Hey John - I just stepped away from Joe Biden’s drive-in town hall in Moosic tonight. Didn’t he do a great job? I was honored to attend and hear directly from the Vice President on the kitchen table issues so important to everyday Americans. I hope to see Joe back in Northeastern Pennsylvania very soon!

But I’m bumping up Colleen’s email from earlier because my team predicted that Biden’s visit would incense Republicans who would then fight back with more high-profile GOP surrogates and dark money.

Well John, looks like this prediction came true faster than any of us could have expected. Eric Trump is coming to our district tomorrow to campaign for Republicans like his dad and my opponent.

Our Rapid Response Fund is still dangerously low. That’s why I’m personally asking you to rush a $8 contribution now. I’m dropping a link that’ll go directly to our fund below - I hope to see your donation come through:

Subject: Another visit to prepare for...

Team — a quick recap on the high profile surrogates who have stumped in Northeastern Pennsylvania:FIRST: Donald Trump came to PA-08 for the first town hall of his 2020 campaign.

THEN: Donald Trump came to PA-08 **again** and praised our opponent, Jim Bognet.

NEXT: Mike Pence came to PA-08 and handed the microphone to Jim Bognet to spread lies about Matt’s record.

BUT NOW: We are finally going to have a high profile visitor we will actually be excited to see! Tonight, Vice President Joe Biden will be in Scranton for a CNN town hall. Will you chip in so we can prepare? [[link removed]]

I know we are all very excited to host Vice President Biden, but this means the target on our back is only getting bigger.

When National Republicans see Joe Biden standing beside Matt Cartwright in his hometown of Scranton, winning back voters and returning momentum to Democrats, you better believe they will raise the alarm. GOP operatives will rush more dark money and national surrogates to PA-08 to keep up their work to flip this swing district from blue to red.

That’s why I’m asking you to help us prepare. We know Vice President Biden’s visit will inspire Republicans to cut bigger checks and send more big names to our district. We have to be ready, but after all these Republican VIP visits recently, our Rapid Response Fund is running dry. Will you rush a donation right now? [[link removed]]
