John, when I launched my campaign, I knew we faced a long, tough road. I would need the support of folks like you, investing in our campaign because you believed something better was possible. And you have done just that.

Thanks to this grassroots team, I’m proud to announce we just hit a major milestone: We’ve raised over $1 million in our campaign to bring change to Arizona – a record for any congressional campaign in Arizona history.

What's most important is how we did this: the great majority of our donations were from Arizona and were under $100. Chip in now to help us keep up the momentum →

This result is a strong indication of the strength of our campaign, but it is just a good beginning. The hard truth is that we’re not only up against David Schweikert, we’re up against his dark money and corporate PAC supporters.

I know we have what it takes to overcome Schweikert’s corrupting campaign finance tactics, but it’s going to mean we can’t take our foot off the gas. This result is great news, but it’s just the start. This race will be one of the most expensive in the country, and since I’m not taking money from corporate PACs, I need your help.

So, I’m counting on you to help us keep our momentum and chip into our campaign. Whether it’s $5, $50, or $500, your contribution to our people-powered campaign will get us that much closer to a Democratic House Majority. Can I count on you to make a contribution today?

We’re in what is almost definitely the most important district in America: one that could decide not just control of Congress but the White House too. No other district in the country features a top 10 congressional race as well as ground zero for the presidential campaigns. That means our race will be one of the most hard-fought and expensive House campaigns in America.

I’m so grateful for your early help and hope I can continue to count on your support as we go forward.

Thank you for being in my corner – it means the world to me.

In your service,

– Andrei
