It’s Juliana.

I’ll get right to it: With just hours left before tonight’s mid-month fundraising deadline, we are still coming up short of our goal.

Here’s what you need to know:

Right now, I am facing an opponent with over $20 million in the bank, who is funded by corporate PACs and even Trump advisors who are tied to ICE and Project 2025.
We’re being outspent on television by my MAGA-backed opponent, who claims he will stand up to Trump but is accepting money from the very people writing his agenda.
We have less than 100 days until our Primary Day — when Illinoisans will choose who will be their next U.S. Senator.
And December is our FINAL quarterly FEC fundraising deadline before the primary election. It's our last chance to report fundraising totals for the press, political pundits, and the public to see.
And right now, we are pacing behind our FEC fundraising goals.

That’s why this moment is so critical. Tonight marks the mid-point of the month, and if we don’t catch up now, it could decide whether we meet our FEC goal or risk falling further behind.

Unlike my opponents, I don’t take a dime of corporate PAC money — so every grassroots donation matters more than you think.

So please: Can you chip in $3 — or whatever you can spare before midnight — to help me close the gap and show the strength of this movement?

With gratitude,

Juliana
