Friend,

Thank you for your unwavering support last year.

Whether you chipped in, added your name to a petition, responded to a survey, or simply read our emails to stay up to date with what we’ve been doing — every action makes a difference for our campaign.

We recently learned our reelection campaign has raised over $2 million so far this election cycle, and I want you to know that none of this would be possible without you, so I’m incredibly grateful you're standing with us in this fight.

Now that we’ve entered the election year, we’ll need strong grassroots support to keep up the fight for families, farmers, and veterans across Central and Southern Illinois.

With multiple opponents vying to flip this seat, the path ahead won’t be easy, but together, I know we can meet this moment with the urgency it deserves because change can’t wait.

The American people are waiting for us to secure the right to vote, defend reproductive freedom, lower childcare costs, and expand access to quality healthcare — and I’m ready to deliver.

My work in Congress is just getting started, so I look forward to continuing working together to defend my seat in November.

I hope your year is off to a great start!

We’ll talk more soon,

Nikki
