Hi there, friend.

In a second, I’m going to ask you to make a $5 donation to my re-election campaign in Illinois’ 17th District. Before I do, I want to explain why it’s so important that we keep our fundraising momentum going strong in these final days before the election.

Far-right groups are spending big against us. Groups like the NRCC and the Koch Brothers have already dumped hundreds of thousands into this race, and they’ve only added to that total in the last week. We need to counter their spending in real time in order to get my message to voters.

This is one of the closest House races in the country. Our recent internal poll shows an extremely tight race, with turnout being the deciding factor. The bottom line: this race could go either way.

IL-17 will help determine which party controls the House. If we lose this district, the chances Republicans keep the House go up dramatically. That means their democracy-threatening, anti-choice agenda could be imposed on the American people starting next year.

With all that in mind, I’m now asking you to chip in whatever you can in support of our campaign. This is an extremely close race, and the stakes couldn’t be higher. Contribute $5 or more today.

Together,

- Eric
