I can’t do this work without you — the grassroots supporters who have had my back every step of the way. Will you chip in $5 to help continue the fight?

$3. It may not seem like a lot compared to GOP corporate mega-donors, but when we put all of our grassroots donations together, $3 can amount to a really powerful movement. $3 donations beat a Republican who raised $10 million against AOC. $3 donations brought 6,000 hours of free, virtual tutoring to under-resourced families. $3 donations let us push for the largest climate investment in history. Now, with the strength of our movement being tested every day, your $3 donation is more import

One thing that distinguishes me (and several others in the Democratic Party) from most of my colleagues is that I rely virtually entirely on grassroots donations and support, the vast majority being small-dollar, to fund my campaign. The average donation to my campaign floats around $16-19. I reject all corporate money and have been very vocal about the need to get dark money influence out of the party and politics in general. The influence money has is absolutely atrocious. I don’t take mee

When you stand with working people, corporate interests will line up against you. In recent years, more than $13 million has been spent trying to defeat us — and we know that kind of money will come at us again. My opponent this November is funded by MAGA donors. But hear me when I say this: if we stand together, our progressive movement will win. If I can count on your support, can you chip in $5 to my re-election campaign? No matter what, thank you for being here.

One thing that distinguishes me (and several others in the Democratic Party) from most of my colleagues is that I rely virtually entirely on grassroots donations and support, the vast majority being small-dollar, to fund my campaign. I reject all corporate money and have been very vocal about the need to get dark money influence out of politics in general. This allows me to legislate freely and operate independently from our corrupting system of campaign finance and revolving door politics.

My name is Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez. When I first ran for office, some people who fashion themselves "political strategists" or "experts" said, "You shouldn't do your full last name. Having two last names is weird." They even said, "What are people gonna call you?" 😂 I said no. If I can't run as myself, then I don't want to run at all. If I can't be myself and stick to my values, then what is the point of any of it? And you know what, I won my race. People figured out how to say my name, an

Figures cover domestic political ads paid in dollars, from 4 May 2026. Spend is the sum of Meta’s range midpoints; impressions above one million are reported as “1M+”, so impression figures are floors. Each ad counts in the week its delivery started, with its lifetime spend at our last pull; ads still running before the vote are counted as of 31 October 2026.
