Original message from Kamala Harris, Nov‌ember 1, 20‌19

This has been a difficult week. We had to make some tough decisions to move forward. Staffing cuts, program changes, you name it.

There is so much on the line here and it became clear that if we want to win, we need to realign our resources and go all-in on Iowa. But I've been going over the numbers with our HQ team and we need a surge in grassroots support to make this work.

So I'm asking, can I count on you to become a founding donor of our All-In For Iowa Fund?

We are less than 100 days out and your contribution means that we can make more voter contacts, ensure that we have all of our organizing bases covered, AND compete against the onslaught of online ads that are drowning out our voice in Iowa.

Right from the start, this campaign has been about more than just me. It's been about giving a voice to the voiceless.

As a supporter, I thank you for getting this. And now I need you to step off the sidelines and become a donor.

Please, make a contribution today to become a founding donor of our All-In For Iowa Fund and make sure that we have the resources we need to win.

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

Our conversations on the ground in Iowa have me more convinced than ever that with a surge of grassroots donations from supporters like you, we can win. An incredible number of voters are still undecided and in the words of one pollster, "Iowa is still up for grabs."

So will you help us claim these votes? Will you stand with me in this fight to bring our values and our experiences to the White House? Please, become a founding donor of the All-In For Iowa Fund today »

Thank you for all that you do,

— Kamala

P.S. I know you've heard the pundits trying to count me out. But I've been counted out in every single race I've ever won. Let's prove them wrong together. Donate »


 
 
 
 
 
 

Here’s the deal

 

It's November 1 and Kamala hasn't qualified for the final debate before 2020.

Here's the deal: very few presidential candidates will make the cut for December's debate. We need to make sure that Kamala is one of them.

We need her voice and vision for the people on the debate stage. But to do it, we need to reach undecided voters right now. Will you pitch in to help?

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

December's debate is the last chance for undecided voters to hear from candidates before 2020. After that, we dive right into the Iowa caucuses and onward.

With a majority of voters still undecided in this race, we need every opportunity to reach as many of them as possible. The debates are one of the most powerful, high-visibility opportunities to achieve that goal with millions of Americans tuning in to hear from the candidates.

To get Kamala to that stage, we need to get a boost in the polls. This will take substantial resources to amplify Kamala on the ground and online -- that's why we're asking for your help today:

Any amount you can pitch in today will bring us closer to getting Kamala on that stage in December and to winning this primary election.

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

We really appreciate your support right now. You've probably heard the pundits and talking heads counting us out.

Together, we can prove them wrong. Thanks for all you do.

— Team Kamala


 
 
 
 
 
 

Some news, and a thank you

Our campaign has been about seeing clearly, speaking honestly and acting decisively in the best interests of America.

Though it is difficult to accept, it is clear to me now that this campaign does not have the means to move forward successfully. My service to the country will not be as a candidate or as the nominee. Acknowledging this now is in the best interests of those in the campaign; it is in the best interests of this party as we seek to unify around a nominee; and it is in the best interests of the country. 

I decided to run for President because I believed that I could help bring a divided country together in common cause to confront the greatest set of challenges we've ever faced. I also knew that the most fundamental of them is fear — the fear that Donald Trump wants us to feel about one another; the very real fear that too many in this country live under; and the fear we sometimes feel when it comes to doing the right thing, especially when it runs counter to what is politically convenient or popular.

I knew, and I still know, that we can reject and overcome these fears and choose to instead be defined by our ambitions and our ability to achieve them. 

I knew that we would have to be unafraid in how we ran the campaign. We'd have to run with nothing to lose. And I knew that our success would depend not on PACs or corporations but upon the grassroots volunteers and supporters from everywhere, especially from those places that had been overlooked or taken for granted.

We should be proud of what we fought for and what we were able to achieve.

Together we were able to help change what is possible when it comes to the policies that we care about and the country we want to serve. We released the first comprehensive plan to confront climate change of any of the presidential candidates; we took the boldest approach to gun safety in American history; we confronted institutional, systemic racism and called out Donald Trump for his white supremacy and the violence that he's encouraged against communities that don't look like, pray like or love like the majority in this country; and we were one of the first to reject all PAC money, corporate contributions, special interest donations and lobbyist help. 

We proposed an economic program that focused on both equality and equity and would give every American the certainty that one job would be enough; and a healthcare plan that would guarantee that every one of us is well enough to live to our full potential.

