Hey team,
There’s a lot at stake in this election.
That’s why we need to make sure to re-elect Abby. She fights for the needs of working Iowans every day in Congress.
Check out Martin Sheen’s (President Bartlett from The West Wing!) message below on why we need to re-elect Abby this November.
And, if you can, chip in $10 or $20 today to help us reach our end-of-quarter fundraising goal before September 30 so we have the resources to win.
Thank you,
Team Abby

Subject: I can’t picture a better candidate for IA-01 than Abby Finkenauer
Hello there,
My name is Martin Sheen, though you may remember me as President Bartlet on The West Wing.
I don’t have the kind of (fictional) power that I used to have as a (fictional) president. But I’ve devoted my life outside of acting to political activism by doing everything I can to support the causes and candidates that I believe in, like Abby Finkenauer.
Let me tell you, it’s not every day that you meet a candidate like Abby Finkenauer. She is the kind of leader that we tried to portray in The West Wing’s best moments -- inspiring, hardworking, and dedicated to facing challenges head on and getting results.
Right now, I’m reaching out to you because Abby Finkenauer has an important fundraising deadline coming up on September 30. Will you join me in supporting Abby Finkenauer at this key moment in her campaign by chipping in $20 or more?

To get a little personal, politics to me is about hope. It’s about our children being able to experience a brighter, more just tomorrow because of what we fight for today. And that starts with voting.
Elections are a time where we come together as a country to decide whether or not the politics of our present represent who we are as Americans or if we’ve gone too far off track. In 2018, it was the American people who decided that enough was enough and elected one of the most diverse freshman classes into the House of Representatives.
And now, as we inch closer to November 2020, perhaps the most consequential election of our lifetimes, we are once again taking our voices to the ballot box. And I can’t picture a better person to represent IA-01 than Abby Finkenauer.
Abby’s determination, and commitment to fighting for Iowa’s First District is evident in her career and her character. She will bring values that are sorely needed to Washington and work to make life better for the First District. I’ve never run for office. But I’ve seen a lot of campaigns up close, so I know it’s not easy. Abby needs all the support we can give her to win her election in November, so we can’t let her miss a single fundraising deadline between now and then.
Thank you,
Martin Sheen
