JOHN: in just a few hours, the first presidential debate between President Joe Biden and former president turned convicted felon Donald Trump will take place.

Two visions will become clear: democracy for all, or further division and hate.

Before I go on – chip in any amount to ensure we hit our crucial $30,000 June goal before Sunday’s FEC deadline. Every donation allows us to have the resources to turn out every last voter in the Tenth District on Election Day.

This debate has huge ramifications for Election Day. We can move forward and continue all the deep, meaningful work that President Biden has done over the last four years. Or we go back in time with a convicted felon who emphasizes hate, bigotry, and lies.

From abortion rights to healthcare to an inclusive economy for all, everything is on the line. Especially if Donald Trump and John James get reelected in November.

I know for certain that Republicans are working around the clock to keep their razor-thin House Majority and maintain a far-right, extremist agenda. Heck, a GOP super PAC is preparing to spend $4.3 million in ads to buy John James' seat.

After coming within 1,600 votes of beating John James, MAGA Republicans are scared that we will flip this seat and Democrats will have a trifecta.

Your support can help my campaign flip the House blue and restore no-nonsense leadership back in Washington. Will you chip in $10 or any amount to help us reach our end-of-quarter goal before our FEC deadline and stop the MAGA agenda?

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

Let's do this!
