from Donna Edwards: They want to stop us.

Ellen, our opponent just announced he raised 1.14 million dollars in the last quarter.

His donors are stepping up with more big checks. Why? Because they want to stop the progressive, grassroots movement we're building.

We've set a goal of 500 grassroots donations in the next 48 hours to respond and send the message this Senate race isn't about money, it's about people. If we hit it, everyone will know that progressives are ready to fight and take on our opponent's big money donors.

Can I count on you to pitch in $100 towards this goal?


Winning this race is key to a progressive Senate and building the Democratic Party we need to fight for the people, not just the super rich. That's why big money donors and special interests are going all in against us, and why I need your help to fight back.

In The New York Times, this race was called "a fight over the future of the Democratic Party." Make no mistake, this race will have a defining role in the 2016 election.

Make sure everyone knows that grassroots progressives are ready to win. Pitch in $100 and help us hit 500 donations in the next 48 hours.

Thank you for being a part of this,

Donna
