Hi John,
Folks usually ask for just one good reason to support Delia's campaign for Congress. Today, our team has five:
1️⃣ Delia has spent her whole life helping people in her community – first as the "mail lady" for her local homeless shelter, then in Springfield in the Illinois House, and now in Congress.
2️⃣ Delia's a history-maker – not only is she the first Latina from the Midwest to serve in Congress, she's also the only member of both chambers to come from a mixed status household.
3️⃣ In just her first year in Congress, she stood up for veterans' education, advanced legislation that would protect tenants' rights to organize, and co-led the reintroduction of the American Dream and Promise Act.
4️⃣ Delia holds herself accountable to her constituents, that's why she's never accepted donations from corporate PACs.
5️⃣ This November, she's up against an anti-choice, anti-safety opponent whose values align better with MAGA Republicans than with the people in our community.
John, we'll give you one more reason your support is so important: this Sunday marks our team's first End of Quarter Fundraising Deadline of the year. After a successful primary where Delia ran uncontested, it's important that we keep our momentum up with a strong finance report.
To ensure that we'd be in a solid spot for the future, we challenged ourselves to raise $10,000. With only $6,412 left to meet our goal, we're only asking for $5 today. Can we count on your support?
