Democratic Primaries

'Today, Vice President Joe Biden has cleared the path to be our party’s nominee for president.

I want to congratulate Vice President Biden and his team on their victory, and I also want to congratulate Senator Sanders and his team on a well-fought campaign. Senator Sanders and his campaign have strengthened the Democratic Party with their energy, ideas, and leadership, and we need them to continue helping lead the fight to transform this country.

Now it is time to come together and unite around our presumptive nominee. It’s time to finish the fight and send Joe Biden to the White House and elect Democrats in every corner of this country. Today marks the first day in what will be nothing short of the fight of our lifetimes, Ellen, so I need you to do something very important.

Make a $7 contribution to the Democratic Unity Fund to help elect presumptive nominee Joe Biden and Democrats in all 50 states. The general election begins right now, so your support has never been more vital than it is today.'
