John,

The first FEC quarterly filing deadline is coming up in just a few short days. Once this deadline passes, our campaign, along with every other campaign nationwide, must disclose our fundraising totals for the year's first quarter. Here’s why these figures in our FEC filings are crucial:

→ Donors and advocacy groups review these numbers to determine which campaigns they believe are promising and deserving of support.

→ Republicans already have an eye out for our district. They will be looking closely at our numbers to see if we’ve got the support it takes to keep this seat.

→ Solid fundraising at this point in the cycle helps us make crucial investments to protect this seat.

With the FEC deadline coming up in the next 4 days, will you contribute $4 to our campaign right away to ensure we have the resources we need to defend this seat and take back the House in November?

Thank you,

Scholten HQ
