Why I’m asking

This is a big moment for us. On Monday night, I announced my plan to take action on common-sense gun reform within my first 100 days as president. Already, both the NRA and Donald Trump, Jr. have attacked our campaign. Make no mistake, our opponents -- both those running in the Democratic primary and Trump's team -- are watching our fundraising performance right now to get a sense of how strong our campaign is. I will be honest: at the end of this email, I am going to ask you to make a contribution to power our campaign for president. I want you to know why it's so important, and what difference your contribution will make. The money we raise can't capture the powerful conversations about the future of our country I've had with people on the campaign trail. And fundraising can't measure the passion of our grassroots activists and volunteers who are fired up and ready to get to work -- to do more -- to win this campaign. But our fundraising does have direct impacts on the choices our campaign makes right now. It helps us make big investments in our organization that will grow our movement. And it helps us respond to dishonest attacks. Our campaign finance system is stacked against everyday people -- corporations and dark-money groups are able to spend as much as they want to sway our democracy. Let's be clear: this is wrong -- but it is what we are up against. But from day one, I made a commitment to you: our campaign will reject all contributions from corporate PACs and federal lobbyists -- instead, putting our campaign in the hands of the people. We are already facing attacks from Donald Trump's allies -- including the NRA -- and it will only get tougher from here. There will be nasty attacks and millions spent against us to stop our campaign. But I've been taking on tough fights my entire life. I'm not afraid of them. Especially knowing I have you in my corner. So here is where I ask you: can you step up today with a contribution to power our campaign for president? If you've saved your payment information with ActBlue Express, your donation will go through immediately: Chip in $5 now Chip in $25 now Chip in $50 now Chip in $100 now Chip in $250 now Another Amount At the end of each month, I always look to see the growing number of grassroots contributors who are pitching in what they can to our campaign, whether it's $5, $10, or $50. It makes me so proud to know we're building a movement of people pitching in what they can to make a difference. I hope your name will be on that list, too. Thank you for all that you've done -- and will do -- to power our movement.
