Hello John,


Since I announced my candidacy to be the next Congresswoman representing IL-9, I have been overwhelmed by the support I have received from friends, family, neighbors, and supporters. My campaign has launched with serious momentum, and that’s because the people I am running to represent know me and what I stand for: 

This campaign isn’t some vanity project for me — I have been fighting against MAGA and for the people of this district since I was old enough to vote, and I have spent the last seven years working to make my community’s public schools one the best places for children to get an education as a member of the Skokie School District 73.5 Board of Education. 


While some of my opponents might view this seat as an opportunity for a promotion, media attention or to gain more followers on social media, I view this seat as an opportunity to continue giving back to the community that raised me and improving my neighbors lives with an agenda focused on their needs — Medicare for All, cancelling student debt, making housing affordable, and much, much more.


That is why I am asking for your support so I continue my work to help those who need it the most. June 30th is the end of our fundraising quarter. Shortly after that deadline, the amount of money I have raised will become public and be used as a measure of the momentum of my campaign by opponents and the media. 


We just set an end of quarter goal of $50,000 by midnight on June 30, and we are getting closer by the minute: 



Will you help me keep the momentum by chipping in $50, $25 or even $5 so I can win this seat for the people of IL-9?
