I’d love to do this but I am already a monthly donor directly to the Biden campaign. I financially support your work, donate monthly to the ACLU, Planned Parenthood and several local Democratic candidates. I do what I can, and I wish you luck in your fundraising.
Jay, I hope it is okay to post an opportunity for reader engagement here in the comments. If not, please feel free to delete it.
Attention all postcard writers! I received an email from Blue Wave Postcard Movement about a new high priority campaign in Wisconsin:
"We’re putting our Ohio campaign on hold for a hot minute to get cards to Wisconsin ASAP. The Presidential election, US Senate majority, and US House majority all hang in the balance this year, and Wisconsin will play an important role. We are urging unregistered Wisconsinites to register now so they can vote in the August 13 primary and the general election in November.
An initiative on the primary ballot would limit the Democratic governor’s ability to distribute federal funds allocated to the state. This could include disaster relief funds, Social Security, and Medicaid. A lot is at stake!"
I work for a company in a highly regulated industry and I can on only donate so much during an election for a single candidate. And I am maxed out. It drives me insane when I see how the rich are donating and my hands are tied. This is a rule that needs to be changed. It is like they on purpose are curtailing the freedom of a huge part of the population to freely participate in the election.
I would love to but on a fixed income and the Board of my condo association just give us an assortment for $679. ( due July 1st) All of my disposable income is gone that also means emergence food but maybe after August I will be able to please forgive me
I'm so sorry, I seem to have responded to your comment but meant to respond to a different one. Of course I did not mean to say anything so horrible sounding to your perfectly kind remark to Jay. And we all struggle with finances so no need for you to need forgiveness. But I do hope you will not hold this unfortunate mistake against me. I'm so sorry!
Sometimes Substack loads comments as I am reading them, causes the page to move and I lise where I was reading. It's annoying. That's the only explanation I can come up with. Thank you for being gracious.

Thank you for your generosity to great causes, Tami!

Citizens United needs to be changed to Oligarchs United!!! That is CRAZT!!
Hi Jay, the link goes to what appears to be a generic Biden campaign donation site. Will that count toward your goal?
Yes, it will! Thanks for checking!
After you donate, you get an email that shows you donated through the LGBTQ+ team.
That was going to be my question too!
Thanks for asking! I was going to ask that too, but figured someone probably already had so I checked the comments first. 😊
Done! Mostly out of relief that this was the source of your anxiety. 😳 Thank you for leading the charge on this!
Donation made, hoping we reach our common goal of saving Democracy, best wishes that you get a seat at the table!
Well, I'd like to, but the Shetland Islands isn't a US state so far(we can reconsider after the election)
Similar situation here for France. 🇫🇷
Helping Jay help Biden/Harris?!? Done & done 🙌

It is on purpose.
No it's not on purpose I knew about it the last week in May ( my ss check comes on the second Wednesday of the month) Plus I do pay my bills on time

you're welcome
I thought I was responding to Gabriela, just a minute ahead of you.
Hello, I already donate monthly for the Victory Fund, but for your table I will add on. Thanks for all you do.
Me too
I hope so, because I just donated!
Done ✅ baby, done! What a gutsy thing to do (pledge). Glad to help on top of being a monthly donor to Joe Biden ❤️🤗
Donated.
