John,

In a moment, we're going to ask you to make a contribution to Callie's campaign. But before we do, let us tell you why your support, right now, is so crucial:

• At the end of this month, the campaign will submit its first quarterly fundraising report of 2024.

These fundraising reports are the lifeblood of a campaign. Everyone – from pundits, to journalists, to potential endorsers — pay attention to see which campaigns are raising the money they need to win, and which campaigns are falling behind. We can't afford to be in that second group.

• This quarter is the toughest for campaign’s to raise, due to how short it is.

February is a short month, meaning we had a few less days to fundraise compared to other quarters. Additionally, this year Easter falls on the last day of the quarter (which is normally a heavy fundraising day). Both of these facts mean that we're fighting an uphill battle trying to keep our fundraising up against previous filings - which is why we need your support more than ever!

• We're only 5 months away from the Michigan primary.

There is no better time to invest in this race – because doing so will both help us run up the score before our filing deadline, but also let us build out the infrastructure to run an efficient campaign all summer long.

Here's the bottom line: This campaign cannot survive without the grassroots support of everyday Michiganders.

So please, if you've been considering supporting Callie's campaign for Congress, now is the time to make an investment.

Gratefully,

Team Callie Barr
