Friend,
Like the working families we represent here in IL-17, we know a thing or two about making the most of every dollar.
A major lesson we have learned after two hard-fought campaigns is that we need to build our war chest sooner – before the election year – rather than leave things to chance when the race heats up.
It took $5 million to win this seat last cycle. When Eric first ran for Congress, he made 1,600 hours of fundraising calls. Raising money early allowed us to make investments that brought in an extra $100,000 in interest. Smart decisions like this were the backbone of our success, and we need to do that again.
It’s critical that we don’t fall short early, and we’ve found that smart, early donations go much further than when they come at the last minute. Investing early means we can stretch your donation’s value for the long haul.
The bottom line is that this grassroots movement powered Eric to victory in 2022 and 2024 – and with your early support, we can do it again. Please consider donating $3 or whatever you can afford today to ensure our dollars go further when it matters most.
If you've saved your payment information with ActBlue Express, your donation will go through immediately:
Thanks for your support,
Jacob
Finance Director
