Hi John,

It’s Hannah Pingree reaching out to say thank you for helping make the launch of our campaign for Governor so successful! We are only one week into the campaign, and donations have come in from all 16 counties and more than 300 towns across Maine. And I’ve heard from supporters of all ages with so many messages of encouragement and support. I am so grateful!

If you haven’t had a chance to pitch in yet, you can do that here.

Let me tell you why I’m so fired up:

The President has targeted our state, our Governor, our farmers, and even our kids’ education funding. He is attacking the very foundations of our democracy. Now, he’s proposing to defund health care, food programs, and heating assistance, on top of implementing tariffs that are already having devastating consequences for Maine jobs and our economy. And he’s coming for our environment too—proposing to cut storm recovery programs, gut pollution protections, and even proposing to drill for oil off the coast of Maine!

Maine families are facing challenges—costs continue to rise, housing is unaffordable, and getting access to basic health care is becoming increasingly challenging—especially in rural Maine.

I am running for Governor because I believe there has never been a more important time to stand up for Maine. From growing up in a small town and helping my neighbors to serving as the Speaker of the Maine House, I learned that if something needs to be done, you come together, dig in, and make it happen.

So if you’re with me, will you join our movement and become a founding donor today? Even just $9 can go a long way in helping me get this campaign off the ground!

Thanks for being on our team,

Hannah
