Jason, The DNC recently filed a lawsuit against the Trump administration under the Freedom of Information Act. We're demanding transparency: If the Trump administration plans to interfere with November's midterm elections, the American people have a right to know. In October, we sent 11 requests for information to the Justice Department, the Department of Homeland Security, and the Defense Department. Congress set a deadline for agencies to respond to information requests, and that deadline passed months ago. We're done waiting. President Trump has consistently attacked the integrity of American elections, in the courts and on the ground. The public has a right to know the administration's plans for November. We all remember President Trump asking Georgia's secretary of state to "find 11,780 votes" after he lost by exactly that margin in 2020. More recently, President Trump told the New York Times that he regretted not ordering the National Guard to seize voting machines in swing states he lost in the 2020 election. He's even threatened to "nationalize" elections. The fact is, if the federal government is planning to deploy armed agents to the polls, we have a right to know. If they're planning on sending troops, we have a right to know. That's why we're suing, Jason: to uncover any plans that the Trump Administration has failed to turn over, so the DNC can prepare for the fight ahead. So if taking the Trump administration to court to force them to comply with the law is important to you, please consider chipping in $7 to the DNC today to help us continue our legal work and holding Trump accountable → If you've stored your info with ActBlue, we'll process your contribution instantly.

"What are people gonna call you?"  
My name is Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez. When I first ran for office, some people who fashion themselves "political strategists" or "experts" said, "You shouldn't do your full last name. Having two last names is weird." They even said, "What are people gonna call you?" 😂 I said no. If I can't run as myself, then I don't want to run at all. If I can't be myself and stick to my values, then what is the point of any of it? And you know what, I won my race. People figured out how to say my name, and they gave me a name. 
I say this because I want you to have the courage to listen to your gut — even when the experts are telling you that what is "smart" is not in alignment with what you think is right in your integrity. With gratitude, Alexandria  
  | Jason - Here's my plan for how we win this election: This is a ground game campaign. This is person-to-person, human-to-human, mukluk telegraph. For those in the Lower 48, mukluk telegraph is a saying we have in the Bush that basically amounts to gossip. It's passing along a message through our conversations with one another, which is the only way information can really spread in some parts of the Last Frontier! In a state as vast and rural as ours, there really is no other way to reach every Alaskan. That's why it's so important for us to travel to their communities and have those person-to-person conversations. There are 585,000 square miles in this state — bigger than Texas, California, and Montana combined. And we're going to criss-cross it in its entirety. But to be honest with you, reaching every community will be expensive. More than 80% of our communities can only be reached by plane, boat or snow machine. And when we are able to drive, gas up here costs much more than it does in most of the Lower 48! But we don't have another option. I'm running for U.S. Senate to fight for all Alaskans, and I'm committed to bringing every borough into this fight with me. That's why I'm asking for your support today. We need to take our message across Alaska, and we can't do it without your help. So if you're with me, please split a donation today between the DNC and my campaign for U.S. Senate in Alaska. No matter how much you're able to contribute, every donation counts because it all adds up when we chip in together. If you've stored your info with ActBlue, we'll process your split contribution between Mary Peltola and the Democratic National Committee instantly: I'm so grateful for your support. Together, we're going to win this! Thanks so much, Mary  If you gave recently via check or mail, our system may not have yet processed your gift.

After much thought and deliberation
| Jason, MAGA entered 2026 with a massive campaign war chest. They know their agenda is unpopular, so they're going to try to BUY a victory in the midterms. That's why they're desperately raking in money from their GOP megadonors. Just last month, Trump held a dinner for his wealthy donors and billionaire allies that cost $1M per person to attend. Meanwhile, the average online donation to the DNC is just $21.48. It might seem far-fetched to compete with billionaires by bringing in around $20 at a time, but it's not. If everyone receiving this email chipped in, we would be well on our way to ensuring that Democrats have the resources to take back the House and Senate and win down-ballot races across the country this November. So, that's exactly what we're asking you to do today. Jason, can you chip in $20 to the DNC to help us fight back against Trump and his billionaire backers? Every single contribution counts when you're building a grassroots movement up against a billionaire-backed machine → If you've stored your info with ActBlue, we'll process your contribution instantly: Thank you for your support, The Democrats  If you gave recently via check or mail, our system may not have yet processed your gift.

| Jason, Is there anything we can say to convince you to chip in $7 to the DNC today? What if we told you that Trump and his allied groups started the year with a $483 million war chest — more than double Democrats' total? What if we told you that Democrats have overperformed in or won 254 out of 284 key elections since Donald Trump took office? What if we told you that we can only take back Congress this November if we're able to effectively organize and mobilize our resources over the next few months? And what if we told you that the DNC's When We Count program is already working to register more than 250,000 new Democratic voters in swing states throughout the Sunbelt and South? We have momentum. Thousands of Democrats have chipped in to help us reach the voters we'll need to prevent more of Trump's cruelty from harming our communities. Jason, making a donation today could help us expand our voter registration program to every state where Democrats need to win in November. But, to have the biggest impact, we need to act now. Please, can you rush a donation of $7 today? If you've stored your info with ActBlue, we'll process your contribution instantly.

I know it's been a little while but I'm hoping you'll read this message anyways
Hey, you may not have heard from me before. I'm Oliver, Alexandria's campaign manager. Alexandria is up for re-election this year, and we recently kicked off her 2026 re-election campaign! Our organizers and volunteers are about to start hitting the streets across NY-14 to gather signatures to get Alexandria on the ballot. We run this campaign differently than most. We organize year-round and host several community events such as our back-to-school backpack giveaways and Thanksgiving turkey distributions. As we gear up for re-election, the donations we receive today directly impact our budget and ability to hire for the coming months. I'm so proud to be a part of this movement with you. Our supporters who chip in $5, $20 bucks at a time make this campaign possible. If you can, will you chip in $5 or any amount that is meaningful to you to make sure our campaign has the resources we need to ensure victory in November? In recent years, Alexandria's opponents have raised and spent over $13,000,000 against us, so we need to be ready for anything in these coming months. Contribute $5 Thank you, Oliver Hidalgo-Wohlleben
