Hi John, Chanita checking in here — Rep. Jahana Hayes’ campaign finance director.
The FEC deadline on June 30 is the first since the backers of Jahana’s far-right opponent announced they would be pouring millions of dollars of inflammatory, misleading, negative advertising into our district, and frankly, we have to make up ground:
- The Koch Brothers network invested $1.5 MILLION
- GOP Speaker Mike Johnson’s super PAC announced $1.1 MILLION
Jahana does not rely on shady groups to fund her campaigns — she counts on lots of online donations from supporters like you.
This election will be extremely close, and reaching our fundraising goal by the FEC deadline will not only determine whether we can invest the resources necessary to win. It will also send an important signal to the far-right megadonors who are propping up George Logan whether they can get away with investing even more — or if the strength of Jahana’s grassroots team will give them pause.
John, will you be part of the team that defends Jahana’s seat in CT-05 and helps us lead the fight to flip the House blue? We need your $5 of support to reach this goal. Please chip in.
If you've saved your payment information with ActBlue Express, your donation will go through immediately:
We cannot expect to match the flood of far-right money coming into CT-05 dollar for dollar, but we need to raise enough to make sure they do not drown us out entirely.
Thanks for your support,
Chanita Thompson
Finance Director
