Carly: our campaign has gained incredible traction

Robert,

Just wanted to take a moment to thank you for joining our team.

The career politicians have a big head start. But with your help, we are quickly building the resources and momentum necessary to get on the main debate stage at the Reagan Library in September.
Since the first debate, just one week ago, our campaign has gained incredible traction. It’s truly because of the support of Americans like you that we’ve been able to do so much in such a short period of time. Just look at some of the polling that has come out in the last week:
  • We’ve skyrocketed to 4th place nationwide--tied with Scott Walker, and just 1 point behind Jeb Bush and Marco Rubio.
  • Two more polls put us in 4th place in Iowa.
  • 2nd place in Nevada.
  • 5th place in New Hampshire.
  • 2nd place in Michigan.
We don’t say it enough, but from the bottom of my heart, thank you again for your support. And thank you again for standing with my campaign.
All my best,

Carly

note from Hillary

        Black Independent Party -- My co-founder Ross Morales Rocketto and I launched  Run for Something  in January 2017 to take back the thousands of seats that Republicans have collected over the last few decades -- and to give young women, people of color, LGBT people, veterans, people with disabilities, and anyone who has been underrepresented in politics the support they needed to launch their very own campaign. Here’s what I’ve been proudly telling people since then: What we’ve done in less than two years would not have been possible without the support of Hillary Clinton and Onward Together. Their checks have kept us afloat as we expanded from two people sitting on our couches with our dogs to a team of more than 12 staffers and a program that’s recruited more than 28,000 could-be candidates. And the mentorship from the Onward Together team has steered us through more than a few tricky situations. Here’s my hard ask: Can you make a donati...

The Alliance: Counter to Obama's Foreign Policy

Image
Dear Friend, The last few days have been incredibly successful for the Alliance for a Strong America. Americans all across the nation are standing with us as we fight back against President Obama's failed policies and the crumbling Obama Doctrine. Recently,  The Washington Post's  Jennifer Rubin published a profile of Vice President Cheney, Liz, and the mission of the Alliance and we thought you'd enjoy giving it a read: Dick and Liz Cheney Act To Counter Obama's Failed Foreign Policy Article Appeared in  The Washington Post , June 18, 2014 By Jennifer Rubin Former vice president Dick Cheney and his daughter Liz have seen quite enough of the Obama administration's foreign policy debacles. Rather than simply take to the airwaves, they have decided to do something about it and about the political environment concerning national security. The Cheneys' press release announces: "the formation and launch of The Alliance for a Strong America, a 501(c)4...

Annette: Why i came to America

Image
Dear Robert, I know that your inbox is filling up quickly with fundraising emails. That’s why I wanted to go ahead and let you know now that this is not one of those emails. I’m not going to ask you to chip in to my campaign now before any “critical deadline,” nor am I going to ask you to help me unlock a triple match. Instead I want to share a personal story. It's a little long, but I think it's very important to let you know what I think truly matters right now. I came to the United States when I was 17 years old, after my father was kidnapped by the FARC, the Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia. Although my father was American, and had served in World War II and the Korean War as a U.S. Air Force Pilot, Colombia was the only home I had ever known, and Spanish the only language I was used to speaking. It didn’t take long for me to realize that the English I had studied in school was not enough to make me fluent, as such, I struggled to get into college. But I wa...

we can’t balance the budget on the backs of hungry kids and veterans.

Image
Robert, This holiday season, we can’t balance the budget on the backs of hungry kids and veterans. But that’s exactly what my opponent, Congressman Tom Cotton, and his reckless colleagues are out to do. The only farm bill they’ll pass cuts $40 billion from food assistance, forcing groups like children, active-duty service members and even veterans who’ve bravely served this nation to go hungry. As one Arkansas official at a food pantry put it, this “just can’t happen.” The cuts are cruel and senseless. We’ve got to speak out now and stop Rep. Cotton from pushing through these rash, irresponsible cuts that put special interests ahead of children and veterans. A vote on the farm bill is coming, so we don’t have much time. Take a moment and speak out for our neighbors in the spirit of the holidays. Click here to demand Congress protect nutrition funding so our children and veterans don’t go hungry. Rep. Cotton and the House ext...

Jenny: out-hustle "Team Mitch"

Image
Dear Patriot, If we don't help Constitutional conservative Matt Bevin win the Kentucky primary in a few weeks, RINO Mitch McConnell could  cost us the Senate majority . For that very reason, the  Tea Party Patriots Citizens Fund  has made  Matt Bevin's  campaign one of our very top priorities this year. We must raise  $ 100,000  as soon as possible to help push Matt to victory, along with Tea Party candidates across America! Please make your most generous contribution of $15, $25, $50, or whatever you can possibly afford right away to help us get involved on the ground in this critical race. We have only a few weeks left before the Kentucky primary! Mitch McConnell's campaign is an absolute  disaster  right now. It's so bad that a local Kentucky paper recently asked, " Is Mitch McConnell  trying  to lose? " This RINO has attacked his own voting base, claiming that he wants to  " punch "  Tea Party conse...

Rob: we’re tired of waiting

Image
Robert L., That’s how long we’ve been waiting for a real transportation bill. Congress has passed 33 short-term extensions of federal highway and transit funding over the past six years. That’s inexcusable. With federal transportation funding set to run out in a matter of days, the House and Senate are nowhere close to agreement on how to end the gridlock, putting us right back in the same position we were in barely two months ago. Tweet at Senate Majority Leader McConnell and House Speaker Boehner and tell them we’re tired of waiting. We need long-term transportation investments that will create jobs and economic growth now. As long as we’re on the brink of bankrupting the Highway Trust Fund every six months or so, we’re missing out on long-term investments that would create good, family-sustaining jobs, reduce traffic jams that worsen air pollution, and ensure a strong economy for our communities and families. Tweet a message to Senate Majority Leader   McConnell an...

Cory: promise of opportunity.

Image
Robert, In January, 250,000 New Jersey families got a much-needed raise when our state's minimum wage increase kicked in. Why can't we give a raise to workers across the country? Well, this week the Senate is debating a federal minimum wage bill that would raise the minimum wage nationwide to $10.10 an hour. This change would affect millions of people, improving lives, making families stronger, and boosting our economy by increasing demand for goods and services. Yet we're hearing the same wrong-headed excuses from critics who say helping out the lowest wage earners will hurt the economy. To push back against this opposition and build momentum for a nationwide increase, I'm partnering with Senator Mark Udall and Progressives United to show as much support as possible for this crucial legislation. Join me, Mark Udall, Progressives United members, and thousands of fellow supporters today. Sign our joint petition telling Congress to act now to raise the m...

President Clinton is launching a new series focused on economic recovery

Image
  Dear Robert, Since the start of the COVID-19 pandemic, over 40% of Black-owned businesses have closed. Eight times as many women have dropped out of the workforce as men — many of them Black and Latina. These numbers are staggering. Collectively, we all continue to feel the effects of the pandemic — not only as it threatens our health, but also our nation’s economic future. That’s why President Clinton is launching a new series focused on economic recovery. On Tuesday, October 20, at 1p.m. ET, President Clinton and the Mastercard Center for Inclusive Growth will kick off a series of conversations to address the racial and economic disparities in America, focused on building a better future for everyone. The first event,  Small Businesses, Big Opportunities , will feature Mastercard CEO Ajay Banga, as well as other distinguished speakers. A tentative agenda is included below, be sure to register here . 1:00-1:10 p.m. —  Opening remarks by President Bill Clinton 1:10...
