Hey John, I know you’re probably about to head offline for the weekend, so I’ll keep this quick:

We’re coming up on our July mid-month fundraising deadline, and I need your help to hit our fundraising goal. Can I count on you to pitch in before happy hour?

If you have a little more time before logging off, let me explain the stakes of this race:

National Republicans have made defeating me a top priority. They know that the path to winning the House runs right through PA-17, and they think that this is a toss-up race they can flip.

That’s why a right-wing group is already running attack ads against me. They believe that if they flip PA-17, they can keep a hold on the House majority. They can continue to push for an extreme, nationwide abortion ban, pass tax cuts for the rich at the expense of everybody else, and put Social Security and Medicare on the chopping block.

The American people don’t want this kind of lunacy, chaos, and extremism. That’s why we’ve got to do everything we can to keep this seat so I can continue fighting to defend our freedoms.

But if we’re going to beat these extremists in November, it’s gonna take a lot of hard work and frankly, it’s going to take money.

While my opponent can rely on corporate interests and dark money, far-right groups to power his campaign, I rely on grassroots donors like you.

John, if you’re with me in this fight, and you’re able to contribute, I’m asking you to pitch in before our mid-month fundraising deadline:

Hitting these fundraising goals could make or break this competitive race, so thank you for your support,

Chris
