John,

"In 2012, on his third tour of duty in Afghanistan, an improvised explosive device left Dan Crenshaw's right eye destroyed and his left blinded. Only through the careful hand of his surgeons, and what doctors called a miracle, did Crenshaw's left eye recover partial vision. And yet, he persevered, completing two more deployments. Why? There are certain stories we tell ourselves about the hardships we face - we can become paralyzed by adversity or we can adapt and overcome. We can be fragile or we can find our fortitude. Crenshaw delivers a set of lessons to help you do just that."

That’s the description of the new book written by my friend and colleague, Navy Seal Dan Crenshaw. It’s called Fortitude: American Resilience in an Era of Outrage and I’d like to get an autographed copy to you.

It’s a book that I want you to read, to share with a friend and to give to younger Americans to remind them of America’s greatness and why it is worth fighting for and saving. We must invest in the next generation of Americans and this book is a great way to do that.

Today, America is in the midst of a battle against an invisible enemy - COVID-19. President Trump, Governor DeSantis and I understand that we must begin laying the foundation now and taking steps to get Americans back to work in a manner that is safe as we begin to reopen our economy.

We will triumph over COVID-19. That is not in doubt. And, as we come out on the back side of this, it is critically important that we do it in a way that makes America stronger.

The principles in Dan’s book can help us do that and it’s why I’m offering it to you.

Dan’s book is straightforward and no-nonsense. He provides insights from his own life, finding the strength to work through life’s challenges, from the menial to the most difficult struggle you could imagine.

Dan grew up an average American kid, but then he navigated the war zones of Afghanistan and now the halls of Congress. He tells his story with fortitude, humor and a sense of duty. There are good life lessons in here.

I spoke with Dan over the weekend and he agreed to save autographed copies for donors to my campaign. Donate $100 within the next 72 hours, and I will send you an autographed copy of Dan’s awesome book.

It is a pleasure to serve you in Congress during these uncertain times and as we prepare to rebuild in this pandemic’s aftermath. I hope to have your support as we work to Keep America Great.

God Bless You and God Bless America,

Bill Posey
