I trust you

The answer is simple.

Friends -

I was in New York City yesterday, but it wasn't to attend a fancy closed-door fundraiser on Wall Street. I'll be in California next week, but I won't be hosting one there either.

Instead, this campaign is funded entirely by grassroots individual donations.

A lot of people think that's a crazy idea. People say, "Bernie, how can you win without a super PAC? How do you expect to raise what it takes to defeat Trump and the billionaire class without high-dollar fundraisers?"

The answer is simple: I trust you.

I trust people in this country are willing to fight for a government that represents all of us, and not just the 1 percent. I trust that people are ready to take on the drug companies, the fossil fuel industry, and the greed of corporate America.

So instead of hosting a fundraiser on Wall Street, we are going to hold one all weekend — online — ahead of our critical FEC fundraising deadline that ends in just a few days. Help us start strong:

Can I count on you to add a $2.70 contribution to our campaign before Monday's critical FEC fundraising deadline comes to an end? I would not ask if it were not so important to our fight.

We have some big goals to reach before Monday — ones that will help us win this primary, defeat Donald Trump, and transform our country. And I can't do any of it alone. So thank you. Thank you for chipping in to power our campaign forward.

In solidarity,

Bernie Sanders
