I want to try something different today, John.

I'm asking you to support my friend Candace Valenzuela — a Democratic candidate who I'm backing in the primary runoff in Texas' 24th Congressional District on July 14th. 

My race in NY-15 was a big shock to the status quo. Ballots are still being counted, but either way, voters sent a strong message that lived experience matters in Congress. And for the first time, an openly gay Afro-Latino man who grew up poor in public housing is poised to become our next Congressperson in the Bronx.

Next up is the primary runoff in Texas, where my friend Candace Valenzuela is on the verge of making some history of her own. Candace is a working mother of two who was the first Latina and Black woman to serve on her city’s school board. She's running a strong grassroots campaign focused squarely on the needs of working families and mothers in her Texas community. Policies like universal childcare, better wages, and paid family leave are all major themes of her congressional campaign.

In other words, she's exactly the kind of voice we need more of in Washington.

Will you join me in supporting Candace so that we have more allies in Congress to pass our progressive agenda for working families? [link removed]

Lke me, Candace decided to refuse corporate PAC money — she's depending on grassroots support. But as she's picked up momentum, it's attracted outside groups to rally against her. With her runoff election set to hit in less than two weeks, she's going to need a surge in grassroots contributions to fight back. That’s where you come in:

With Candace's critical July 14th primary just around the corner, chip in a donation of $25 to keep her momentum going strong —so she can continue the wave of progressive wins across the country. 

COUNT ME IN! [link removed]

I appreciate your continued support in our movement to secure a better future for working families.

In solidarity, 

Ritchie
