Herbert,

I was asked today why I would leave the relative stability of county government to enter the fray in Washington.

The answer is simple: it’s because of the chaos we see unfolding right now. That dysfunction is exactly why I chose to run for Congress.

At a time when division and reckless brinkmanship threaten our very future, we need leaders who bring integrity, steadiness, and common sense to the table. We need voices committed not to political games, but to the people we serve.

But I can’t do this alone. We are just hours away from our final end-of-quarter deadline of the year, and I still need to raise $1,000 to meet our goal.

Will you stand with me -- today -- so we can prove the strength of this grassroots movement and show that real leadership still matters?

Anything you can contribute will make a difference.

Gratefully,
