John,
Sometimes it hits me just how high the stakes of this race are.
We’ve run and won plenty of impactful campaigns, but this time around, the national implications of this race are huge -- and people are taking notice.
The GOP just needs five seats to flip the House red, and I’m one of just five Democrats running for re-election in congressional districts Trump won in 2020.
The Cook Political Report found me to be the second most vulnerable of all the House Democrats. Accordingly, Kevin McCarthy’s political machine has labeled me their number two target.

We get to decide right here in PA-08 whether the country reverts back to Trumpism or stays on the steady path forward.
I believe in the work we’re doing in the House of Representatives: fighting the pandemic, revitalizing our infrastructure, protecting fundamental rights, and more. These are issues that matter here in Northeastern Pennsylvania and communities across the country. McCarthy has publicly stated he will reverse all of this progress.
John, can you chip in what you can ahead of my all-important end-of-quarter public finance deadline? We need to show the GOP that we have the strength and grassroots support necessary to fight against their dark money. [[link removed]]
