Friend,

I'm Andy Kim, and I'm running for the United States Senate to root out corruption, restore trust in government, and give New Jerseyans the representation they deserve.

Now I don't take this on lightly – I didn't intend to run for Senate – but I felt compelled to do so because this is bigger than me: We can’t jeopardize the Senate or compromise our integrity.

I'll explain more in a moment, but if you're with me in the fight to rebuild faith in our Democracy, will you please become a founding donor with your donation split between End Citizens United and my campaign toward our critical $500,000 Launch goal?

I've long said that no one in America is above the law. It's the basic foundation of our justice system. 

So when elected officials of any party are charged with abusing public trust, as Sen. Bob Menendez was last week, I take it seriously and hope that our justice system will quickly bring the truth to light.

In the meantime, I don't have confidence that Sen. Menendez can properly serve New Jersey voters in the wake of these allegations. And in view of his defiant refusal to resign, one thing has become crystal clear: New Jersey deserves better.

I'll never take a dime of corporate PAC money. But if we're going to root out corruption, enact meaningful campaign finance and ethics reforms, protect voting rights and restore integrity in politics, I need your help to win.

I'm counting on your grassroots support to help me hit my critical, first fundraising goal of $500,000 before Saturday's deadline.

So friend, if you share my people-powered approach to politics, please chip in with a gift of $5 or anything you can split between our movement and End Citizens United today. Together, we can win this race in New Jersey, the right way. >>

I'm grateful for your grassroots support. We can't do this any other way.

– Andy
