Hi John. My name is Amish Shah, and I am an Emergency Physician in Phoenix, Arizona.

For the past five years, I've had the privilege of serving in the Arizona House of Representatives. Today, I have the distinct honor of being the Democratic nominee in Arizona’s 1st Congressional District, one of the top pick-up opportunities for Democrats in the entire country. [[link removed]]

I wanted to take a moment to introduce myself and tell you why this race matters, but if you don’t have time to spare, can you chip in a $10 gift to me and ASPIRE to help me flip AZ-01 — and the House — blue? [[link removed]]

My parents are Indian immigrants who came to America seeking a better life as engineering students. I was raised in an environment where education was revered as the cornerstone of success. I went to medical school to become a physician, ran for local office (and won), and I have dedicated my life to service ever since.

I am very proud to have:

*
Fought
(and
defeated)
one
of
the
most
restrictive
abortion
bans
in
the
State
House
and
worked
to
preserve
access
to
mifepristone
*
Taken
on
an
incumbent
to
win
a
seat
in
the
State
House
—
where
I’ve
passed
more
bills
than
any
Arizona
Democrat
in
a
decade
*
Personally
knocked
on
over
21,000
doors
to
engage
voters
and
listen
to
their
concerns
*
Swore
off
corporate
PAC
money

Now as the nominee, I am committed to running a campaign that focuses on listening to, caring about, and fighting for the people of Arizona. As an emergency room physician and a legislator, I have seen firsthand the need for congressional leadership focused on reproductive justice, a fair economy, and protecting our democracy.

My Republican opponent - Rep. David Schweikert has supported abortion bans, celebrated the fall of Roe v. Wade, and spent weeks denying the 2020 presidential election results before joining his extremist colleagues and voting against certifying the election. Quite simply, he is out of step with the voters in this district.

The good news is that Schweikert is vulnerable, and we are in a strong position to flip this seat. Last cycle he won by 3,195 votes (just 0.8%). The Cook Political Report has already rated my district as a “toss-up” this year — but I can’t win this race without your help.

Will you split a $10 contribution between ASPIRE and my General Election Fund TODAY so we can hit the ground running to flip this seat BLUE in November? [[link removed]]

Chip in $10 now >> [[link removed]]
Chip in $25 now >> [[link removed]]
Chip in $50 now >> [[link removed]]
Chip in $100 now >> [[link removed]]
Chip in another amount now >> [[link removed]]

We are in this together — and we are going to win.

Respectfully,

Amish Shah, MD, MPH
