This is important to me (please read)

Hi there, it's Lisa Blunt Rochester — do you have a sec? I know our campaign for Senate means a lot to so many people. The significance of it isn't lost on me as the first woman and person of color running to represent Delaware in the Senate. So before I go on, can I ask that you chip in $10 or…

A $5 movement for our future

Friends — $5. That amount is so crucial to meeting our goal before our April fundraising deadline. You may be wondering what a $5 contribution can possibly do when we’re up against corporate PACs, fossil fuel interests, and far-right mega-donors who want to stop our movement in its tracks. The t…

“If everyone reading this"

Friends — You’ve probably heard or read me say the phrase, “If everyone reading this chipped in right now, we’d meet our goal today.” It’s kind of a mind-blowing idea, isn’t it? A contribution of $5 or $10 may not seem like much. And it’s certainly true that one person’s contribution alone isn’t…

playing catch up..

Friend — Truth is, we have to play a little bit of catch up this month. We did an incredible job hitting our big FEC fundraising goal last month, but so far our April fundraising is falling far behind. Look. I don’t want to be spending my time writing fundraising emails like this, trust me. I wo…

I’m making it official:

It is an honor to be in this fight with you Hi friends, I wanted you to hear the news from me: I’m officially running for re-election to represent Massachusetts’ 7th District. When I first ran for Congress in 2018, some folks cynically said nothing would change. That a Democrat is a Democrat. Tha…

Friends — I usually wouldn’t send this email. I don’t like to send too many emails to you. And I try not to reach out on a Sunday when many folks are rightfully taking some time for themselves. But the reason I’m reaching out despite that is because, frankly, we’re behind on our goals and we are…

Radically honest

At the end of the month we’re legally required to report our fundraising numbers to the FEC. Friend — I’m sure you know by now that I try to be radically honest about our fundraising when I send you these emails. So here’s the truth: March 31st is an FEC deadline, which means that at the end of t…

Climate justice for all

Sign On: No National Abortion Ban!

Friend — Republican extremists in Congress have made their goal clear: if they can get the votes, they will pass a national abortion ban. They don’t care that an overwhelming majority of Americans oppose a national ban. They don’t care how many lives will be put in danger or upended. That’s why …

It’s official, I have a well-funded opponent running against me for Senate.

The MAGA Republican machine couldn’t find a single Republican in Massachusetts to run against me — so they brought in someone from Rhode Island. It's official: John Deaton, a well-funded Republican, has launched a campaign to run against me for Senate in Massachusetts. Apparently, the MAGA Repub…

I don't want to ask for too much.

The truth is, I don't want to ask for too much. But as you know, with the end of the month tonight comes an important fundraising deadline for our campaign. We set an ambitious goal for February, and today is our last chance to hit that goal and prove that our movement for a Green New Deal is st…

70 people (including you?)

Friends — We’ve had a slow February and our fundraising has fallen a good bit behind where we hoped it would be as we approach our deadline tomorrow at midnight. Believe us, these goals are not arbitrary. We set fundraising goals so that our campaign and our movement can have the resources we ne…
