That's why I'm imploring everyone to donate whatever you can, right now, to Jess King in PA-16 (https://secure.actblue.com/donate/jesskingtechsolidarity?refcode=techsolidarity …) , Marge Doyle in CA-08 (https://secure.actblue.com/donate/ts-for-marge …), Jessica Holcombe in CA-01 (https://www.crowdpac.com/campaigns/245830/jessica-holcombe …), or another progressive candidate in a rural district.

Replying to @vermicelli
you’re going to show up in FEC reports no matter how you give. I don’t think candidates re-sell your emails to anyone

for the three campaigns I listed, you can ask for your email not to be shared, and they would honor that request
