Dear Supporters,
Perhaps the single greatest gift that our democracy affords us is the opportunity to change course when things have gotten off-track.
Eight years ago, many were saying that elections didn't matter and that there was very little difference between our major political parties. However, after eight years of failed policies from George W. Bush and Dick Cheney, showing contempt for our Constitution, and most disturbingly of all, denying the climate crisis that now threatens the very future of human civilization,
I think almost everyone agrees that elections matter a great deal. With the election less than 42 days away and all eyes watching Democrats to see if we will unite and act together to create that change, each of us has a personal responsibility to help advance Democratic campaigns that do justice to the unbelievably high stakes in this election. To encourage you to act immediately, House Democrats are matching
your gifts 2-to-1 before the September 30th FEC reporting deadline – the last date to effectively purchase ads.
We have just $500,000 to go to reach our goal of $6 Million in September - if you were to give $35, $50 or more to our Emergency Ad Fund you could ensure that we can stay up on the air in several key districts before the last chance to effectively purchase ad time September 30th.
Contribute $35, $50, or more today and your gift will be matched TRIPLING your impact before the last chance to buy ads on September 30th. On so many critical issues that will define the century, from solving the climate crisis, and defending our nation, to safeguarding our constitutional liberties, and building a modern, strong economy, over the next 42 days, you and I must seize the chance to boldly move America in a New Direction.
Contribute $35, $50, or more today and your gift will be matched by House Democrats 2-to-1 TRIPLING your impact before the last chance to buy ads on September 30th. The choice in front of us is truly profound. John McCain, Sarah Palin, and their would-be Republican allies in Congress are openly endorsing the very same policies followed for eight years by the Bush-Cheney White House –
and actually promising more of the same. On the other hand, Barack Obama, Joe Biden, and more Democrats in Congress offer a much different choice.
As clear as the choice is to us, the hard truth is that neither electing Obama-Biden nor expanding our Democratic Majority in Congress is a foregone conclusion. With perhaps the most consequential election in all of our lifetimes now just 42 days away, please stand with the DCCC to give America the kind of White House and the kind of Congress that reflects the values, priorities, and the most American of ideas that our best days are still in front of us.
Contribute $35, $50, or more today and your gift will be matched by House Democrats 2-to-1 TRIPLING your impact before the last chance to buy ads on September 30th. All the Best,
Al Gore
P.S. Now is the time Democratic party leaders are making the final, tough decisions of where to invest stretched resources and where to deploy field organizers in our last all-out push to ensure victory in this historic election. Your gift today will go three times as far with a matching gift from House Democrats who are my friends –
please act now.
