John, I'm reaching out personally with a humble request.

Ahead of our most important FEC end-of-quarter deadline of the election year so far, will you chip in a split donation of $10 or more between me and Fight for Progress to help me reach my $750,000 goal and win?

If you've been waiting for the right moment to make a donation to my campaign, I'm here to tell you the time is NOW.

After June 30, our numbers go public – and believe me, Ted Cruz and his wealthy extremist allies will be watching. They're already live with their first attacks against me, and if they see we don't have the resources to fight back, they'll completely drown us out.

Two polls currently show me tied with Ted Cruz, and that's a testament to this grassroots team and our powerful voter outreach efforts. We've come so far, but we can't pull ahead if we let them drown out our message.

So please, I'm humbly asking: Will you make a split donation of $10 or more between my campaign and Fight for Progress ahead of our crucial FEC deadline? Every dollar gets us closer to defeating Ted Cruz and bringing real leadership to Texas.

Thank you so much for being a part of my team. Together, we're going to win this thing.

Colin
