I’m not afraid to speak up when I see something that is wrong and puts our children at risk. That’s why I’ve been vocal about the dangers that Republican governors like Ron DeSantis and Larry Hogan have put students, teachers, and their families in by not mandating masks in public schools. Fortunately, our state board in Maryland is stepping in where the governor has failed to lead.

Governors should never choose politics over people. They should never place personal advantage over the public good. When I’m elected governor of Maryland, I will always fight to keep our communities safe — in our states’ schools and beyond.

But to win this race, I need your support. Will you chip in to my campaign before the August end-of-month deadline? We only have until tomorrow at midnight.

After eight years of Republican leadership, Maryland is the most flippable governor’s race in the country. We don’t need to uphold the status quo, we need serious progress that leads to a more just, more prosperous future in our state.

As governor, I won’t be afraid to think big and work to make Maryland a national leader on the issues that matter. Maryland deserves a governor who puts the people first, and I will be that governor.

So please, stand with me as we approach this crucial end-of-month deadline. Will you contribute $5, $25, or whatever you can to support my campaign?

I am grateful for your support,

John B. King Jr.
