I didn’t think we would win

Friend,

When I first ran for the Minneapolis School Board, I didn’t think we would win. I thought we would stand up for our community and share important concerns.

But I never imagined how many of my neighbors shared those concerns.

While I was running, I met an old woman at a public housing complex for urban native communities.

She was selling frybread – and had a little Folgers coffee can where everyone was putting in $5. After we spoke, she took $5 out, put it in my hand, and wrapped her finger around it.

She told me: “My girl, we’re so proud of you.”

That $5 meant more to me than a giant check from someone I knew could afford it.

I’m running for Senate to give back to the communities that have given me so much. I want to be the voice for Minnesota families in Washington. And folks know it.

This is a grassroots campaign, powered by normal Minnesota families chipping in $5 or $10 at a time.

Since our launch, our average contribution has been just $25. Some people give more, some people give less. But I am honored and humbled by every donation.

Please, split a donation to my campaign for the U.S. Senate with Sherrod Brown.

Chi miigwech (big thank you)!

fwd: And then there's Trump

Pamela,

BREAKING: It’s not just Oil and Gas making a pretty penny off the war in Iran.

A new report has Donald Trump making roughly $5,000,000 off his own personal investments in Oil and Gas companies -- the same companies who just made massive profits.

So here’s the quick timeline again: Trump starts a war in Iran, Oil and Gas companies make massive profits off of the Iran war, and Trump makes roughly $5,000,000 off his investments in those same Oil and Gas companies.

Trump has made his position clear: “I don’t think about Americans’ financial situation.” Seems like he’s too busy thinking about his own financial situation.

Big Oil is making billions, Trump is personally profiting, and working families are the ones left picking up the tab. Enough is enough. ADD YOUR NAME: Pamela, join us in demanding accountability today.

Pamela,

Q2 profits are in. And they're massive.

Together, the Oil and Gas industry made $85.2 billion in profits last quarter by charging you more thanks to Trump’s reckless war.

That's billions flowing into the pockets of already wealthy executives and billionaire shareholders while families across America are still struggling with higher costs.

And they knew this was coming.

Oil and Gas companies helped bankroll Trump's return to the White House. They've donated to Trump’s 250th slush fund. And now, as Americans feel the squeeze on their energy bills, they’re seeing the profits roll in.

But our economy should work for us, for our families. It's time to put an end to Big Oil profiting from wars. Sign on if you agree, Pamela.

SIGN ON

We deserve leaders who will stand up to the special interest groups that are raising our costs, poisoning our communities, and causing the climate crisis, and put the needs of working families first.

Ready to join us in holding them accountable?

One min. for Sherrod

Today, we’re asking for just 1 minute of your time.

That’s 60 seconds of your day to contribute to Sherrod Brown’s U.S. Senate campaign to help us flip this seat in Ohio.

DONATE

Here’s why it matters: Elon Musk recently announced that he’s planning to get involved in our race and work to defeat Sherrod. His spending will be on top of the $133 million that National Republicans have already committed to this race.

We’re fighting back by building one of the largest statewide grassroots campaigns Ohio has ever seen. We’re reaching out to folks in all 88 counties, and with the polls showing us trailing by 3, we need resources.

So, can you take 1 minute to rush a donation to Sherrod’s campaign and help him fight back against those trying to buy this seat in Ohio?

If you've saved payment information with ActBlue Express, your donation will go through immediately:

Thank you for your support.

Team Sherrod

Note: This email only reflects donations made online with this email address. If you've made a previous contribution via check or with a different email address/phone number, you may not see it here – but know that Sherrod and our entire team are deeply grateful for your support.

When you love your country, you fight for the people who make it work.

Hey there! It's Sherrod Brown.

There's nobody fighting for Ohioans in the U.S. Senate right now, and I won't sit on the sidelines while working people get screwed over by large corporations and wealthy political donors.

If you work hard, you should be able to afford a decent life. But the reality is, life is too expensive. Costs are going up. Wages are staying stagnant. Working people are working harder than ever before, and they're not getting their share of the profit.

