Friend, we wanted to make sure you saw this email from Pat about our important end-of-quarter fundraising deadline on Monday.

These deadlines are important benchmarks as we file a public fundraising report detailing just how strong our campaign is at this moment. Any sign of weakness could open us up to outside attack.

That’s why we’re counting on your support now. Please chip in here to help us reach our goal:

Hey friend,

This grassroots team has been by my side through three tough elections, and there is no one else I’d rather have by my side in this next hard fight.

We invested all our funds in talking to voters and winning last November. Now, it’s essential we rebuild our warchest early to make the long term investments we need to win again: crucially, our end-of-quarter fundraising deadline is on June 30th. I’m going to explain why this moment is so important, and why we’ll be emailing more than usual, but first, I have to ask:

Will you chip in to help me reach my end-of-quarter fundraising goal before the deadline in five days? You can use this link here: https://secure.actblue.com/donate/[email protected]

Please, let me explain:

Four times a year, campaigns are legally required to report how much their campaign has raised. These public fundraising reports are pored over by political insiders, the press, and potential opponents looking to size up our campaign and see if we have any weaknesses they can exploit.

I have been proud to be a vocal opponent of the Trump administration and the disastrous impacts on our military, on our seniors, and on our communities. When it comes to protecting our rights, securing our benefits for seniors, and defending the constitution, I am always up for the fight. That’s what the people of the Hudson Valley sent me to Washington to do.

But that work has also put a target on this campaign. NY-18 remains one of the most competitive congressional districts in the country, and National Republicans are keying in on it as one of their top investment opportunities.

This report is extra important, because we usually see a decline in grassroots fundraising over the summer. Coming up short will mean filing a report that encourages Republicans to invest here – they will see lack of resources as an opportunity to flip a seat.

We need to make it clear that this grassroots team represents a formidable opponent, and is not to be messed with. Grassroots donations from emails like this make up an important portion of our fundraising.

So, I’m counting on you to help ensure that our public fundraising report makes it clear that our campaign is built to win. That’s why I’m asking: Will you chip in any amount to help me hit my end-of-quarter fundraising goal before Monday’s deadline?
