John,

I wanted to give you a heads-up on something we're facing right now. The summer slump is here. Let me explain:

Every summer, we tend to see a dip in our online fundraising. People are out enjoying vacations or simply busy with life, and that's completely understandable. But as a campaign that relies on grassroots donations from supporters like you to help us build this movement every step of the way together, we can’t afford to fall behind now.

Lauren is running in this race so she can continue to be a true advocate for the needs and concerns of northern Illinoisans in Congress. With voting rights, healthcare, reproductive freedom, and maternal health at stake right now, she needs your support more than ever.

So today, I want to highlight one especially meaningful way that you can help sustain our work together: We're just weeks away from our critical FEC end-of-quarter fundraising deadline. If enough people come together and contribute $4, $10, or whatever they can, we can overcome this summer slump and reach our goal.

So, what do you say, John? Can you contribute right now to help Lauren secure this seat and flip the House for Democrats?

If you've saved your payment information with ActBlue Express, your donation will go through immediately:

Thanks for being a part of this campaign. We couldn't do it without your support.
