Friend, I’ll keep this quick:

I’m reaching out because we’re officially halfway through our second fundraising quarter of 2025, but we’re not quite halfway to our team’s fundraising goal. This isn’t one of those “hair on fire” email pleas, but we are pacing a bit behind and could use some help catching up.

Will you chip in a contribution today to help us pick up the pace? Any amount you’re able to give helps, and $3 from you would go a long way in helping close this gap.

There are a couple important reasons why we can’t lose momentum now.

For starters, our Republican opponent is self-funding large parts of his campaign. We already know national groups will and are funneling huge amounts of dark money into attack ads against vulnerable Democrats. Now, we have to contend with our opponent’s deep pockets.

And speaking of those national groups, we're already facing a barrage of new digital attacks from National Republicans. They’re explicitly targeting Democrats they consider to be the most “at-risk” in 2026.

We can’t let these early attacks go unanswered, friend, and the reality is that it costs money to get our message out. That’s why we’re determined to meet all of our quarterly fundraising goals, and we can’t accept any less in a district as competitive as IL-17.

So, will you help us stand strong by contributing whatever you can today? Please know that our team will always use your hard-earned dollars wisely.

Thanks again for having my back.
