is that folks tend to donate around big moments, like right before a primary election — but our work is year-round.

Take a look at the last few months on our ActBlue dashboard:
The truth is that if we were able to raise what we raised in May, every month of the year, we would be in a much better position to recruit and elect more leaders like AOC and Cori Bush.

The work that we do takes a lot of time and resources. We recruit candidates who will truly represent the communities they serve and then help those candidates with every aspect of their campaigns – from organizing to digital strategy to fundraising.

From helping AOC win in 2018 to recruiting fearless leaders like Jamaal Bowman and Cori Bush to run and win, we’re making real change and shifting the Democratic Party to truly represent the people.

We’re up against our July fundraising deadline in less than 72 hours and we’re so close to reaching our end-of-month fundraising goal. Will you chip in $3 to help us cross the finish line?
