I wanted to share a little campaign update with you since you've been such an integral part of my success so far:
I'm not taking a dime of corporate PAC money.
That means my campaign will be 100% funded by grassroots donors who chip in just $10 or $25 at a time.
And because of this, MAGA-money has officially infiltrated this race. They're pouring hundreds of thousands into one of my opponents so they can defeat me. It's ridiculous.
This election is up to the people of Maryland's 3rd, not billionaires.
When I started this campaign, I did it because I am a seasoned public servant, who always put the people and institutions I was protecting before myself.
Right now, there are super PACs that are taking money from the same people trying to elect Donald Trump – and giving it to Democrats, just so they can defeat me.
But if we don't move quickly and raise enough to keep our ads afloat, it'll work. And our democracy will be *that* much closer to extinction.
