A big grassroots milestone

I believe in our power as agents for change in the fight for fair maps.

Diane -- When I think about the way change has happened throughout this country's history, one thing is clear: There's nothing stronger than the power of millions of voices calling for change. That's why I believe that All On The Line can be decisive in the fight for fair maps.

Right now, we are close to a big grassroots milestone. Since we launched All On The Line earlier this year, 45,538 donations have helped to fuel the fight for fair maps. Can you help us reach 50,000 donations before the end of the month?

Twelve years ago, I stood on the steps of the Old State Capitol in Springfield, Illinois, and reminded folks that the genius of our nation's founders lies in designing a system of government that can be changed. And one of the most fundamental changes is written right into the Constitution: redistricting.

Every ten years, we have the chance to make sure our government actually reflects the people it represents. And with some politicians doing whatever they can to manipulate the redistricting process for political gain, it's up to us to lead the charge for an end to partisan gerrymandering.

Our grassroots movement has never backed down from a fight, whether it was achieving and defending quality affordable healthcare, working to pass Wall Street reform, or rallying to advance the causes of gun violence prevention, environmental protection, or criminal justice reform. We haven't won every fight -- yet -- but we're undeterred. And it didn't help that our progress was sometimes stalled by politicians from gerrymandered districts who blocked needed change.

That's why investing in the fight for fair maps couldn't be more important. The lines drawn during the 2021 redistricting cycle will help determine the next decade of progress at the state and national levels. That's not just good for policy; it'll help improve our politics.

I've always believed that we're stronger when we stand together -- and the fact that we're within reach of 50,000 grassroots donations is a testament to this movement's strength.

But All On The Line has a long road ahead. We know gerrymandering is standing in the way of making progress on the issues we care about. We've identified the problem -- and we have the plan and the grassroots organizing power to address it. But we need your help.

I hope I can count on you to be part of the movement that ends gerrymandering and puts power back where it belongs -- in the hands of the American people.

DONATE


As always, thank you for all that you do,
Barack Obama

Obama's note Fwd: my announcement

Before tonight's critical end-of-month deadline, take a moment to read President Obama's note.

DemocratsJoin us.

Since you are one of our strongest supporters, I wanted to be sure that you saw the email that President Obama sent you before tonight's critical deadline.

Take a moment to read President Obama's note below, and then please make your first $3 donation to the DNC's Democratic Unity Fund before our midnight deadline.

Subject: My announcement

In many ways, this year's Democratic presidential primary is similar to our 2008 election.

Our primary was competitive, expensive, and no one knew which candidate would win. But there was always one thing we knew for certain: Whoever won the nomination was going to need a strong Democratic Party to win back the White House -- and that could not be any truer right now.

That's why in May, I teamed up with the DNC to launch a bold new effort: The Democratic Unity Fund. The idea behind the fund is that no matter who becomes our party's standard bearer, she or he, plus our entire slate of Democrats up and down the ticket, will have a powerful, united, and well-prepared DNC ready to lift them to victory.

Since then, 37,243 Democrats have answered our call. This initial response has been strong, but I'll be honest: Creating and maintaining a strong Democratic Party is a never-ending job, and it's going to take consistent support from dedicated Democrats like you if we want to win in 2020.

So, I'm asking you once again: Will you donate $3 to the Democratic Unity Fund today to help ensure that our eventual nominee -- and candidates up and down the ballot -- have the party resources to win in 2020?

Every dollar given to the Democratic Unity Fund goes directly toward funding the programs that Democrats will need to win in 2020. This includes hiring and training field organizers in battleground states across the country, investing in technology and cybersecurity measures, and updating our party's voter file to ensure that every candidate -- whether they're running for local office or the Oval Office -- has the data they need to reach voters.

I know November 3, 2020 feels far away now, but it's not. Whether or not the DNC is able to fund these programs will directly affect our chances of winning in 2020. The time to act is now.

That's why I hope I can count on you to donate $3 to the Democratic Unity Fund today. Any amount you can afford to give will directly support our party's eventual nominee for president and help ensure that our Democratic values are once again represented in the White House and across our country.

Thanks for supporting our party.

Barack Obama

18 hours to go | $35,000 to raise

We released our strategy memo this week -- and an ambitious goal to fund our work on the ground.
All On The Line
 ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌  ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌   ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌  ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌   ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌  ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ 
Diane,

We made a bold decision to release our strategy memo this week. If you read our campaign director's email, you know the three key pillars to the success of this movement: training and educating, grassroots organizing, and local advocacy.

But like President Obama said, there's no one-size-fits-all solution to map manipulation -- because the fight for fair maps will be won at the state level. That's why we've built custom plans for each of our ten target states.

Our team set an end-of-month goal of $100,000 to fund our work on the ground. We are currently $35,280 away from hitting that goal -- and we have until midnight to close the funding gap. Can we count on your support?

If you've saved your payment information with ActBlue Express, your donation will go through immediately.

