Hey, it’s Gabe. There are three things I need you to know right now:

1️⃣ Two weeks ago, House Republicans passed a budget that would slash Medicaid and give tax cuts to ultra-wealthy billionaires.

2️⃣ Last week, our race was named a Frontline district by the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee — meaning we’re a top target for Democrats to protect in 2026, but also for Republicans to flip.

3️⃣ This week, after bringing us to the brink of shutdown for the THIRD time since they took the majority, House Republicans passed a partisan funding bill that leaves Elon Musk’s power unchecked and cuts funding for veterans.

With so much going on here in Washington, I need you to do one thing for me, John.

Hitting every single fundraising goal is more important than ever right now — especially with me being one of the first to be named a Frontliner for 2026. My team and I set a goal to raise $5,500 before our mid-month fundraising deadline this Friday at midnight, and we need your help to get there. Will you chip in $10 to support my campaign right now?

John, with House Republicans demonstrating their inability to govern in new ways every single day, they know their majority is at risk.

Right now, they hold one of the slimmest majorities in HISTORY, and keeping key districts like ours blue will be the difference between issuing a critical check on Trump’s power or enduring another two years under a Republican trifecta.

We knew from the start that Republicans would have their sights set on flipping this seat in 2026, and they’re willing to do — and spend — whatever it takes to replace me with Trump’s hand-picked MAGA puppet.

We need to raise $5,500 before Friday at midnight to prove we have what it takes to keep NM-02 blue and help Democrats flip the House in 2026. Will you rush $10 right now to support my campaign? →
