John,

This past weekend marked the twelfth anniversary of the Supreme Court's Citizens United ruling – which allowed unlimited dark money into our elections and has caused irreparable damage to our democracy.

Fighting back against the impact of Citizens United starts with electing (and re-electing) public officials who fund their campaigns in a way that reflects the voices of the people they represent. That's why I haven't taken a single dollar of corporate PAC money in my runs for Congress.

I'm working every day to reign in corporate interests and build an equitable economy. And I'm relying heavily on grassroots supporters like you to help me carry on the fight. Will you chip in $12 (or more, if you want) to keep our re-election campaign going strong? We're six days away from our first monthly deadline of the year, and every contribution makes a difference.

I don't take corporate PAC money because principle matters more than easy dollars. IL-06 deserves a campaign that's by and for the people.

When we win by running grassroots-powered campaigns, we send a powerful message that special interests don't have to dictate our democracy.

So I hope to have your support for this campaign. Please donate $12 or more today >>

Thank you,

Marie
