Hi John, it’s Valerie Foushee —

It’s time again — another FEC deadline. I know we reach out a lot around these moments so I wanted to take a minute to explain why they are SO important.

All campaigns submit fundraising numbers to the Federal Election Commission — but the numbers go public at the end of each quarter. And the GOP really does use them to gauge their chances of flipping seats and holding on to their majority in 2026, which impacts what risks they take to pass their extremist agenda in the current session.

With so much at stake, falling short of our goals could have devastating consequences for communities across the country.

My team has set an ambitious goal to raise $10,000 before our end of quarter deadline on Monday at midnight, to show Trump what we’re capable of. Will you contribute today to let the GOP know we’re not backing down?

This is our first major FEC deadline since House Republicans passed Trump’s big ugly bill by just one vote — and their goal is to pass it in the Senate by the Fourth of July. This bill puts access to healthcare, food assistance, and more on the line for millions of Americans. I won’t stand for it - with this deadline, we have an opportunity to make a statement, and I need your help.

I fight for the strength, safety, and stability of people and communities throughout my district, but it’s not lost on me that I can’t do it alone. Our opponents are watching — with your support, we can show them that we’re ready to put up a fight in 2026.

We have until Monday at midnight to raise $10,000 and show Trump that we have the resources and are building a movement to fight back. Join me and chip in $10 today ≫

Thank you for your support,

Valerie Foushee
