Friend,

In my first run for Congress in 2018, we worked hard to build a campaign that invited everyone to the table. It's an approach to politics that I'm bringing to Washington, and it's why I'm excited about our mid-month fundraising goal.

Our goal is not a big dollar number, but a big participation number: We're asking for 500 donations by midnight Friday -- and every donation counts.

Our next big deadline is coming fast. Will you bring us closer to our 500-donation goal by contributing today?

As the pandemic wears on and economic uncertainty looms, special interests and Republican PACs are hoping that grassroots campaigns like ours will not be able to raise enough money to stay strong through Election Day.

I've never taken a dime from PACs, lobbyists, special interests, or other members of Congress. And I never will. But grassroots donors like you power this campaign -- and we can't wait any longer to show we're ready for the fight ahead.

Winning in 2020 won't be easy, but it will be easier with you. If you can, I hope you'll chip in today to bring us closer to our 500-donation goal by midnight Friday.

Thanks for all you do,

Dean
