This is big y'all: 

Our underdog campaign just outraised Roger Williams, the multi-millionaire incumbent, by 235%! We were able to raise $217,227.05 last quarter through over 3,100 individual contributions, and our average contribution was just $30.94.

But we can't stop now. Roger Williams is taking notice of our momentum and scrambling to make a splash. He just booked more than $900,000 in broadcast and cable television ads to reach voters in the fall.

To defeat Roger Williams in November, we must expand on our investments in digital ads and do much more to mobilize voters through grassroots organizing. Ramping up those efforts depends on the resources we have now and over the next four months — and starting a monthly donation today will give us the financial certainty to sustain that work. 

If you can afford it at this time, will you start a monthly gift of $3 or more to our campaign today? Whether it's $3 or $25, we appreciate it all the same.

I am SO proud of the way we're running this grassroots campaign, powered by people, without a single dime from PACs, joint fundraising committees, or lobbyist money. I'm particularly proud that 81.6% of our contributions came from Texas.

Roger Williams typically receives hundreds of thousands of dollars in out-of-district donations from banking and insurance company PACs and the Koch brothers. 63% of his fundraising this quarter came from PACs!

The dysfunction, toxicity, and gridlock we see in Congress is a function of big money preventing meaningful progress. We have to change the way we do politics in this country so that Congress works for people, not corporations.

Even in the face of a global pandemic, we're building something special here in TX-25. But we can't rest for a single second. Just because Roger Williams raised a paltry amount of money doesn't mean we can rest easy — he's got plenty of personal wealth and special interest donors to count on in the final months of this race. 

That's why your sustained investment in this movement couldn't come at a better time. Start your monthly gift to this campaign today so we can counter Roger Williams' big money with grassroots power.

Onward,

Julie
