Hi Friends, I’m Lulu — Nikki’s dog!

My mom has been so busy advocating for families across Central and Southern Illinois that she didn’t even notice me getting on her computer to type this. 🐾

I wanted to reach out because the other day, I overheard her mention something about our fundraising pawgress, and she said our reelection campaign will be in a ruff spot if we don’t reach our fundraising goal by September 30th’s end-of-quarter fundraising deadline. Woof!

To be honest, I don’t really know what that means, but I know it doesn’t sound good — especially with so much at stake for the families (and pets!) across our district.

My mom continues to cut through all the barking in Washington — working across the aisle to pass common-sense legislation that moves Central and Southern Illinois forward — but I’ve heard two Republican opponents have already entered the race to put a stop to her pawgress.

I wish I could help my mom out more, but I’m much better at playing fetch and taking long walks in the park, so I think my mom needs some human support to help her in this fight.

That’s why I’m reaching out today to ask: Friend, will you chip in $5 or whatever you can to help my mom’s reelection campaign continue making pawgress toward their end-of-month goal?

Thank you for supporting my mom — none of this would be pawsible without your support!
