John,

Asking for money is my least favorite part of running for office, but our campaign is in a pivotal moment.

Pundits have labeled VA-02 as one of the top eight most competitive districts in the country -- and my first Republican opponent just announced his campaign to flip this district red in 2020.

National Republicans have already poured hundreds of thousands of dollars into defeating me and we have a tough road ahead of us to hold this seat.

So we're taking this challenge head on by setting a $20,000 grassroots donation goal. If you're with me in this fight, please chip in now to help protect this seat. All donations before midnight will be MATCHED >>

When I ran to represent this district last year, political experts thought I would lose. Instead, we came together, organized from sun up to sun down, and built a movement that flipped this Trump district by 2.3 points.

I'm ready to fight for this district again, but I can't do it without your help.

With my first opponent in the race and less than a year to go before Election Day, I'm asking our strongest supporters to step up and make a MATCHED donation before midnight to reach our $20,000 goal. Are you with me, John? >>

Let's Do Good Work,
