John, I understand that organizers don’t have unlimited resources. I understand that sometimes, we have to make tough calls. I understand that big dreams take time to achieve.
But I will never understand how anyone could look me in the eyes and tell me that my home state – and everyone living there – isn’t “worth” fighting for.
Still, every day, people try to claim that Florida is too red, too far gone, too deep under the thumb of the far-right fascists like Ron DeSantis, and that we can’t “afford” to fight back.
If I’d listened to that kind of defeatism in 2022, I wouldn’t be writing to you today as the first Gen Z member of Congress. And I’m damn sure not listening to it now.
It takes real work to win tough fights. But it’s work we know how to do, and I believe we can do it. If you’re with me to win across Florida and prove that organizing can beat the odds, will you donate whatever you can right now? >>
Thanks to people like you, chipping in spare change and sometimes digging even deeper, we’re gaining serious ground in Florida. This state is in play, and you won’t catch me on the sidelines when everything from our education to our democracy to our planet’s survival is at stake.
Now, I’m not gonna sugarcoat what we’re really up against. It’s true that Floridians have been subjected to a beta version of Project 2025 for years, and that it’s caused real suffering. It’s true that billionaire weirdos have been funding fascism here for even longer.
But that’s exactly why we have to fight back. If we don’t advocate for a better future, we accept the one Ron DeSantis and Donald Trump are carving out for us. And their vision is unacceptable.
John, I believe so firmly in the power people like me and you have when we band together. So I’m asking you to stick with me through this fight, starting with a donation right now. Whatever you can give is your investment in the future we deserve – yes, even here in Florida. Especially here. So please: Can I count on you to donate right now to organize the end of fascism? >>
