Hi John, my name is Ady Barkan.

When I was diagnosed with ALS in 2016 and knew that my health was going to rapidly decline, I devoted myself fully to campaigning for the political change that our country desperately needs.

That’s why I’m proud to lend my support to Chris Bubser. I know that Chris has what it takes to fight for the people of CA-08 in Washington, and bring real change to her community and her country.

I also know that first-time Congressional candidates can’t win without robust grassroots support right up until Election Day -- and Chris is up against a particularly important fundraising deadline. That’s why I’m asking: will you make a donation to support Chris’s campaign today?

Because I live with ALS, the issue of healthcare access and affordability is particularly important to me. Chris has seen the failings of our medical system firsthand -- when she worked to improve it and deliver lifesaving care throughout her career, and when she fought to get coverage for her daughter.

As a result, Chris is committed to making sure that all Americans have access to the care -- including those like me, who need health care in order to live.

I know that on this issue, and so many others, she will be a leader, a voice of reason and pragmatism -- that her heart is in the right place, and above all, that she will get things done.

Please join me in supporting Chris and make a donation to support her campaign today. I know that every $10 or $15 will go a long way in helping her meet her goal.

Thank you for being in this fight,

Ady Barkan
