The next few weeks will be the Kerry campaign's last opportunity to
accept and spend individual donations. After he accepts the nomination
at the Democratic Convention on July 29th, he is legally obligated to
begin the Presidential Public Funding period, and will have
approximately $75 million to spend to run his campaign between August
and November. After July 29th, his campaign will no longer be allowed to
accept or spend individual contributions from the public.
Because the Republican Convention begins nearly a full month after the
Democratic Convention, George Bush and the Republicans will have an
extra month to raise and spend money attacking Kerry. While Kerry will
be at a distinct disadvantage in August, contributing today -- and
inviting others to join us -- will help minimize the effect.
That's why the Kerry campaign needs your help today. If you can, please
consider giving $25, $50, $100 or more today at:

Alice Rivlin: That's a big risk in my opinion -- one that the Administration and the Congress are not taking seriously enough.
