Hi John, we have some news.

The good news: Grassroots supporters have gotten back in the game this month after a very slow April.

The bad news: Unfortunately our fundraising is still falling short and at this rate, we will not reach our May goal in time.

It’ll take a lot of resources to reach every voter in IL-14, and we can’t do it without your support. We need your help, John.

The solution: if just three people from your neighborhood chip in $4 right now, we’ll reach our monthly goal instantly! If that happens, we can safely say that your inbox will be spared from the full number of end-of-month emails we’ve got planned.

The truth is, we’d rather not ask for donations so often, but what we raise from emails like this directly funds our work to stamp out Lauren's opponent James Marter and MAGA extremism, put an end to Republican chaos in Congress, and connect with every voter in IL-14.

Without your support through email, we'd never reach our fundraising goals or have the resources to keep our campaign up and running.

Lauren has been a tireless advocate for our community, working to expand access to affordable health care, lower costs, create jobs, protect our environment, and champion the rights of working families. With your support, we can reach our monthly fundraising goal and continue this important work.

We really could use your help, John. Can you chip in $4 toward our May goal today? Every dollar we raise is a clear message to our opponent and MAGA extremists that the folks in IL-14 categorically reject their, simply put, awful agenda.

Thank you for your support.
