Democrat Hillary Rodham Clinton is jumping into the 2018 midterm elections with both feet and promising to lead the “Resist†movement by spreading money around to protest candidates.
In a new memo to Resist supporters and those of her “Onward Together†campaign, which foreshadows a third bid for the presidency, Clinton to expand her efforts.
Her group has spent $1 million so far, and is raising money to help more candidates eager to resist President Trump and the GOP.
Clinton’s latest pitch is a $5 “Resist†bumper sticker. She emailed:
One of the most incredible things to come out of the 2016 election has been how many members of this big-hearted team have turned frustration into action.
You’re leading local campaigns and organizing protests. You’re showing up at town halls, rallies, and phone banks. You’re using your voices to support candidates who are breaking barriers and to speak out against policies that do harm instead of good.
I’d like to send you an Onward Together sticker to thank you for your commitment -- just make a donation of $5 or more today, and Onward Together will get your sticker in the mail.
Because of your dedication and generosity, we’ve been able to provide 12 groups with mentorship, resources, and more than $1 million in financial support -- and that’s only in our first year. As the midterms draw closer, we’ll be backing even more hard-working, groundbreaking organizations and candidates.
If you’re with us, then donate to support this work and let us send you a sticker to say thank you.
Onward!
Hillary
