Hi John! I’m Paolo, Will’s partner.

Will has been on-the-go a lot these past few days because he has an important end–of-month fundraising deadline coming up. So I thought I’d give his team a break by sending a quick fundraising email to help out.

Will tells me he’s roughly $12,500 short of his goal. If you’re able to chip in, a donation of just $3 would go a long way in helping us get there!

When Will told me he was going to run for Congress again, I wasn’t sure what to think. Campaigns are expensive, time-consuming, and his opponents dragging his name through the mud isn’t something I love to see.

But after seeing Ken Calvert repeatedly attack the LGBTQ+ community -- at a time when we’re facing intensifying threats -- I knew Will couldn’t sit this out. The way I see it, he has a duty to win this seat, and I couldn't be prouder of how he’s responded.

I’ve always believed in Will, and yes, politics can get nasty. But after seeing the outpouring of support behind his campaign, I’m even more confident he can do this. And the fact is, winning means we all need to rally during the big moments -- like this deadline we’re facing this week.

Do me a huge favor and chip in $3 or more to help us meet our August goal. Take it from someone who's with Will every single day: your support matters and will go a long way in flipping CA-41. It will also mean I can come home to a partner who's a little less stressed. :)

P.S. Watching Will and this grassroots team run this campaign is truly awe-inspiring. Thank you for everything, John.
