I’m writing with an urgent update, team: With just a few days before our primary, the GOP-funded super PAC supporting Ilhan’s opponent has now spent almost $2 million to unseat Ilhan. And the truth is, we don’t have the resources or the money to combat these attacks.

Will you rush in your first donation of $5 toward our $50,000 primary goal to make sure we can keep our ad on the air and deliver a primary victory for Ilhan?

Thank you for standing with Ilhan and our movement for Medicare for All, environmental justice, and a housing guarantee.

Friend,

We’re exactly a week away from the primary, and Ilhan’s opponent and his GOP donors keep pouring in millions into TV ads and mailers smearing our movement — with no end in sight.

In this make-or-break moment for our campaign, it’s critical that we meet our $50,000 primary goal to keep our new ad championing our progressive priorities on the air. Will you chip in for the first time to make sure voters hear our bold, progressive message above the noise?

Ilhan’s focus is and has always been on building coalitions to fight for progressive priorities like Medicare for All and a housing guarantee — policies that put people over corporations and give everyone a real shot at the American dream. Supporters like you know that she has what it takes to stand up to Trump, the GOP, and their corporate donors hell-bent on stopping our progress, and it’s critical that we reach as many voters as possible with our new ad so everyone knows that we need Ilhan’s voice in Congress to keep fighting for progress.

So chip in for the first time toward our $50,000 primary goal to keep our ad on the air to combat these attack ads with our bold, progressive message.

Thank you.

Team Ilhan
