John, I took a break from my family vacation this week to help out my dear friend and brother, Lee Merritt, with the launch of his campaign for Attorney General of Texas.

Before I head back offline to spend the rest of July with family, I wanted to thank you. Because the response from our national community was nothing short of incredible.

I saw thousands of posts and comments on my pages about Lee. My DMs were absolutely FLOODED with support. And across all our channels, we raised nearly $80,000 from more than 2,600 donors.

So again, THANK YOU. Lee is a peer hero of mine, and the support you all have shown him is going to help him take on the supervillain Ken Paxton.

Now I have one more favor to ask: since we shuffled around a lot of resources to help Lee this week, our own fundraising has fallen behind.

So if you can, please donate $3 today to get our fundraising back on track. You showed up for Lee in a HUGE way, and I need to ask you to show up for us this month too. I’d appreciate it a lot, John.

Donate $5

Our team has a lot of important projects going on — from the ongoing campaign to Free Rodney Reed to winning critical Alternative Crisis Response programs in cities across America.

It’s hard to juggle all these projects AND keep them well-funded, especially as a grassroots-funded campaign. But you’ve always stepped up when we needed it most — just like you stepped up for Lee.

Appreciate you,

Shaun
