I just got this email from our Research Director who told me that four of the most extreme right-wing shadow groups just launched a new multi-million dollar barrage of attack ads against 39 Democrats in close races.

We have a strategic advertising response in place and we have mobilized our rapid response efforts earlier than ever before in preparation for attacks just like these. But, this new tidal wave of attacks is going to require urgent additional resources.

Help us urgently raise $500,000 in the next 48 hours to counter this corporate special interest onslaught. Every grassroots dollar you give is put to work immediately for rapid response, grassroots mobilization efforts and getting our message out.

Contribute $5, $10 or more to our Emergency Ad Fund in the next 48 Hours to help Democrats under attack by right-wing shadow groups.

Let me be clear — we will retain the majority in the House if we have you standing with us and fighting back against every vile GOP attack and dirty trick. We know the truth when Democrats have the resources to get their message out and turn out voters — Democrats win. It’s as simple as that.

Thank you for standing with us.

Jon Vogel
DCCC Executive Director
