John – it’s March, which means a lot of my colleagues are fundraising for their End of Quarter Fundraising Deadline. At the end of this month, our campaigns must report how much money they’ve raised, and it’s a great chance to see how strong our momentum will be for 2026.

While this is really important, I have a different goal:

Progressives must compete EVERYWHERE if we want to END the MAGA Majority in the House.

But two Illinois Republicans went UNCHALLENGED in 2024.

That’s why this End of Quarter I’m launching my Compete Everywhere 2026 Fund, and I need your help. Can you chip in $26 to ensure we have Progressive running against every MAGA representative in 2026?

CHIP IN

John, Representative Miller and Representative LaHood, who both represent part of Illinois in Congress, did not have Democratic challengers in 2026.

This means no chance to give Progressives in these communities a voice.

No chance to flip these seats.

And no chance to win the House Majority.

But if we can give a Progressive Democrat the resources needed to mount a challenge, we have a real chance to push back against the Trump and Elon agenda and flip these seats.

And we can do this right in our backyard.

So please, John, before this End of Quarter Deadline, will you contribute to our Compete Everywhere 2026 Fund and fund challengers to uncontested MAGA seats?

Thank you,

Rep. Chuy García