We knew the only way our country would live up to its promise is if everyone could stand up to be counted. We released the most ambitious voter registration and voting rights plan, one that would bring 55 million new voters into our democracy, and remove barriers for those who've been silenced because of their race, ethnicity or the fact that they live with a disability.

We spoke with pride about El Paso and communities of immigrants. We elevated the plight and the promise of refugees and asylum seekers. And we proposed nothing short of rewriting this country's immigration laws in our own image, to forever free from fear more than 11 million of our fellow Americans who should be able to contribute even more to our shared success.

And at this moment of truth for our country, we laid bare the cost and consequence of Donald Trump: the rise in hate crimes, the terror attack in El Paso, the perversion of the Constitution, the diminished standing of the United States around the world. But we also made clear the common responsibility to confront him, to hold him accountable and ensure that he does not serve another term in office. Committing ourselves to this task not as Democrats or Republicans, but as Americans first before we are anything else. 

I am grateful to each one of you, and to all the people who made up the heart and soul of this campaign. You were among the hundreds of thousands of our fellow Americans who made a donation, signed up to volunteer or spread the word about this campaign and our opportunity to help decide the election of our lifetime.

You have been with me from the beginning, through it all. I know that you did it not for me personally, not for the Democratic Party, but for our country at this defining moment. Though today we are suspending this campaign, let us each continue our commitment to the country in whatever capacity we can. 

Let us continue to fearlessly champion the issues and causes that brought us together. Whether it is ending the epidemic of gun violence or dismantling structural racism or successfully confronting climate change before it is too late, we will continue to organize and mobilize and act in the best interests of America.

We will work to ensure that the Democratic nominee is successful in defeating Donald Trump in 2020. I can tell you firsthand from having the chance to know the candidates, we will be well served by any one of them, and I'm going to be proud to support whoever that nominee is. 

And proud to call them President in January 2021, because they will win.

We must support them in the race against Donald Trump and support them in their administration afterwards, do all that we can to help them heal a wounded country and bring us together in meeting the greatest set of challenges we have ever known.

I'm confident I will see you down the road, and I look forward to that day. 

Thank you for making this campaign possible, and for continuing to believe that we can turn this moment of great peril into a moment of great promise for America and the world. 

With you always, and forever grateful.

Beto

Can you join me in endorsing Bernie for president?

We need to build a mass movement in America, centered on the working class, the poor, and the middle class.

Friends -

Last February I was working as a waitress in downtown Manhattan. I worked shoulder to shoulder with undocumented workers who often worked harder and hardest for the least amount of money.

I didn't have health care. I wasn't being paid a living wage. And I didn't think that I deserved any of those things because that is the script that we tell working people here and all over this country.

It wasn't until I heard of Bernie Sanders that I began to question and assert and recognize my inherent value as a human being that deserves healthcare, housing, education, and a living wage.

Now I am in Congress — and I'm proud to say that the only reason that I had any hope in launching a long shot campaign for Congress is because Bernie Sanders proved that you can run a grassroots campaign and win in an America where we almost thought it was impossible.

Last month, I stood with more than 25,000 people in Queens, New York City, where I endorsed Bernie Sanders for president. And now I am asking you to add your name to say you support Bernie too.

Please add your name to say that you also endorse Bernie Sanders to be our next president, and to build the working class movement that will make that happen.

When I was a baby, my family relied on Planned Parenthood for prenatal care, and back then Bernie Sanders spoke for me.

When I was growing up and education was being gutted for kids in the "wrong" zip code, Bernie Sanders spoke for us.

When I was a waitress and it was time for me to graduate college with student debt, Bernie Sanders was one of the only ones that said no person should be graduating with life-crushing debt at the start of their lives.

Bernie Sanders did not do these things because they were popular — and that's what we need to remember. He did this, and he fought for these aims and these ends when they came at the highest political cost in America. No one wanted to question this system. And in 2016 he fundamentally changed politics in America.

What we need to do in this country is to organize a positive and welcoming mass movement that is centered on the working class, the poor, and the middle class. One that is actively anti-racist and that is rooted in principles of universality of cooperation.

We need a United States that really, truly and authentically is operated, owned and decided by working people in this country.

Our movement is multi-racial, multi-gendered, multi-generational and multi-geographic. We have to come together not by ignoring our differences, but by listening to them, prioritizing them, and understanding injustice.

The movement that we are building together is one that can not only elect Bernie Sanders, but that can truly transform our country to work for everybody. That is why I am asking you today:

Please add your name to mine and say that you support Bernie Sanders as our next president. Together we can build this movement to transform our country.

Thank you for all you do.

In solidarity,

Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez
