Pat, ​I hope you’ll give me a second to explain the role you can play in electing Democrats this year:

Start a monthly donation today to have the strongest possible impact on this race before Election Day.

Last year, I emailed you to provide a look behind the curtain at the DNC's strategic investments ahead of 2020. Now that 2020 is here, I want to give you an update on exactly where we are with those investments and where we need to be. Last cycle, we were focusing on the four main pillars of our party: Overhauling our tech, data, and cybersecurity to modernize campaigns and win Doubling down on our 50-state strategy and building a world-class battleground organizing and voter protection infrastructure -- this means staff to identify voters, get them to the polls, and protect their votes once they're there Holding Trump accountable through the DNC War Room and taking the fight to him in battleground states Running a fair, transparent, and inclusive presidential nominating process that leaves our eventual nominee in the strongest position possible to unify our party and win the general election We've been able to fund this work thanks to Democrats like you, but with folks heading to the polls in Iowa in 21 days, we have to ramp up these efforts. This work simply cannot happen at scale without your consistent support -- and the most impactful form of that support is a monthly sustaining gift to the DNC. By starting your monthly donation today, you'll secure your Official 2020 DNC membership and become a card-carrying member of our party. That's why I'm asking: Can you commit to supporting our party by starting a monthly gift to the DNC? A monthly gift started right now helps us plan ahead and disburse resources in the most efficient way possible, and is even more powerful than the sum of those donations made right before Election Day. DONATE MONTHLY One of the best ways to help elect Democrats this year is by starting a sustaining donation. By giving monthly, you'll give the Democratic Party the ability to plan and strategize about where to best spend your investment -- whether that be hiring a young organizer in a key battleground state or giving a candidate the tech they need to get out the vote in their state before Election Day. Sustaining donations make our long-term planning possible. The more sustaining donors we can recruit early on, the smarter the investments are that we make this election cycle. Start a monthly donation today to help Democrats win nationwide this year. Thanks for being on this team, Pat.
