John,

It's been a busy start to the 1st month of the new year for Team Hahn, and things will only continue to pick up from here.

At Team Hahn, we're working on expanding our outreach, building on our past success, and engaging new voters. That's how we'll win and flip New York's District 1st blue.

But since you're such a big part of this movement, I want to thank you and everyone who has supported Kara, including those who have joined us in this new year.
 
Here are some things you may have missed this month, John⬇⬇

First, let me start by introducing you all to one of our newest additions to Team Hahn: Our Finance Director Zach Shenkman! Since coming onboard, Zach has been pivotal in helping our team reach our fundraising goals and keeping our momentum going.
 
Here's where we're at for the month
Fundraising Thermometer: End-of-month goal $30,000 currently $15,155 raised

We're doing well, but Zach has let me know we're running a bit behind this month. We've still got 6 days to close this gap, but that's always easier said than done. If you can, please chip in $5 or anything you can; it'll help us on our way to flipping New York's District 1st blue.

Kara on Social Media:

On January 6th, we remembered the fallen officers who lost their lives to defend our capital from the insurrectionists due to the former President and his enablers, including Congressman Lee Zeldin, who continues to fan the flames of insurrection.
 
Pictured: Kara Hahn Facebook post: A year ago today, our country saw the deadly consequences of elected officials who spread disinformation, sow division and hate, and weaken our democracy. We saw the United States Capitol desecrated and police officers assaulted and killed while the defeated former President and his enablers, including Congressman Lee Zeldin, fanned the flames.
      As a public servant, mother and proud American, I look back on that day with profound sadness. As the daughter and granddaughter of proud veterans, public servants and true patriots, it shook me to my core and made me think hard about what I could do to better our politics. Even after the mob stormed the Capitol, Lee Zeldin refused to accept and certify the 2020 election results. In the year since, he has made no attempt to heal our nation, nor try to build a country we all know is possible. Instead, he shamefully voted against the bipartisan commission to investigate the January 6th attack and continues to defend the insurrection. Our community deserves the kind of patriotic leadership that Lee Zeldin has never provided as New York's 1st District's representative.
      I'm running for Congress because we deserve leaders in Washington who care more about protecting our democracy and serving the people than maintaining power at all costs.

On January 12th, we officially received the endorsement of over 50 Brookhaven Town Democratic Committee members.

Kara in the News:
 
TBR NEWSMEDIA: County legislature approves access to fentanyl test strips
"Opioids kill, that is why I pushed for the county to become certified to provide naloxone trainings that put this life-saving antidote in more hands; fentanyl kills, that is why I am pushing for increased access to test strips, which will give this life-saving tool greater reach,” Hahn said. “Allowing users the ability to know if they are about to put a drug in their body that also contains fentanyl will save lives and begin to reduce the increasing overdose deaths devastating our community."

In a statement, the Long Island Council on Alcoholism and Drug Dependence commended Hahn and the county government for addressing the realities of the dual pandemic of the opioid crisis, fueled by fear and anxieties of COVID-19."
