I spent the weekend on the campaign trail in Texas and Georgia, where we rallied with voters and spoke truths about the challenges we face as a nation.
In Houston, I announced my plan to raise teacher salaries across this country with the largest federal investment in teachers in American history.
No teacher should have to work two or three jobs just to make ends meet. I'm pledging to you that by the end of my first term as president, we will close the teacher pay gap in America.
I'm counting on you to join me in this fight right now. In just a few days, we'll close the books on the first quarterly FEC fundraising deadline of our campaign. The numbers we report will demonstrate the strength of our movement -- and with a primary this competitive, we can't afford to fall short.
We've set our most ambitious goal yet for this deadline: $750,000 raised from grassroots contributions. Can you make your first contribution to make sure we reach this goal?

Our plan to give our teachers an overdue raise is just the beginning. We are not running a campaign against this president: we are running a campaign for the future of our country. Together, we're putting forth a bold vision for a new America that we can build together.
We're fighting for an America that will invest in the middle class -- not the top 1% or corporations. We are fighting for an America where teachers are paid their worth, and where health care is a human right -- not a privilege reserved for those who can afford it.
Each of us has a choice to make. Years from now, our children and our grandchildren will ask us what we did at this inflection point in our country's history.
We will be able to tell them about more than how we felt. We will tell them what we did -- what action we took. Our work starts now.
Our campaign isn't taking a dime from corporate PACs or federal lobbyists -- just people. Will you pitch in a contribution before this week's FEC deadline to make sure we hit our grassroots fundraising goal?

For The People,
— Kamala Harris
