Let me tell you why:
John,
I'm reaching out today to respectfully ask if you'll click here and split a contribution — of $3, $5, or anything you can — between Summer Lee and my campaign today.
Let me tell you why:
You may already know that when I first ran for Congress in 2018, I decided to reject all donations from corporate PACs.
At the time, a lot of people saw it as a bold move. But to me, it was barely a decision at all.
My team and I felt that the only way we could build a grassroots, people-powered movement and run a campaign that stuck true to our values was to lead by example. And that started with funding it all the right way — together.
Since then, hundreds of thousands of progressives from all across the country have stood by my side and proven us right.
We've proven that together, a mass movement of everyday working people could fund not just one, but three winning congressional campaigns $5, $15, and $50 at a time.
Now, it's no surprise that running our campaigns this way requires an incredible amount of effort, and that a huge portion of our budget each month comes from small-dollar donations made to emails just like this one.
That's why I'm reaching out to you directly today. Because with tomorrow's primary fast approaching, I'm counting on your support to keep this campaign going strong.
So please: Can you split a contribution — $25 or whatever you can afford — between Summer Lee and our re-election campaign today? The only way we'll hit our goals is if we're all chipping in.

Thanks for reading. And thanks for chipping in today if you can.
In solidarity,
Ilhan
