Team, 

Let's be clear: Medicare for All, legalizing marijuana, taxing the rich, and a Green New Deal are extremely popular, mainstream ideas — regardless of party. The polling shows it, and we're hearing it in conversations with voters, too.

So why is Texas "represented" by right-wing extremists like Roger Williams, who is so out of step with what most Americans want? It's an easy answer: Gerrymandering.

TX-25 was intentionally drawn by Texas Republicans to disenfranchise young, rural, urban, Black, and Latinx voters — all to rig the game against the working class in favor of older, wealthier, white-er economic elites like the multi-millionaire incumbent.

But we can break this pattern — and in 11 days, we're going to show the country that progressive ideas can swing the reddest of districts. Can you rush a contribution to our statistically-tied campaign to help us reach more voters in these final 11 days? As of now, we're still $2,106 short of our $12,450 daily goal — so your support could put us over the top:

Despite everything you've heard, many Texans don't sit out elections because they don't care — they sit out because politicians aren't speaking to the problems they're facing. Worse yet, they believe politicians don't dare to tackle them after they are elected. 

That's why our campaign has worked, not only to win over persuadable voters but to register new voters in TX-25 over the last three years on the issues that matter to them. And according to new data from Tufts University, we're making a difference: Texas is leading the nation in youth voter turnout.

I know we have much more in common than the pundits think we do — we're hearing it in conversations with voters every day. And when I'm in Congress, you can trust I'll be fighting for a vision of a more equitable future for all of us — because it's one we share. 

If you agree, rush a contribution to this grassroots campaign so we can hit our daily fundraising goal and reach more voters who don't always turn out for elections with a message to believe in. 

Thanks for everything you're doing to power this movement,

Julie
