Team, we’ve been busy reaching out to people all over the district, helping out however we can in this incredibly difficult time.

We keep hearing from small business owners who were either having trouble accessing funds through the SBA, or who were shut out of the federal stimulus relief entirely.

So you can imagine how hurtful it was for us to read the news that dropped in the Dallas Morning News on Friday: Congressman Roger Williams — one of the wealthiest members of Congress with an estimated net worth of $27.7 million — took advantage of the Paycheck Protection Program to secure a loan for his own car dealership, even while small businesses in the 25th are being shut out of the program. It’s unacceptable.

Austin and Central Texas deserve a representative who will serve the people, not themselves. Will you make a contribution of $3 or more to this campaign today to help Julie flip TX-25? >> [link removed]

We shouldn’t be surprised when we learn that members of Congress and their corporate donors abuse their positions of public trust and power to move to the front of the line, while mom and pop businesses who are hurting in Texas got shut out.

The Paycheck Protection Program — part of the CARES Act recently passed in Congress — is designed to provide a lifeline for many small businesses struggling to get through the COVID-19 pandemic by providing forgivable loans that can be used to cover payroll and other expenses for up to eight weeks.

But so far, the program has failed to deliver for small business owners that need it the most. That’s because a lot of the money in the first round of funding for the program went to business owners with the best relationships and capital like Roger Williams himself.

Enough. We can change the way we do politics in this country — we can actually elect a member of Congress like Julie who will fight for the people of this district, not hang them out to dry when the going gets tough. Contribute $3 or more to our campaign today so we can send Roger Williams packing this November. >> [link removed]

Thanks for everything,

Team Julie
