FUNDRAISING REQUESTS

Dear Susan,
Montana is making headlines. Across the country, people are looking at our state Supreme Court’s decision to stop big corporations from buying elections – and they’re beginning to realize just how wrong Citizens United was. One national editorial agreed with Montana Justices that “Citizens United has given corporations enormous power barely distinguishable from bribery.”
Well, I want Montana to make more headlines on this issue – by rejecting the influence of these powerful special interests in our Senate race. Sure, they’re going to continue to spend big attacking us – they’ve already spent over $1 million since last June. But if we band together, we can beat them and send a powerful message across the country.
Click here to help me make a statement about our grassroots strength. We’re just $20,000 away from our January fundraising goal, and with seven days left, we’re within reach – but we need your contribution now.
Frankly, I don’t need to read it in the paper to know that it’s wrong to let corporate giants and Washington special interests tell us who wins our elections. And you and I both know that if we let them get their way, we’ll be reading headlines about more giveaways to Big Oil and Wall Street, more pain for working families, more tax loopholes for millionaires, and more ugly gridlock in Washington.
So let’s re-write the story. Let’s do what it takes to build a campaign capable of beating these guys. Let’s show the nation what Montana already knows: that if our government’s going to be accountable to the people, our elections have to be decided by the people.
Hitting our January fundraising goal is an important step on the road to victory. Help us raise the last $20,000 by making a contribution of $5 or more right now!
If we keep working hard and hitting our goals, Karl Rove and his special interest pals will open the paper after Election Day and read about how all their “enormous power” and unlimited resources couldn’t beat our grassroots team.
And that’s the kind of headline I want.
Please click here to give now!
Thanks for helping me write this story,

Jon
