Dear Supporter, Two facts: 1) The Supreme Court just opened the floodgates even wider for major donors. 2) The Republicans have way more uber-wealthy donors than Democrats. We’ve got two choices: A) Give up. B) Work harder. Dunno about you, but I’m going with option B. Look, I’m not going to pretend that our mission—to build a grassroots army of donors to win elections and bring about progressive change in this country—didn’t get harder. It did, but it also got even more critical. If we’re going to win in November, it’ll be because ActBlue helped thousands of campaigns raise enough money through small-dollar donations to counter the flood of new cash coming in thanks to the Supreme Court ruling. We’re relying on you to chip in $3 a month right now, so ActBlue can turn your small donations into outsized victories.

Fat chance of that. Just look at whats happened since the Citizens United ruling: the Koch brothers and their friends have donated hundreds of millions of dollars to buy elections. The negative influence of these elite donors is only going to grow unless we act now. We’re less than 8 months out from Election Day. We need to invest in our technology and community right now if we’re going to have the resources to beat the Republicans in the fall. Can you chip in $3 a month right now?
