John --

Thanks to the generous support from friends like you, we hit our fundraising goal on Sunday night!

Our grassroots support was stronger this June than any month this year, and it exactly what we needed to continue to build a foundation for our campaign.

But as we enter July, we have some urgent issues we need to address.

Obstructionists in Congress allowed student loan rates to double yesterday, and now students face an increase on their federal student loan interest rates -- from 3.4% to 6.8%.

This is simply inexcusable. Many of us rolled up our sleeves and fought for college affordability, but House leadership refused to address this urgent problem and now millions of students are left wondering if they'll be able to get their degree.

If you haven't already signed our petition, will you add your name right now to lower student loan rates?

Already signed? Forward this email to three friends who you think might be affected by the rate hike and ask them to add their names too!

Grassroots supporters like you have to make their voices heard. Without you, this campaign could never be successful.

Kindest Personal Regards,

Cheri