Express Donate: $15
Express Donate: $35
Express Donate: $50
Express Donate: $100
Express Donate: $250
Or donate another amount


As we finalize our state plans, we're evaluating whether we can execute these ambitious plans in full or need to modify plans because of budget constraints. Every grassroots donation we get helps us put our strategy memo into action. In fact, we've already trained hundreds of volunteers across the country and activated folks in states like Texas and North Carolina where the fight for fair maps has already begun -- thanks to the support of our grassroots donors.

Your donation of $15 could mean the difference between hitting our goal tonight or falling short. Will you be one of the people from Virginia to step up and help fund this important work?

President Obama said the single most important thing we can do at the grassroots level is to make sure the rules of the road are fair -- and our strategy memo outlines our plan to make that happen. We truly believe this grassroots movement can end gerrymandering, but we need the financial support to turn our plans into action.

Thanks for your support,
-- The All On The Line Team

I need you to see this:

Unfortunately, we're still a bit short of this month's goal for the Democratic Unity Fund.

DemocratsJoin us.

I need you to see this: Our critical October deadline is just a day away, and the clock is ticking fast.

Countdown to our October deadline

Unfortunately, we're still a bit short of this month's goal for the Democratic Unity Fund. Missing our target for this fund would be a big deal. That's because our eventual nominee for president and Democrats down the ticket will rely heavily on the vital party infrastructure this fund helps build.

Democratic Unity Fund

Simply put, Democrats nationwide can't win without it. The Democratic Unity Fund, launched in May with the help of President Obama, is a promise that whoever becomes our party's nominee will inherit a strong, well-resourced, and well-prepared DNC that's ready to hit the ground running in the general election. In fact, President Obama emailed you just last week to reiterate the importance of the fund.

Barack Obama

If our records are correct, you have yet to make a gift to the Democratic Unity Fund. I know you care deeply about this election, so I hope you'll join the more than 46,000 Democrats on this team who've pitched in to support our eventual nominee and candidates in every ZIP code.

Tomorrow at midnight, our party will close the books on October fundraising. What we've raised by then will dictate whether we can continue to fully fund critical 2020 programs or whether we have to make some tough cuts to our budget and general election plan. We can't afford to miss this goal, which is why I have to ask:

Can you donate your first $3 to the Democratic Unity Fund before tomorrow's deadline? Any amount you can afford to give will go directly towards the crucial party infrastructure building it will take to beat Donald Trump and Republicans nationwide.

Thank you for everything,

Tom

Tom Perez
Chair
Democratic National Committee

P.S. I can't think of a more crucial time to make an investment in the Democratic Unity Fund. Donate $3 to the fund before tomorrow at midnight if you're all in for our eventual Democratic nominee for president and Democrats in all 50 states.

Tough truth

We fell short of our State Plan Sponsor goal. This is our last chance to close the gap.
All On The Line

Diane,

Last month, President Obama wrote to you to say "All On The Line has proven that its campaign works." He was talking about our unprecedented campaign to demand openness and transparency during North Carolina's court-ordered redistricting process -- work that was only possible because of the support of our grassroots funders.

We set a goal of recruiting 1,000 State Plan Sponsors, to bring our 10 state plans to life. These plans were carefully crafted by our state directors to make the type of work we did in North Carolina possible across the country.

But here's the tough truth: We fell short of our goal. We received 896 contributions since launching our State Plan Sponsor campaign -- and our team has decided to extend our deadline to close the gap.

Will you be one of the contributors we need from Virginia to help us make up the difference and reach our 1,000 State Plan Sponsor goal?

Thanks to support from our donors, the All On The Line team is heading to Texas to close out our Redistricting U program. We've already trained hundreds of volunteers -- a great start to building out our infrastructure in our 10 target states. But Redistricting U is just one piece of the puzzle -- to win fair maps in all of our target states, we need more resources to execute our state plans.

As President Obama said, "progress requires us to be vigilant to keep up the momentum." Vigilance means we don't give up when we miss our goals -- we get up and we try again.

Help us make our state plans a success by becoming a State Plan Sponsor.

DianeA,

When Norah O’Donnell asked me on 60 Minutes about Donald Trump’s ridiculous statements on Russian interference in our elections, I told her the truth.

Norah O'Donnell: But President Trump says Russian interference is a hoax.

Joe Biden: He's an idiot -- in terms of saying that. Everybody knows this. Everybody knows it. Nobody doubts it.

Nobody ever doubts that I mean what I say. The thing is, sometimes I say all that I mean.

So to have the President of the United States ignoring the consensus of every single intelligence agency, all of our allies, and basic common sense about Russian interference? You would have to be an idiot to actually believe that.

The American people aren’t idiots. Which is why our campaign is having its best month yet. Because all of you, like me, just want to beat Donald Trump like a drum.

Can you chip in $5 today to help us close out $575,000 more and hit this record setting goal for the month of October, DianeA?

Look, Donald Trump has shown us all, time after time, that he is not worthy of the office he holds.

He wasn't qualified to hold it in the first place, and he clearly isn’t interested in fulfilling its basic duties.

The White House doesn’t have to be like this. It wasn’t when President Obama and myself were there. And, with your help, I’d like to go back to the White House and clean up the mess this guy has made.

Chip in $5 to make sure we have our best fundraising month yet and I have the momentum I need to win this thing »
