Hi John,

We’re hours away from our campaign’s May end-of-month fundraising goal, and I wanted to ask if you could make a contribution to our campaign right now.

You know me as someone who tells it like it is, so I want to be honest with you right now. This deadline is really important when it comes to how much we can afford to spend on protecting my seat in 2022.

This year has been a whirlwind, and our campaign’s been hit with quite the news. The GOP has begun to mobilize their resources and donors towards targeting me for 2022. This seat is vulnerable, so we need to build a strong financial base to prepare to compete with the GOP and anyone else who might be coming after us.

That’s why it’s crucial we raise $125,000 over email by 11:59 pm PT tonight. If we fall short, it’ll stop us from being able to make some key investments in advertising, voter outreach, and more during a time when our momentum can’t slow down.

The GOP will continue to pour money and resources into unseating me no matter what; their attacks aren’t going to slow down just because our fundraising does. So we need to be ready, John. Can you please pitch in $3 or anything you can before tonight’s midnight deadline?

If you've stored your info with ActBlue Express, we'll process your contribution instantly:

Donate $15 ››› Donate $25 ››› Donate $50 ››› Donate $100 ››› Donate $250 ››› Other amount ›››

Even though I’m from a vulnerable district, and even though the GOP is preparing to pour large sums of money into the next race to defeat me, I refuse to take campaign contributions from lobbyists or corporate PACs—and I don't take money from executives at Big Oil companies or Wall Street banks.

Does that make fundraising a bit more challenging? It certainly does. But I don't fight on behalf of special interests or corporations, and their large contributions won't ever influence me. I work for the American people, and therefore my campaign runs on the power of the small-dollar, grassroots donations we receive each day.

John, we need to secure the resources to stay competitive in our race and keep this seat blue now—and I’m counting on your support to do it. If you're able, please pitch in $3 or anything you can tonight.

Thanks for everything,

Katie
