A sincere request​:

Taking on Donald Trump and the Republicans will require a coordinated, unified effort.

In a moment, I am going to ask you to split your first $10 donation between my campaign for president and the Democratic Party. I hope you'll give me the chance to explain why your support is so important right now, and why it couldn't come at a more crucial time in this race. I've said before that this campaign has always been about more than whose name is at the top of the ticket. We are in a battle for the soul of our nation. A goal like this cannot be accomplished by the earnest efforts of a few. We need all Democrats -- including you -- to commit to the work our party is doing today, while we still have time to meaningfully influence the outcome of the most consequential election of our lifetimes. Taking on Donald Trump and the Republicans will require a coordinated, unified effort. That is exactly why President Obama and the DNC launched the Democratic Unity Fund just over one year ago. By preparing early, we can have a real shot at a Democratic victory in November. But Democratic candidates running for office nationwide, including me, are counting on your urgent help as we ramp up our efforts to meet the demands of the general election. I know times are tough right now, so I wouldn't be asking if it weren't so important: Will you split a $10 donation between my campaign and the Democratic Unity Fund? Anything you are able to contribute will go a long way in taking back the White House, flipping the Senate, and maintaining our House majority. DONATE: $10 DONATE: $25 DONATE: $50 DONATE: $100 DONATE: $250 Donate another amount There is no underestimating the power of this movement if we band together as one team -- especially with dedicated supporters like you in this fight with us. Democrats running for office nationwide are relying on the DNC for critical campaign resources, like top-notch voter data and its digital organizing capacity. But truth be told, these programs require tremendous resources, and we simply cannot afford to scale back our efforts as we enter the general election. If the last few months have shown us nothing else, it is that the stakes are far too great to take any chances. Please, split your first $10 donation between my campaign and the Democratic Unity Fund to support the critical party infrastructure we need to take on Donald Trump -- and win. Your support does not go unnoticed. From the bottom of my heart, thank you. Take care, Joe Joe Biden If you no longer wish to receive emails from the DNC, submit this form to unsubscribe.
