I have some incredible news to share with you, JOHN: The Detroit Free Press just announced that they're endorsing me to represent MI-10 in Congress – giving their full support to our movement to defeat John James this election.

And JOHN, this endorsement could not come at a more important time. With Republicans booking $4.3 million worth of ads this fall, we need a wave of grassroots support to push us ahead in this race.

To keep the momentum going, can you pitch in $10 to our grassroots campaign so we can protect our democracy and fight for everyday Michiganders like you? We have to publicly report our fundraising numbers at the end of this month and we need your support.

The powerful Detroit Free Press editorial board joins an impressive roster of endorsements, including the Michigan Education Association, labor unions, and an array of influential Michiganders and organizations.

From protecting a woman's right to choose to protecting our beautiful Great Lakes against climate change, our campaign has the common-sense solutions that John James does not have.

Flipping our district blue and gaining a Democratic House majority is in our sights. But right now, our fundraising has slowed down – we need your help to bring us back on track.

If you agree that our district deserves a leader who fights for our democracy and against the MAGA agenda, will you contribute $10 or more to keep our campaign going? Our first FEC deadline since I filed to put my name on the ballot is fast approaching and we need to catch up on our fundraising fast.

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

Thank you all,

Carl Marlinga
