John,
My team reached out to you yesterday about this Thursday’s upcoming
end-of-month fundraising deadline. [ [link removed] ]Before I ask if you can help us
reach our grassroots goal, I hope you’ll let me explain just how much your
contribution matters at a time like this.
When I first ran to represent Pennsylvania’s 12th Congressional District,
it was no secret I was an underdog candidate. But as a lifelong resident
of the district, a state legislator, and a committed community organizer,
activist and advocate for social justice, I knew our communities deserved
better representation in Washington, and I was committed to deliver.
We faced an uphill battle in 2022. Despite an onslaught of outside
spending from super PACs, we won one of the most expensive and fiercely
contested Democratic primaries in the country, going up against a moderate
candidate endorsed by the former long-time representative of this seat.
After overcoming some ugly attacks in the primary race, we faced even more
in the general, with right-wing groups like AIPAC spending millions of
dollars to stop our people-powered campaign in its tracks.
But together, we organized and built a multigenerational, multiracial
movement without donations from corporate PACs to elect the first Black
woman to represent Pennsylvania in Congress and achieve a momentous win
for progressives. We did that, together, and showed that Western PA is
fighting for the future of our whole country.
Since our 2022 victory, I’ve fought tooth and nail to bring real,
progressive change to Western PA and fight fascism in Congress. As a
result, our enemies are already preparing for 2024 in an attempt to make
me a one-term representative and push us backward.
Without a doubt, this re-election race is going to be another uphill
battle. But I know that with people-power behind us, we can and will
defeat the odds once again.
[ [link removed] ]It starts now: will you help our grassroots campaign start building the
resources we need to win next year by pitching in $5 before
this Thursday’s deadline?
[ [link removed] ]Chip in $5 »
The 2022 victory wasn’t just a win for me, but for every single member of
our community and the progressive movement as a whole. Let’s keep moving
forward and fighting for the future our entire country deserves.
— Summer
