John,

 

MAGA Mike Simpson is running scared from debates.

 

First, he was a no-show at the Idaho Statesman endorsement interview. Now, I've just been informed there won't be any debates because Simpson flat-out refuses to participate.

 

Why? I think we all know the answer: Republicans are terrified of facing voters and being fact-checked.

 

We saw it in the vice presidential debate when J.D. Vance threw a fit after being corrected on his false claims about immigration. Now, my opponent, Mike Simpson, is taking the coward's way out by refusing to debate altogether.

 

But here's the thing: debates aren't just political theater. They're an important part of our democratic process. They give voters a chance to hear directly from candidates, compare their positions – and, yes, separate fact from fiction.

 

By ducking debates, Simpson is denying you that opportunity. He's betting that he can win this election without ever having to defend his record or face tough questions.

We can't let him get away with just phoning it in. With just 21 days until Election Day, voters deserve to know the truth. 

 

Simpson has consistently voted against the interests of everyday Idahoans. He voted to gut Medicare by turning it into a privatized voucher program. He also voted to establish a committee tasked with cutting Social Security. And he's stood by silently as his party spreads dangerous misinformation about our communities.

 

In contrast, I'm committed to protecting our seniors, fighting for working families, standing up for LGBTQ+ rights, and always telling you the truth - even when it's uncomfortable. That's why I'm not afraid to debate. It's why I show up every day to talk with voters about the issues that matter most. I believe that truth matters and that Idaho deserves a representative who isn't afraid to face the people.

 

But I can't win this fight alone. With time running out until votes are cast, every dollar matters in our ability to reach voters and expose Simpson's record. Will you chip in $25, $50, $75, $100, or whatever you can afford right now to help us bring real representation to ID-02 in these final 3 weeks?

 Your support doesn't just help our campaign - it sends a clear message that Idaho voters demand more from their representatives, that we won't be taken for granted, and that we value truth and transparency over cowardice and evasion.

 

Let's bring integrity back to Idaho's 2nd district and help take back the House majority.

 

Your next congressman,

 

-David

         

David Roth is a single, gay dad running for Idaho’s Second Congressional District. We’re going up against a GOP incumbent who has been in this seat for 25 years. It’s time for change in Idaho, and our grassroots campaign is building on the momentum that began in David’s race for U.S. Senate last cycle. The GOP is not planning to defend this seat, so we plan to take it from them and help Democrats retake the House majority next year. We’d love your support to build a solid campaign to bring progress to Idaho and the country.
