Friend --

Exactly one week from today, we're up against our first FEC fundraising deadline of the General Election.

When the books close on June 30th, we’ll report how much we've raised over the last three months. This will also be the first time that our report will be compared side by side against David Valadao’s.

This deadline has taken on new urgency. Last week, we found out that outside spending against me by National Republicans and Trump-aligned PACs hit $4.6 million. My race was already trending to become the most competitive in the state. Now, it's quickly becoming the most expensive as well.

We set a non-negotiable goal of raising $20,000 in this final week before our FEC deadline. Will you step up with your first $3 donation to help us hit our mark? We can't allow Valadao's corporate PAC allies buy this seat for him again.

We expect Valadao's report to be full of contributions from corporate PACs and wealthy donors. On ours, we’re hoping to show that our grassroots campaign is larger, stronger, and prepared to go toe-to-toe with the special interests lined up against us.

If outside groups see weakness, they’ll dump even more money into this race to drown us out. This deadline is our chance to show that we have what it takes to compete with whatever they throw our way. That means every single donation we receive before this FEC deadline is important.

Say you’re with us before this deadline by chipping in $3.

All my very best,

TJ Cox
