We’re reaching out to ask you to make a contribution ahead of our September 30 FEC deadline. But before we ask, you deserve an explanation. Now that James is running for the U.S. Senate, our campaign has to regularly report our fundraising numbers to the Federal Election Commission. It’s about transparency, so the public can see who is funding these Senate campaigns. That’s great. We’re proud to show the world that this is a true grassroots campaign. We’re funded by the people, not corporate PACs. But the numbers we report are also analyzed by the media and our opponents. They’ll be judging if our movement has what it takes to beat the billionaire mega-donors and their puppet politicians. A weak report means they write us off. We cannot let that happen. We need to send a message loud and clear that the people are behind James. We need to put in the work now to have the resources and grassroots organizing power to win this campaign. Please, if you can, make a contribution today. It’s critical that we have as many donations as possible before the FEC deadline. Each one is a powerful show of force for our movement.
