President Obama's announcement:

President Barack Obama announced the Democratic Unity Fund over a year ago.

Pat, over one year ago, President Barack Obama formally announced the launch of the Democratic Unity Fund: President Obama wasn't alone -- soon, nearly every presidential primary candidate, along with over 226,226 grassroots supporters, endorsed the Democratic Unity Fund. Now, Democrats are coming together to lift our party's presumptive nominee, Vice President Joe Biden, and down-ballot Democrats to victory in November. This is the moment the Democratic Unity Fund was made for, Pat -- and we cannot slow down one bit. While the Democratic Unity Fund is already improving the data and technology that power thousands of Democratic campaigns across the country, there's still so much to do right now -- while it's still early enough to have a major impact on Election Day. Here's what we have on file to you: Donate $7 to the Democratic Unity Fund to help elect Joe Biden and Democrats down the ticket this November. DONATE: $7 DONATE: $10 DONATE: $25 DONATE: $50 DONATE: $100 Donate another amount Pat, what we're able to accomplish in the coming months is going to have an incredible impact on our party's success in November. And though our world has changed drastically in the last few months, it remains true that there's more that unites our party than sets us apart. By powering the tools that campaigns use to contact voters and train organizers, the Democratic Unity Fund is critical to bringing our party together to elect VP Joe Biden and Democrats nationwide. We don't have a Democratic Unity Fund gift on file for you just yet. If you can, I hope you'll donate to support the important work we're doing to elect VP Joe Biden to the White House, take back the Senate, hold our House majority, and elect Democrats down the ticket. We're putting in the elbow grease to scale up key programs right now -- so your support today would mean so much. Make a $7 donation to support the Democratic Unity Fund and build the strong DNC Democrats nationwide are counting on to win.
