We closed out 2025 with a record-breaking fundraising haul, John, but digital fundraising has slowed down a bit to start 2026.

Enter, our first major hurdle of the year: Our January fundraising goal.

Look, you and I both know that our 2025 successes weren’t just a flash in the pan. We’ve got staying power. 💪💪💪

But I want everyone else to see that, too, because believe it or not, there are still loads of Iowans who haven’t been following this race too closely yet.

If those folks look at our campaign and they see us crushing goals, building a big tent, having conversations with their neighbors — hey, that might just be the push they need.

So what do you say, John: Will you help us start the week — and end the month — with a little boost by chipping in $25 today? We’ve set a $200,000 digital fundraising goal, and I’m counting on grassroots supporters like you to help us hit it!

If you’ve saved your payment information with ActBlue Express, your donation will go through immediately.

Thanks!
