DNC emails for funds to retire Clinton’s campaign debt

The Democratic National Campaign Committee emailed supporters Monday seeking funds to help Secretary of State Hillary Clinton retire her presidential campaign debt.

In the email, DNC Executive Director Jen O’Malley Dillon wrote: “When Hillary agreed to join President Obama’s administration, she made the decision to continue her lifelong commitment to serving our country. But with that commitment came the reality that she could no longer be personally involved in paying down the debt from her historic campaign.”

The email also directed supporters to this website dedicated to retiring Clinton’s campaign debt.

I wanted to pass along an exciting opportunity to stand up for an important leader in our party, Hillary Clinton.

When she ran for President, Hillary Clinton showed America just what kind of party we are — one that believes in breaking new ground, with opportunities for everyone to reach our highest office. She blazed a trail for women across the country and represented the values and ideals of all Democrats.

Now she needs our help. When Hillary agreed to join President Obama’s administration, she made the decision to continue her lifelong commitment to serving our country. But with that commitment came the reality that she could no longer be personally involved in paying down the debt from her historic campaign.

If you stand up for Hillary Clinton now — as she’s done for this party — you could win one of three exciting opportunities, including spending a day with former President Bill Clinton.

Make a donation of $5 or more now to win one of these once-in-a-lifetime opportunities.

As someone who’s been around political campaigns and candidates for quite some time, I can tell you that running for president isn’t easy. It involves sacrifice, resilience, and an undying commitment to something larger than yourself.

And when President Obama and Hillary Clinton came together after a competitive primary and teamed up to take America in a new direction, they showed millions of Americans that Democrats will always unite to better our country.

Now, as she carries out the immense task of building alliances, confronting global threats, and securing America’s position of leadership in the world, let’s stand up and show our appreciation for her leadership and commitment to our party:
