Hello —

I’m short on time, so I’ll make this quick:

We’re days away from the special election to fill Secretary Deb Haaland’s congressional seat in New Mexico, and Democrats cannot afford to lose this seat if we’re going to hang on to our House majority.

My friend Melanie Stansbury has a real chance to win on Tuesday, but the Republicans are spending outrageous sums of money to attack her. She needs our help to fight back in these final days:

Rush an urgent contribution of any amount to Melanie’s campaign and our campaign to help Democrats keep NM-01 blue. Anything you can donate in these final days will make a huge difference:

If you've saved your payment information with ActBlue Express, your donation will be automatically processed and split between Melanie Stansbury and Ben Ray Luján:

We need someone like Melanie standing up for our values in Washington. That’s why I’m so honored to support her as she runs to fill this congressional seat, and I’m asking for your support to make sure she wins.

Thanks for stepping up.
