From the dangerous rhetoric of political leaders to the unsettling incidents of suspicious packages targeting election offices, the very foundation of our electoral system sometimes seems like it’s under attack.

An envelope containing white powder was sent to my election office last week from the “U.S. Traitor Elimination Army.”. Luckily, testing revealed it to be non-hazardous, and I am grateful that no one was injured or harmed.

My office is only the latest election office to receive such suspicious packages. This is a blatant attempt to sow fear and chaos, while former President Donald Trump's escalating rhetoric about election “cheating” adds fuel to the fire.

We need to stand strong against these attacks on our democratic values. Your support is crucial in supporting my work to combat disinformation, strengthen our democracy, and ensure the integrity of our elections.

The resources we raise put us in a better position to combat misinformation. I’m asking you to ensure we have the resources to fight back by helping us raise $10,000 this week. Will you please chip in $10 or more now? [[link removed]]

The escalation of political intimidation and dangerous rhetoric is unacceptable.

Together, we can send a powerful message that our democracy is resilient, and we won't be swayed by fear or intimidation.

This is a big moment for my campaign this year. The election is just days away and we need to fight back against disinformation. John, that’s why I need your help. Will you please chip in $5 or more to help us hit our weekly goal? [[link removed]]

Thanks,

Steve
