Dear MoveOn member,
We need to be honest with you.
There are 12 weeks until Election Day. That's not a lot of time. And right now, we're behind on our fundraising goals for the year.
We don't say that to guilt you. We say it because you're a valued part of this community.
Here's the thing about MoveOn: we don't take corporate money. We don't take money from billionaires who expect something in return. We run on grassroots donations from people like you. That independence is what lets us do our work without asking anyone's permission first. But it also means when donations slow down, our options shrink.
And this year, they've slowed down. And we’re running out of time to catch up. Will you make a gift today to keep powering our work? (If you have saved your payment information with ActBlue, your donation will go straight through.)
We need to hit our goals because of what's riding on the results of this year’s midterm elections. Our organizers and data scientists spent the past year laser-focused on a single question: who actually decides these races?
The answer was shocking. The number of MoveOn members who sat out 2024—people who already know us, already take action with us—is larger than the margin it will take to flip 11 of those seats in 2026. Reaching them isn't a guess. It's math.
Chip in today to help close the gap and keep our election program fully funded. (If you have saved your payment information with ActBlue, your donation will go straight through.)
Our election program is built around what actually moves people: trusted local voices having real conversations, member-to-member relationships. It's the kind of work that's slow, unglamorous, and exactly what wins tight races.
Twelve weeks is enough time to close the gap between where we are and where we need to be. It is not enough time to make up for lost momentum if we let this slide. Every week we spend behind on our goals is a week we're not fully investing in organizing voters in the districts that will decide control of Congress.
We know not everyone can give right now, and that's genuinely okay—forwarding this email or talking to a friend about what's at stake helps too. But if you're able, a gift today does double duty: it helps us catch up, and it helps fund the program that reaches the voters who will decide whether we can curb Trump’s power grabs, endless wars, and his agenda benefiting the corrupt billionaire class.
Yes, I'll help close the gap—donate now. (If you have saved your payment information with ActBlue, your donation will go straight through.)
We've caught up before. We've won before. But we need to see it happening now, not in October when there's no runway left to fix it.
Thanks for all you do.
–Team MoveOn
P.S. Twelve weeks from today, control of Congress—and whether those elected will fight for a country in which working people can thrive—will be decided. Whether we're ready in the districts that matter most depends a lot on whether we close this gap in the next few weeks. Chip in now and help us get back on track. (If you have saved your payment information with ActBlue, your donation will go straight through.)
Want to support MoveOn's work? As millions of us continue to march, protest, and take care of our neighbors, we must also organize to make the 2026 midterms a landslide rejection of Trump and MAGA Republicans. MoveOn is planning the most sophisticated midterm election program in our 28-year history—designed to turn out voters at a scale that overcomes Republican voter suppression. Will you chip in to power a progressive wave in November’s election?
