please, {NAME}, I need you to read every word

[Governor Walz here, I need your help. Will you chip in to help elect more Democratic governors?]( Hey {NAME}, it’s Tim Walz – Governor of Minnesota and Chair of the Democratic Governors Association. I know you’re busy – I am too – but this is important, so I need you to read every word. Vice President Harris is boldly taking up our party’s mantle and I’m proud to endorse her. Earlier this year, I went with her to a Planned Parenthood right here in St. Paul where she became the first Vice President to ever visit an abortion provider. We’ve been in this fight together from the beginning and I’m ready to do everything I can to ensure she becomes the next President of the United States. When she called me after announcing she was running for president, she said let’s go on to win this thing and, {NAME}, I know we can with the backing of supporters like you. But Trump and his MAGA followers are already attacking her and our blue firewall of governors. In this critical moment, we need to stand together and ensure our Democrats across the country have the resources they need to compete and win. [That’s why I’m asking personally today, {NAME}: Will you rush $3 – or even $6 – to help us defeat Republicans and elect Dem govs this November and beyond? All donations will be matched up to our $25,000 goal – but only until midnight!](f_/SUh6S1VibEFSdlBiY0hpZC9VbzE1Mk5PMCtyVU1NL2dWSUlubkJmdFlTZlNmWXJIRllmNlhPMFdmS0JlYjI5T1dCcTBYeEl1ZEw5dzM2dm9wK1QyWk10N09IamF6dWtJcEFpU1RYazdxNDg9S0/MklNbi9yY1NKQVFtYnc4ZjBJbjdwK0RBNVRzK1lLcnkrVmVDT3hEd01qYTY0aW5oQkMyWDc1ZElLdTlnM0RXWEdqZ1hVRlE4UWQ2a2dLU1U3dmxDcXl4ZUVMK2tUQ1ArbzhoUld0eGt0ZmZsQnNDOHpiS3hkVUlMaTFrYzhVQVpPb095Q0Jaa1h6YkcvL1Z6dU9xT3locVcyMm9KUVZGNzdSZjJNMFEzL3ROdEVkRk5RdFlWMWpGeFJzN2dOWVUvTHRWRDNqQndCNk9BbnVNbGR0MmExQSs0eXVra3Evc1lLaWROdFRjNkppWG9wTHpxaHFOeWljRi9kZStGVHVmME1RM1piZXFHOTVsWk1mNmVtN2dCdEFSSmtucUltWVpJUUUvZGFBUmp1K3pOV1VST1JERjhsNDVIazRpZzFVYUQ5eDlnWFBVNkxUdFMvcXFIRC84Z2lJa3R3a214STFhTHMzcG5SS0p4dDZ0Nk4xSUpDVlBIamc9PQS2) [Donate $3 (becomes $6!)]( These past weeks have shown that the stakes in November are dire. Last week, Republicans gathered in Milwaukee to cement their extremist presidential ticket and further plot their destructive plans. {NAME}, these guys are weird: They’re calling proud Americans “childless cat ladies,” trying to gut our public schools, and telling our kids what books they can and can’t read. But the fight ahead and the work we have to do to win will not be easy. Donald Trump and the RNC have at least $229.7 million on hand and the GOP is already pouring money into key races across the country like the toss-up governors’ race in North Carolina. That’s where you come in, {NAME}. As chair of the DGA, I know firsthand that in tough races, grassroots supporters like you are our most powerful allies. We can’t compete and win in critical governors’ elections this November and beyond without your help. [So, {NAME}: can you rush $3 before our urgent deadline to help us make sure we have all the resources we need to defeat Republicans and elect Dem govs this November and beyond?