This campaign is all about changing that – and election analysts say we have a strong shot at winning in November.

But I'll need your help to pull it off: My opponent is a Washington insider being propped up by the Republican establishment, and he's got virtually unlimited resources.

That's not how our campaign works. We're a grassroots movement, and that means we rely on ordinary people chipping in a couple bucks. If you're able, please make a donation of any amount today. It could be what helps us flip Ohio and the Senate.

If you'd like to receive exclusive updates from my team, you can text "OHIO" to 64054.

Thank you.

It’s Congressman Emanuel Cleaver from Missouri’s 5th District. Heartland Patriots asked me to reach out because what I'm about to tell you will help determine if Democrats can flip the House blue.

After illegal and race-based partisan gerrymandering here in Missouri, National Republicans have now added my race to their Top Target list. And, they have already launched attack ads distorting my record – with many, many more expected.

It’s simple. Democrats cannot win back the U.S. House without fighting back against these election-rigging redistricting efforts and protecting blue seats like this one.

That’s why these next 24 hours are going to be critical. All eyes are going to be on our next move after this announcement. We need to raise another $46,000 to prove we can compete.

Will you please split a donation of $25 between Heartland Patriots and my campaign to fight back and protect this blue seat?

If you have stored your payment information with ActBlue Express, your donation to Congressman Emanuel Cleaver, II and Heartland Patriots will process instantly:

Extreme Missouri Republicans forced through a gerrymandered map and betrayed the will of the voters time and time again.

Now, I’m running in one of the most competitive races across our country against a radical Republican who will be a rubber stamp for the President’s out of touch agenda.

Extremist Republicans and their billionaire buddies are lining up to spend millions to flip this seat – including a dark money, billionaire-aligned, ultra-conservative Super PAC, Club for Growth.

Control of Congress will come down to defending blue seats like ours.

We have a clear path to victory and we know what it takes to win, but we need the resources to compete with their MAGA millions and get our message out.

Will you please split $25 or whatever you can afford today between my campaign and Heartland Patriots? In November, let’s prove to radical Republicans that their political gerrymandering and election rigging won’t work.

Together, we will take back the U.S. House majority and get back to lowering costs, providing affordable housing, and delivering real results for American families.

Thank you for standing with me,

Congressman Emanuel Cleaver, II

a tough message>>

Hey, team – so sorry. This is a tough message to send. We are about to squander our key opportunity to pass Elizabeth Warren’s No Kings Act. This bill would END Donald Trump's immunity and BAN him from holding office any longer! But if more Democrats don't step up in the next 10 hours, we could lose our shot – and almost no one is donating to our campaign before our deadline. We’re 458 donations short with only 10 hours to go. Please, will you rush just $5 to help RUIN Trump's immunity and support our campaign to pass the No Kings Act? →

DONATE $5 NOW >>

Team, here’s what the No Kings Act would do:

ONE: It would finally hold Trump accountable for his 34 felony convictions.

TWO: It would strip him of the phony immunity his far-right Supreme Court handed him.

THREE: It would It would prevent Trump from holding office ANY LONGER.

So we're launching a massive fundraising campaign to get PUBLIC support for passing the No Kings Act and ruining Trump. But we're still 458 donations short of our goal! Can you chip in just $5 to close this gap, help ruin Trump’s immunity, and pass the No Kings Act? ↙↙↙

Because of the Citizens United ruling, Elon Musk was able to spend almost $300 MILLION to buy our democracy.

And now, we're facing the dire consequences.

We know we send a lot of emails. And you might be wondering why: We aren’t a SuperPAC. We’re not funded by corporate PACs. We spend EVERY DIME so efficiently by running proven effective ads to win the most competitive races, stand up against billionaires, push to pass SWEEPING Campaign Finance Reform, and build our movement.

Friend, when we pass the Constitutional Amendment to overturn Citizens United and save our democracy, you'll be able to say you helped make that happen.

We believe that emails are a crucial way for our campaign to stay in touch with supporters like you. If you'd prefer to receive fewer emails, click here. However, if you'd prefer to unsubscribe, click here. If you'd like to donate, please click here.
