Jason, if you’ve been looking for the most strategic donation you can make during the 2026 midterm elections, this is it. Here’s why your $7 goes furthest when you donate to the DNC: We are the only committee focused on electing Democrats at every single level of government. That includes candidates for your local school board, Democrats running in New Jersey, and beyond. It’s our job to send money to candidates who would benefit from that funding the most. And there’s more: Across the country, we’re working hard to reach Democrats who don't vote in every election — our voters — people who will help us win if they show up at the polls in November. Think about the friends or relatives you have who are Democrats but who don't always vote. There are millions of people like them across the country, and traditionally, getting them to show up in a midterm year is even tougher. If we can persuade them to vote in November’s elections, we can win the midterms. If you've stored your info with ActBlue, we'll process your contribution instantly: If we reach our fundraising goal, we’ll have the resources we’ll need to scale up all of this work. Coming up short could mean making tough budget decisions about where to allocate our resources, and Democratic candidates could pay the price. That’s why your support makes such a big difference. Thank you in advance for your help, The Democrats If you gave recently via check or mail, our system may not have yet processed your gift. We are appreciative and thank you greatly for your support. Jason, we’re building the largest midterm operation in DNC history to take back control of Congress this November, but we need your help right now. Your donation today will help fund our work to register new Democrats in battleground states, organize everywhere, and win everywhere. Text JOIN to 43367 Want to receive fewer emails? Click here.

Jason, If you’re on other email lists, you probably receive panicked emails from PACs and politicians trying to scare you into donating. That’s especially true right now, with the mid-month deadline just around the corner and November’s midterm elections rapidly approaching. Maybe you’re already seeing your inbox flooded with requests for donations. But here’s what we believe, Jason:
So here’s the truth: The DNC is the only organization working around the clock, every single year, to distribute funds and resources to all 50 state parties and the races that need it most. We have a team of experts on staff who spend their days strategizing to help Democrats fight back, organize, and win elections. We set our fundraising goals thoughtfully and intentionally to ensure that we have the resources we need to continue that work, all over the country. If you've stored your info with ActBlue, we'll process your contribution instantly.

I feel more like squaring up
This administration is much more prepared and planned this time around, in terms of the kinds of chaos that they're trying to unleash.
More than legal programs, more than policy, they are trying to invoke fear.
That is how authoritarianism works. These are the tools to get us to sacrifice and surrender our civil liberties, more than they take them.
Trump pardoned virtually all the January 6th insurrectionists, including specifically people who were arrested with threats against my life.
I'm not going to give them my fear. I feel more like squaring up than anything else.
When I was running in 2018, people would say, “Why should we vote for a waitress instead of this 20-year incumbent?” — understandably, right? I didn't have experience. They did. And I often talked about the story of The Wizard of Oz.
This was my mom's favorite movie. I know it's in the zeitgeist now because Wicked is out, but genuinely: all of these big, scary things, it reminds me of the end of The Wizard of Oz, where you yank back the curtain — and it's a little guy.
It's a small, scared, incompetent little man.
I think we need to remain focused. Yes, they are capable of immense amounts of damage.
It can be scary. It's not something we ignore. It's not something we check out from.
But we register it. We say, “OK.” Then we figure out what our options are and we do the best we can, day by day.
They're relying on us giving up. Hell no.
We’re going to keep standing with trans people.
We’re going to keep standing with the LGBT community.
We’re going to keep standing for the working class.
We’re going to keep fighting for a better minimum wage.
We’re going to keep fighting to guarantee healthcare.
Help us continue the fight with a grassroots contribution today.
In solidarity,
Alexandria

Jason, FIRST: Fundraising slowed WAY down last month — and we got close to lowering our May fundraising goal for a second time. THEN: A generous donor stepped up to match every dollar given to emails like this one until we hit our $500,000 match goal, and Democrats across the country stepped up to help us HIT our May fundraising goal. We couldn’t be more grateful. NOW: The generous donor who pledged to match grassroots donations to the DNC just extended their offer. That means you still have time to have your $7 donation, and your impact, doubled. November probably seems like a long way off. But Jason, the DNC is working around the clock to register new Democratic voters in key states, organize everywhere, and make sure state parties and campaigns have the resources they need to fight and win this November.

Hey Jason, we wanted to make sure you saw this. We’re less than 150 days away from Election Day, and we need 25,000 Democrats to activate their DNC membership this month. After we reached out on Sunday, 72 more Democrats from New Jersey became Official DNC Members, but we noticed you weren’t one of them. Becoming an Official DNC Member is one of the most impactful ways to get involved and make a difference as we gear up for the most important midterm elections of our lives. Can we count on you to chip in $7 to activate your 2026 DNC Member Card today and help us build the strongest grassroots movement possible ahead of the midterms? Thank you for joining the fight, The Democrats ---------- Forwarded message --------- Hey Jason, did you see this? We’re just shy of reaching 25,000 Democrats to sign up — and it’s still not too late to claim your 2026 DNC Member Card! Thank you for meeting the moment, The Democrats ---------- Forwarded message --------- Jason, We’re less than 150 days away from Election Day, and we need 25,000 Democrats to activate their DNC membership this month.

Our team at the DNC has been working tirelessly to scale up our organizing efforts and build the strongest grassroots movement possible as we get through the primary season and prepare to fight tooth and nail with Republicans for the congressional majority. Jason, this is the last month of Q2 — it’s the calm before the storm. We’ve got five months to reach voters, register new Democratic voters, and break the GOP’s fragile majority, but we can’t do it alone.
