Emily, FIRST: We promised our Senate candidates in key battleground states, state parties, and our organizing teams on the ground that we’d do everything we could to make sure that they all have the resources they need to win this November. THEN: Fundraising slowed down. A lot. We wish we had better news, but fundraising has been slow across the board this month. NOW: We’re on track to fall short of our $300,000 mid-month fundraising goal, and we’re asking you to chip in $7 today to help us keep our promise. If you’ve been looking for an easy way to make a real impact on the midterm elections, this is it. The DNC is the only organization focused on electing Democrats up and down the ballot, across the country, every year. As we speak, the DNC is hiring organizers nationwide who will register tens of thousands of new Democrats in battleground states. We’re investing in state parties, we’re fighting to protect voting rights in court, and we’re building the largest midterm operation in DNC history.

What we promised
What’s on my mind this Mother’s Day
|
||
Emily — One day, when I was teaching writing at a community college, a student of mine came to class with her four-year-old. The moment I locked eyes with my student, I could see her distress, and I knew exactly what happened: Her babysitter had fallen through but she couldn’t afford to miss the class. She set up her son with a box of crayons and some paper in the corner of the room, and I tried to give her a smile when I saw her looking at him nervously — praying he’d make it through. That’s just what moms do. If the carefully-planned matrix of work, and school, and drop-offs and pick-ups falls apart, you just figure it out. This year, more and more moms are having to figure it out. They’re making difficult decisions about their finances, the safety of their families, and their futures — because the chaos of the Trump administration is making life harder for everyone. There’s something that fills me with hope, though: All of you. People like you are turning out in record numbers to elect leaders who will help us make real progress. In Virginia, Governor Abigail Spanberger is fighting to make life easier for mothers through programs like paid family and medical leave. In New Jersey, Governor Mikie Sherrill declared a State of Emergency on utility costs, and her administration is already working to lower costs for working families. It’s in the spirit of motherhood to fight for a better world, to want to leave our children with more than we had, to lift them up. As a mom, there’s nothing more heartening than watching you all fight for a better world, and knowing that we are all in that fight together. So this Mother’s Day, I’m writing to say thank you for continuing to fight — on behalf of myself and so many other mothers. I appreciate all that you do,
Jill Biden P.S. If you’re looking for a quick, high-impact way to contribute to the fight for a better future, chipping in to the DNC today is a great place to start. They’ll put your donation to work immediately to elect Democrats up and down the ballot, across the country — this November and beyond.

Why today?

Emily, In just a second, we’re going to ask you to chip in $7 to the DNC. We know what you might be thinking: Why should I donate today? The truth is that the resources we raise right now — while primaries are still underway and races are heating up — will determine the number of voters we’ll be able to reach before Election Day. And here’s the thing, Emily: Trump and his Republican allies are already scaling up their efforts to reach those same voters. Trump and his MAGA allies have a total of $843.6 million on hand. That’s money they’ll spend on attack ads, registering more Republican voters, and persuading those who may still be undecided. If we don’t have the resources to go toe-to-toe with them, we won’t win back Congress. If you've stored your info with ActBlue, we'll process your contribution instantly.

Emily, As we approach Election Day, it’s more and more important that we have the support of this grassroots team behind us. Why? Because we’re organizing across the country, registering new Democrats in key battleground states, and investing in state parties to ensure that we’re able to not only flip the House and the Senate, but win down-ballot races in every corner of the country.

Emily, you need to see this: BREAKING: Recent 2026 Senate Midterm Polling These races are already neck-and-neck, and Democrats need to win all of them if we want to take back the Senate this year and put a major check on Trump’s destructive agenda. The DNC is already hard at work organizing across the country and registering new Democrats in key battleground states to ensure that Democrats at all levels have the resources to fight and win in November.

We have momentum

Hi Emily — I’m Paulina, the DNC’s Deputy Chief Mobilization Officer. I wanted to update you on my team’s work since the 2024 election — work that grassroots supporters like you helped fund. I oversee our content and creative team, whose biggest function is to run our social media accounts. They work long hours, staying up late into the night when big news breaks, to make sure that Democratic messaging reaches as many people as possible, no matter the platform. And it’s working. We’re growing rapidly on platforms like TikTok — where we’ve gone from having around 1 million followers in November of 2024 to 5.4 million followers today. We also received 738 million impressions last month — that’s 738 million times someone watched a TikTok, an Instagram reel, or read a tweet from The Democrats. What’s even more exciting is that 74.8% of our TikTok impressions came from people under the age of 35. At the DNC, we hear a lot of feedback that Democrats need to do more to reach young people. Emily, this is how we do that. And we’re not just posting about the chaos of the Trump administration — we’re using our platforms to share the work that Democrats are doing every day to make people’s lives better. Winning the midterm elections is going to take Democrats giving it their all in every arena we have — on the ground, knocking doors, raising money, making calls, and, yes, posting on social media.

Outraged, not surprised.
Emily — We have to be clear-eyed about what is going on in our country right now.
Virginia’s Supreme Court decision is the latest in a series motivated by politics and designed to give an upper hand to Donald Trump’s Republican Party, which faces the threat of losing the upcoming midterm elections.
If you've stored your info with ActBlue, we'll process your contribution instantly.
After the U.S. Supreme Court gutted the Voting Rights Act, Republicans across the South are rushing to redraw districts before voting for the midterms begin and disenfranchising Black and brown voters in the process.
Now, they are overturning the will of the people after Virginians made their voices heard on the matter.
Emily, I am outraged, but I am not surprised.
This is part of an agenda that conservatives set in place decades ago to steal power from everyday people and then cling to that power for generations.
It is not too late for us, but we have to be strategic about what comes next.
We have to do everything in our power to make sure Democrats win overwhelmingly this November.
That means investing in candidates and causes now to make sure Democrats across the country have the resources to fight back.
The mission before us is to restore the power of the people. That is only possible with your support, so thank you for being a part of this team.
Together,
Kamala Harris
