John --

There's something you should see from last week's debate.

After dodging J.D. for months, Randy Feenstra finally agreed to just one debate. The moderators allowed J.D. to ask Feenstra one question, and it was a straightforward one:

How can you represent this district and the needs of our neighbors when you're taking money from the very entities hurting us?

Randy Feenstra has taken money from the managed care organizations that have run the privatized Medicaid system into the ground, forcing nursing homes and rural hospitals to cut staff and services while leaving taxpayers on the hook to bail out the corporations in charge. He takes money from Big Pharma, despite the fact that families must ration medication or go without it altogether because of the astronomical cost. And he's taken money from two Chinese-owned corporations that are squeezing farmers on the input side and market side.

The short answer to J.D.'s question: he can't.

Our campaign is 100% people-powered. Corporations and entities that force our communities to struggle have no place on this team. That's why it's so important for you to step up and have J.D.'s back for the final end-of-month deadline -- can you pitch in $5 now to help hit our goal?

If you've saved your payment information with ActBlue Express, your donation will go through immediately:
Feenstra's actual response was to label all of our supporters (and I'm sorry to say, you're included, John): "coastal elites" and "liberals." But the truth is that we have more donations from Iowans than he does!

That kind of divisive, misleading rhetoric is all we can expect from Feenstra. That's the kind of leadership he wants to bring to Washington.

Watch the full exchange for yourself and chip in after to help J.D. beat him this Tuesday:
