Good afternoon,
I hope this finds you well. I’m reaching out because I know how much you care about helping Democrats take back the House Majority.
This week marks the start of the DCCC’s Red Alert program, which highlights Frontline Members and Red to Blue candidates in some of the most competitive races across the country. With less than 100 days until Election Day,
the stakes could not be higher.
Democratic candidates are hitting the ground across their districts and working tirelessly to communicate their message to voters in order to win in November and deliver for the American people in Congress.
But they need your help:
Red to Blue candidates Amish Shah (AZ-01) and Carl Marlinga (MI-10) recently emerged from competitive primaries and need the necessary resources to build a strong and winning general election campaign.
New Hampshire's primary election is on September 10 - the latest primary of any state - where three Republicans are vying to take on Hon. Chris Pappas (NH-01) in the general election. Given the cost of communicating in the Boston media market, Rep. Pappas will need support to ensure he has the resources to run an aggressive general election campaign and effectively communicate his message.
Shomari Figures (AL-02), Hon. Val Hoyle (OR-04), and Hon. Andrea Salinas (OR-06) are facing dark money being poured into their districts by Republican super PACs, and Figures and Salinas specifically have Republican opponents who are wealthy self-funders.
Republicans have already spent almost $2 million in south Texas, supporting an anti-choice extremist. Just this week, Republicans started reserving broadcast television for negative attacks against Hon. Vicente Gonzalez’s (TX-34), and he needs more support to ensure he can get on air and start communicating his message to remind South Texans that he’s fighting for them.
Derek Tran (CA-45), Curtis Hertel (MI-07), and Laura Gillen (NY-04) are running their races in some of the most expensive media markets in the country. They need to be able to get their message out and compete against right wing, extremist attacks.
I am asking you to contribute today to these 10 House Democratic candidates that have the toughest races in the nation, so we can take back the House Majority.
The DCCC Red Alert candidates need resources today. These are candidates in incredibly competitive districts where your funds will have an immediate impact. They need the resources to stand against dark money attacks. With your help, they can reach more voters and get out the vote on Election Day.
