Arnold --
This is the final stretch. There are three weeks left to make our case to voters -- three weeks to hit the phones, three weeks to knock on doors, three weeks to talk to our friends and neighbors about what's at stake in this election.
The President isn't holding back.
He's rolling up his sleeves and getting to work -- just like I am, just like you are. He's preparing to make his closing argument at rallies like the one in Las Vegas on October 22nd.
I've seen this process up close -- and I know there's nothing quite like it. For him, these final days of a campaign are his opportunity to amplify all your hard work -- to help drive home the points you've been making to voters all fall.
I want you to see it for yourself. After all, you're the ones powering this movement day in and day out.
Backstage at the rally in Las Vegas, just before the President goes on stage to deliver that big speech, he's going to take the time to meet with three OFA supporters.
Donate $3 today to be automatically registered for a chance to join the President backstage in Las Vegas. We'll pay for your round-trip airfare and hotel room -- just be sure to enter before the deadline at 11:59 p.m. Eastern Time on Friday.
Meet the President backstage.
I've been on the road myself, doing what I can to help some of the President's best allies in Congress win their elections.
And I've seen what we're up against across the country. Shadowy groups -- mostly funded by corporate special interests and billionaires who want their Republican friends back in power -- are plastering the airwaves with nasty advertising. They're supporting extreme candidates who want to lower the minimum wage, privatize Social Security, and explode deficits for all of us by giving tax breaks to the wealthy.
Thanks to the Citizens United Supreme Court decision, these corporate special interests are allowed to spend hundreds of millions to defeat the members of Congress who stood with the President when he needed them most -- without disclosing where the money comes from.
What this election is about is whether this movement will have the allies in Congress we need to keep moving America forward.
But the last days of any campaign are not up to the President or me -- they're in your hands. If supporters like you do not step up, no one will.
This is the time when each conversation counts. Right now, we're pulling together as many resources as possible to help us fund our voter turnout campaign. It's already the largest any party has run in an election like this -- but it needs to be bigger.
If these groups think they can drown out our voices in these final weeks, we will prove them wrong. We've done it before -- and every day I see encouraging signs that we are doing it again.
I hope you can see it for yourself.
If you make a donation now, you could have the chance to watch the President make the case at a rally in Las Vegas from one of the best seats in the house.
