John, you know me as someone who tells it like it is, so I want to be honest with you right now: This is a moment when your support is needed most—and I’m asking you to make a contribution to our campaign today. Here's why:
Tonight is one of the biggest fundraising deadlines of 2021. After June 30, our team will publish a public FEC report that shows how much support our campaign has received in the past three months.
And so far this year, John, our campaign has been hit with quite the news. The GOP has started mobilizing their resources and donors towards targeting me for 2022. My seat is vulnerable, so it is crucial that we hit this end-of-quarter fundraising goal by the deadline and publish a strong report to show them that we’re prepared to compete.
If you've stored your info with ActBlue Express, we'll process your contribution instantly:
Our campaign's next FEC report is an opportunity to show that this grassroots movement for working families can compete against the influential machine of lobbyists, special interests, and billionaire donors that the GOP is relying on.
Even though I’m from a vulnerable district, and even though the NRCC 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 decision 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.
Thanks for everything,
Katie
