Fellow Conservative,

I had just finished serving our great nation in Afghanistan when I decided to take a vacation with my two childhood friends in Europe during 2015. We were traveling on a Paris-bound train when a terrorist armed with a gun, a jar of gasoline, and 270 rounds of ammunition attempted to take over our train.

As a soldier, I was trained to take out a terrorist threat - As an American, I was taught to stand up for freedom no matter where I was in the world. Which is why I, my friends and other brave travelers took the action needed to stop this terrorist.

For this, the President awarded me the United States Army's Soldier's Medal, and the events of that fateful day were later retold in the film The 15:17 to Paris, directed by Clint Eastwood.

But I didn’t do what I did to receive recognition – I did it out of duty. And now, duty is calling me again.

My name is Alek Skarlatos, I am a former National Guardsman, an American Patriot, a proud Republican and I am running for Congress in Oregon’s 4th District.

I have seen the dangers of this world, and I have stood up for freedom in the face of terrorism. I know the strength it takes to stand up and fight for what is right - which is why I want to take on the anti-American, radical-Left in Washington.

Will you lend your support to my fight by chipping in $10, $25, $50 or another amount today?



For the first time since 1986, there is no incumbent running for election in this coastal district, giving Republicans a REAL opportunity to pick up this seat and put it in our column, flipping the House majority in the process.

I am committed to restoring conservative leadership to this district. Southern Oregon’s economy has wasted away due to the Leftist control of the longtime incumbent and his radical-Left allies.

I am running for Congress to represent the loggers, veterans, moms, dads and families that hold the American dream dear. The constituents of Oregon’s 4th district are hard-workers who have fought to make ends-meet under the Leftist leadership that has only hindered them.

My life’s mission has always been to represent the America I know and love - the world’s bastion of freedom and economic prosperity. I am taking that mission and putting it into action by running for Congress, by fighting for my neighbors and their wellbeing in Washington.

This will not be an easy road, which is why I am reaching out to you. I will need the financial support of every American patriot; every single dollar will help. Can I count on you to join my team with a donation of $10, $20 or even $50 today?


Thank you,
Alek for Oregon
