Hi John,
Matt here – Callie's husband.
I wanted to give you a behind-the-scenes look at a day in the life of a Congressional Candidate.
The truth is, running for office isn't glamorous. It means a lot of nights on the road (especially in a district as big as ours) crushing energy drinks and jerky sticks, and a lot of time watching Callie on the phone talking to local leaders and potential donors.
Sometimes we have to get dressed and attend events:

Other times we’re like this - passed out in the car getting a nap in before a parade.

But every day, I watch Callie jump into her to-do list with determination – because this fight matters…
It's the same energy that drove her to become a veterans’ advocate when I came home from Iraq and couldn't get the care I needed – and the same energy that propelled her through law school while raising two small girls.
I know that there's no challenge Callie can't overcome when she sets her mind to it – but she can't do it alone.
Callie's working around the clock to unseat Rep. Bergman and secure better representation for Michigan's First District. Can you lend her a hand by chipping in $5, $10, or even $50 to her campaign?

Another campaign secret that I only recently learned: End-of-Quarter filings really do matter.
Before Callie entered this race, I assumed that all donations were equal – $5 today was just as good as $5 next week, or the week after.
But the truth is, having a strong quarterly filing is one of the most important things a campaign can do to set itself up for success.
Everyone from journalists to opponents to potential endorsers will read these reports when assessing whether Callie is a serious threat to Rep. Bergman. (She is.)
We know that Callie has the grit and the tenacity to go all the way – now, we need your financial support to prove to the world that she's got the resources to win, as well.

Thank you so much for your support, and for the countless kind words you've sent our family since we launched this campaign.
