The New York Times just broke the news that, tonight, the Working Families Party of New York State voted to encourage Elizabeth Warren to run for president.1
This is a huge deal for Run Warren Run campaign we've worked so hard to build. But there's much more work to do in the days and weeks ahead to build even more progressive support—and to persuade Senator Warren that she should enter the race.
Can you chip in $3 to help with our campaign to convince Elizabeth Warren to run for president?
The New York Working Families Party is an important force for progressive change, and one that's racked up major wins. They played a pivotal role in building the progressive wave in New York City that helped put mayor Bill de Blasio into office; they've helped elect progressive candidates to local, state, and federal office; and they've won on the issues that matter to working families—like raising the minimum wage, paid sick days, taxing the wealthy to better fund our schools, reforming drug laws, winning green jobs legislation, and more. These are exactly the kinds of issues that Elizabeth Warren champions.
The Working Families Party represents on-the-ground power to win elections—folks who make phone calls, knock on doors, and get involved in campaigns to win them. It's exactly the kind of grassroots support a presidential primary campaigns needs, and it's just the latest sign of the huge support from the progressive grassroots calling on Senator Warren to enter the race.
A volunteer army is building. The call is growing. Now, we need your help to grow our efforts to show that Warren should enter the race.

If you combine the boots-on-the-ground power of New York's Working Families Party with MoveOn and our 8 million members—plus our partner Democracy for America—it's clear that, every day, more and more progressives are clamoring to roll up their sleeves and get to work.
But we still need to do much more. We need your help to lay the groundwork for more partnerships like this one, to invest in polling and public opinion research, and to amp up our on-the-ground efforts in key primary and caucus states. Together, let's show Sen. Warren, the media, and potential donors that Sen. Warren's message resonates far and wide—and that if she runs, she can win.
Are you in?
Thanks for all you do.
