Dear John -
I know you must be disillusioned with politics these days, especially the kind of politics displayed in Congress.
The incentive structure for Members of Congress has been polluted in such a way that making law, crafting serious policy, and having informed, in-depth debates about the pressing challenges facing America are not priorities for our country’s leaders. Instead, Congress is full of people more interested in performance and outrage, cable news hits and social media stardom.
What’s worse is that these actions are followed by shallow, incessant fundraising appeals. You are bombarded with texts and emails for “10X matches” and “exclusive membership programs” that demand you send your hard-earned money to politicians in order for them to “fight for you” and “save our country.” I know that must be tiring.
That is why I try to offer something different.
I hope you find my messages informative and thoughtful, because that is what I am aiming for every time I communicate with you. That’s what you deserve.
You deserve to know exactly how I am going to use your donations when you generously contribute to my campaign. I use your donations to help elect serious, conservative leaders up and down the ballot across America - to sustain and grow our majority in the House and help advance conservative policies at every level of American politics. I use your donations to grow our conservative movement, with policy and political summits that attract new and younger Americans into our party. I use your donations to win the messaging battle against the far-left on the biggest debates facing the country: combating illegal immigration, protecting American energy security, and restoring strong American leadership on the world stage.
Your donations also ensure I am able to stay in Congress. The contributions from committed patriots like you across the country fuel my campaign. While many quality Members of Congress have decided to retire or resign, and that can be discouraging, I view it as all the more reason to stay in the fight.
I have been proud of the work I’ve been able to accomplish since taking office. I serve on the powerful Energy and Commerce Committee, where I’m fighting to protect American energy independence and advance commonsense solutions to our country’s healthcare challenges. I serve on the Intelligence Committee, where I’m addressing the serious national security threats facing America. And I serve as Chairman of the Cartel Task Force, where I’m developing solutions to destroy the Mexican drug cartels who are facilitating the border crisis and killing tens of thousands of Americans with fentanyl. Every term that I’ve been in Congress, I’ve passed conservative policies into law - on energy policy, on national security policy, and policies to get veterans suffering from PTSD the help they need.
All of this would be impossible without your help. I’m asking you for a donation today so that I can continue this good work for you. You can donate at this link:
