John,

One year ago today, I announced my campaign for Congress in New York’s 19th District!

Our campaign has made so much progress over the last year. Before I fill you in on the state of our race today, will you consider chipping in $5 or whatever you can to help us keep building on our campaign’s momentum?

NY-19 is highly competitive. After redistricting, our race is now the most competitive district in Upstate New York, and it’s one of the most competitive in the entire country. Experts have already rated our race a TOSS-UP, and national Democrats have named this a Red to Blue campaign, making it one of our top pickup opportunities in November.

My Republican opponent, Marc Molinaro, has shown us who he’s working for–and it’s not us. Over the past year, Molinaro played a pivotal role in electing Mike Johnson as Speaker of the House, endorsed Donald Trump to be the next President, and accepted tens of thousands of dollars from corporate PACs. On top of all that, he called his own constituents too stupid to know or care what’s going on in Congress.

Our grassroots campaign is gaining momentum. We’re one of the only challenger campaigns in the country to outraise an incumbent opponent, and we just had our most successful fundraising quarter yet–all with support from grassroots donors and without accepting a penny from corporate PACs.

John, none of this would be possible without supporters like you, so I hope you know how thankful we are.

But we still have so much work to do ahead of November’s critical election, so I have to ask: Will you contribute $5 or whatever you can today to help us continue growing our grassroots campaign and flip this seat from red to blue?

With gratitude & high hopes,

Josh
