Friends --

I’ll cut right to it. Joe Biden’s LAST end-of-quarter fundraising deadline is tonight!!

The Biden-Harris team needs $161,739 in Utah before midnight to hit their goal and power their campaign to victory. Can I count on you to chip in before it’s too late?

The contrast in this election is stark.

Consider Donald Trump.

• His abject failure to lead is hurting all of us, including people who believe everything he says.
• He lies about almost everything. I had to write “almost” because even a broken clock is right twice a day.
• He’s willfully, and woefully, incompetent.
• He’s corrupting long standing democratic institutions for his own benefit at OUR expense.
• He’s tried to use OUR military against American citizens exercising their constitutional right to peacefully protest.
• He takes no responsibility for the more than 200,000 Americans -- two hundred thousand! -- who died after contracting COVID-19.
• He’d rather create the ILLUSION of a thriving economy than DO what is actually needed to help the millions of people who are unemployed right now.
• He’s trying to get the U.S. Supreme Court to take away OUR protections prohibiting insurers from denying us coverage due to pre-existing conditions like asthma, cancer, and diabetes.
• He uses his world-wide reach and his awesome presidential powers not to inspire but to DIVIDE us.
• He’s smashing the democracy he took an oath to protect, and he’s hurting millions of people.
• And he’s openly gleeful about naming a Supreme Court Justice who could undo every bit of progress we’ve made over the last six and a half decades!

Wouldn’t you rather have a president who wants to lift us up? Will you join me in making sure Joe Biden’s campaign meets its crucial end of September deadline?

Consider Joe Biden.

• During his eight years as Vice President, we’ve seen Joe roll up his sleeves, get to work, and solve problems.
• He’s authentic and empathetic not just on the campaign trail but throughout his life.
• He showed great wisdom in choosing Kamala Harris to be his partner in solving problems for the American people.
• And last night, on the debate stage, he showed us what a REAL president looks like.
• Everyone who knows Joe Biden knows they can count on him to do the good, the kind, the morally right, the uplifting thing.

And that’s why I’m asking you to join me in making sure Joe Biden’s campaign meets its crucial end-of-quarter deadline. Even if you can only give a few dollars, your contribution matters!

I remember how devastated I felt on November 9, 2016. But I also know how amazing it will feel to watch Joe Biden and Kamala Harris be inaugurated on January 20, 2021.

But there’s still a lot we have to do to make that feeling a reality. Today, we have to make sure Joe’s team hits the $161,739 goal they’ve set in Utah before midnight to ensure this campaign has the resources it needs to compete against Destructive Donald in this final stretch.

That’s why I’m asking you one last time: can you make your first donation before you close this email? A contribution of any amount -- $25 or whatever makes sense for you right now -- will make a real difference.

As a country, we deserve a decent, honorable, intelligent, and compassionate leader.

As the person reading this email, YOU deserve a president who cares.
With your help, WE will have that president in Joe Biden.

I know these are difficult times. Do what you can, and don’t lose hope.
We will get through this.
