Jason — I know it's late, but this can't wait. I just got out of an emergency meeting with the DNC budget team. As of 9:55 PM this evening, we're pacing to come up seven percent short of our $500,000 end-of-quarter fundraising goal. So I need to ask: Can you chip in $7? We're leaving no stone unturned when it comes to the midterms, but competing with Trump and his billionaire donors takes a lot of resources. The GOP came into 2026 with a $483 million war chest — so we need to hit our fundraising goals if we want to win up and down the ballot. We need all hands on deck now to win in November, so I'm personally asking: Will you rush $7 to the DNC today? If you've stored your info with ActBlue, we'll process your contribution instantly. Thank you for your support. Ken

  | Jason, We wanted to make sure you saw this time-sensitive update from the DNC's executive director ahead of our end-of-quarter FEC fundraising deadline. Here are the toplines: Democrats need to net FOUR Senate seats and THREE House seats to take back Congress this November, but the resources required to secure these wins are hefty. That means we cannot fall short of our $500K end-of-quarter fundraising goal tonight. So, Jason, if you can pitch in today, here is a personalized link: https://secure.actblue.com/donate/em-dnc-march-2026-shepp1111.milanonline@blogger.com Rush $7 or any amount that's meaningful to you to help us have a strong showing on our FEC report. DONATE $7 NOW Thank you, Team DNC ---------- Forwarded message ---------

Subject: An update for Jason from the Executive Director of the DNC Jason, As the DNC's executive director, it's my job to guide our party's long-term strategy. So, as we look ahead to the midterms, here's a quick update for you: Democrats need to flip four Republican seats to take control of the Senate this November. That means winning races in states like Texas, North Carolina, Ohio, and Alaska. To take back the House, we need to hold the seats we have and flip at least three more. This operation is going to take a massive amount of resources. Trust me, our team is crunching the numbers every day. But we also know how to win tough races. That's why at the DNC, we're making unprecedented investments in voter registration and state parties. And we're working to reach voters who may have sat out previous elections. We're doing everything we can to make sure we take back Congress — but to make sure we're on track to win, we have to meet our end-of-quarter fundraising goal. Unfortunately, we're not quite there yet. So, Jason, I'm personally asking: Can you rush a $7 donation to the DNC today to help us meet our critical $500,000 goal before March 31? Your contribution will help ensure that Democrats in key races have the resources they need to win this November. If you've stored your info with ActBlue, we'll process your contribution instantly. Thank you for your support, Roger Roger Lau

We can't do this without your support. Thank you.
BREAKING: we just filed more than 10,000 petition signatures in support of Alexandria's re-election campaign 🔥 This is the most number of signatures our campaign has ever collected to get Alexandria onto the election ballot. This is what a people-powered movement looks like. 
Hundreds of our neighbors in The Bronx and Queens took to the streets over the past weeks and collected the largest number of signatures our campaign has ever received to get Alexandria on the ballot. We can't do any of this work without you. Thank you for standing with us. Whether you can donate today or not, thank you for standing with us in this movement for a better world. Pa'lante, Team AOC

| Jason, two generous DNC donors have agreed to MATCH all donations to this email up to $15,000, meaning that your $7 will turn into $14 that will be put to work immediately to elect Democrats up and down the ballot this November. But this rare match opportunity expires at midnight tonight. MATCH MY $7 After tonight's end-of-quarter deadline passes, we'll be required to report how much we've raised in Q1, and everyone will be looking to see our totals. Trump and his billionaire allies will be watching closely to see how much, or how little, grassroots momentum Democrats have heading into the midterms. So, Jason, please don't let this opportunity go to waste. Chip in $7 right now to have your donation go TWICE as far in helping us hit our end-of-quarter goal so we can hold Trump accountable, and take back Congress → If you've stored your info with ActBlue, we'll process your contribution instantly.

It wasn't AI generated.
Can we be real with you for a moment? We understand that a constant stream of emails asking for a contribution can sometimes get on your nerves. That's okay. This email wasn't generated by AI. It was written by a real person. We understand how people can get frustrated. But let us explain why this is vital. When we ask for your support, we don't expect every person to give. But we ask because we know that when you can support the cause, you will. That's how this transformative movement works: by a whole lot of people doing their part to make something great. The only way we can get there is through the support of small-dollar donors chipping in whatever they can. If you can, will you make a $3 contribution — or $5, or anything you can — right now? It'll go a long way. Contribute $5 We're not exaggerating. Most members of Congress fuel their reelection campaigns by dedicating hours of their time asking rich donors for $500, $1000, or even $3500 donations. Alexandria is different. This whole movement is fueled by online contributions like the ones we're asking for in this email. With these contributions, we've built a campaign that is… - Raising resources, recruiting volunteers, and making calls to help elect progressive allies across Congress, and build a progressive majority.
- Reaching out to communities across NY-14 and the country to fight for working people and support progressive candidates.
- Raising money for community relief organizations, closing critical resources gaps that the federal government has left unfilled.
- Working day and night to reelect AOC, defeat our Democratic primary challengers and our Republican opponents, and show the world what we can do.
If this movement is the model of what you want in our politics, please donate today to help us reach our end-of-quarter fundraising goal. Thanks for reading, Team AOC Contribute $5
