John, I want to make sure you saw this note from Rep. Jeffries. We were just named to the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee’s 2026 Frontline program.

Here’s what this means for our grassroots team:

Not only will our race be one of the most competitive in the entire country, but it’s clear OH-13 is an absolute must-win seat in order to take back the House Majority.

The other side will pour millions of dollars into this race to try to defeat our team. We might even see Elon Musk’s super PAC supporting my opponent as Republicans throw everything they can our way.

It’s clear we are in for one of our most difficult elections to date.

But we are no stranger to hard fights. Thanks to the dedication and grassroots support of people like you, we were able to win in 2024 and 2022. Hard-working people across OH-13 chipped in what and when they could because they, too, believed in Northeast Ohio.

John, to win our Frontline race in 2026, it’s going to require that same level of dedication, support, and belief that a better future is possible. I know we have what it takes to win another ultra-competitive election, but only if this team is by my side. Please, can I count on you to pitch in to our Frontline campaign?

Yours in Service,

Emilia

John,

It’s Hakeem Jeffries. My colleague Rep. Sykes’s race in OH-13 has been named to the DCCC’s Frontline list. Frontline is the DCCC’s battle-tested program to provide Democratic Members of Congress from competitive seats the resources to run aggressive, forward-looking and people-centered campaigns.

This is a must-win race if we are going to win back the House in 2026. Can you chip in $10 right now to her re-election campaign and help flip the House?

Emilia is fighting to build an economy from the bottom up and the middle out — not the top down. It is critical that we support Emilia to put an end to corruption and chaos. She can’t do it without your help. I’m asking you to give $10, or whatever you can today to support Emilia.

House Republicans and their billionaire donors are going to do whatever they can to stay in power. With your help, we can take back the majority, restore order in the People’s House and put a much needed check on the reckless Trump administration.

Keep the faith,

Hakeem
