Danielle,
Right now, our campaign is working to help elect Democrats up and down the ballot in November — without holding a single closed-door fundraiser.
And it’s all thanks to grassroots donors.
But now, we're facing the first end-of-month fundraising deadline for this quarter’s FEC reporting period tomorrow at midnight. After the deadline, we'll only have two more months to hit our fundraising goal.
So, we’ll get to it, Danielle: We want these fundraising numbers to be as strong as possible. But right now, we're behind where we want to be to hit our goal.
We're not going to beat Donald Trump and down-ballot Republicans by backing down — we'll beat them by fighting back.
We fight back when we build a grassroots movement — a movement that doesn't take money from fossil fuel giants, big banks, or Big Pharma.
We fight back when we call out corruption in Washington and have Democrats up and down the ballot advocating for the biggest anti-corruption platform since Watergate.
We’re asking for your help today to keep powering this fight, Danielle. With your help, we can hit our goal before tomorrow’s fundraising deadline and keep growing this grassroots movement.
In a moment, I'm going to ask you to make your first contribution to Warren Democrats before Thursday's midnight fundraising deadline. But first, I wanted to explain why your contribution would be so
Danielle,
In a moment, I'm going to ask you to make your first contribution to Warren Democrats before Thursday’s midnight fundraising deadline. But first, I wanted to explain why your contribution would be so important right now:
We've set an ambitious April fundraising goal to kick off our robust organizing plan that will hold the Trump administration accountable and help elect Democrats up and down the ballot.
And whether or not we reach this goal depends only on the number of grassroots supporters who chip in before Thursday’s deadline. Because we’re 100% grassroots-funded and I wouldn't have it any other way.
It's a big goal. But our grassroots team has powered this movement further than anyone could have imagined. And with supporters like you by my side, I know we can reach it together.
When she was running for president, one of Elizabeth's favorite things to do was calling grassroots donors to say thank you. She talked with teachers, nurses, bus operators, and anyone who chipped in
Danielle,
When she was running for president, one of Elizabeth’s favorite things to do was calling grassroots donors to say thank you.
She talked with teachers, nurses, bus operators, and anyone who chipped in — even just $1 — to help grow our grassroots movement.
She got to hear what was on their minds and what issues pulled them into this fight.
Some politicians rely on focus groups or lobbyists to tell them where to stand, but Elizabeth fights from the heart. And her phone calls with grassroots supporters gave her another chance to hear about how to make our country work for working families.
Plus, it’s always nice to get a chance to say thank you.
She’d want to hear about how you, your family, and your community are holding up during this crisis. And you could talk with her about how we can rebuild our country while putting people, not billionaires and giant corporations, first.
We could all use a little more connection these days. And even if she doesn’t get a chance to tell you this herself, Elizabeth would want you to know that she’s grateful for everything you do.
Side by side, we’re going to root out corruption and put power in the hands of working people. But it’s only possible if we stay in this fight.
I'll just be blunt: If Democrats don't keep the House in 2020, it's going to be almost impossible to get anything done for working people in 2021. And if Republicans take back the House, you know...
I’ll just be blunt, Danielle: If Democrats don’t keep the House in 2020, it’s going to be almost impossible to get anything done for working people in 2021.
And if Republicans take back the House, you know what’ll be on their wish list: giving tax breaks to giant corporations and billionaires, ripping health insurance away from tens of millions of Americans, and cutting Social Security, Medicare, and Medicaid.
We need to get in this fight — and that starts with protecting the Democratic swing seats we fought so hard to win in 2018. That’s one powerfully important way we can make sure our government puts people first as we dig our way out of this public health and economic crisis.
Last week, as part of our first round of Warren Democrats endorsements, I endorsed four terrific first-term members of the U.S. House of Representatives running for re-election: Sharice Davids, Abby Finkenauer, Katie Porter, and Lauren Underwood.

Now, I’d like to tell you a little more about these four women:
Sharice Davids (KS-3) has spent her career fighting for economic equality and opportunities for working families. She made history in 2018 when she became one of the first two Native American women to serve in Congress, as well as the first openly LGBTQ person to represent Kansas in Washington.
Sharice has been a champion for Kansas families throughout her first term, fighting to lower the cost of health care and prescription drugs, root out corruption in Washington, and end the epidemic of gun violence in this country. We need to keep her in the House and in the majority, and I'm proud to once again endorse her historic campaign.
The working families of Iowa's 1st District need and deserve a champion who listens and learns from the people. Abby Finkenauer (IA-1) is a relentless fighter for northeast Iowa and working Iowans. I'm endorsing her to keep our majority and put our families at the center of our politics. The stakes have never been higher.
And I am so proud to be supporting Katie Porter (CA-45) in her run for re-election for Congress. I have known Katie for years, as one of my students, and most recently as a national co-chair of my campaign for president.
It has been one of my greatest joys to see her succeed and get results for American families. For nearly two decades, Katie has been a fierce consumer advocate. Every day since elected to Congress, she has worked to fight corruption and hold corporations and members of this administration accountable. Katie flipped a red district by running on the progressive values that are at the core of what Warren Democrats stand for. Katie has always had a vision of how the government can work for the people, and she's proven she's willing to fight for that vision.
Lauren Underwood (IL-14) is a trailblazer in Congress — her informed, health care–focused leadership has made her an excellent representative for her district. She is a formidable champion, spearheading the fight for affordable, quality health care in Congress. Her important, bold work to lower insulin costs, expand care, and improve maternal health for women nationwide is why I'm proud to endorse Lauren.
At a time when health care is the most pressing issue for so many families, it's critical that we have the voice of a registered nurse and health policy expert in Congress. The people of Illinois’ 14th District deserve an accountable, compassionate leader to make their voices heard in Washington. I look forward to continuing to work with Lauren in Congress to create lasting change in our communities.
Sharice, Abby, Katie, and Lauren each flipped Republican seats in 2018 — and Republicans are determined to take those seats back this November. For a lot of members in swing districts, the first re-election campaign is the most difficult — and the most critical.
Sharice, Abby, Katie, and Lauren will keep making us proud as they fight for working families — and for a just recovery to this crisis. But they only have a few days left to hit their critical monthly fundraising goals, and they need our help.
