John,

Exactly six months from today, Americans will go to the polls. The results will determine whether we have a Congress that protects the right to choose, upholds the tenets of our democracy, and will invest in working families.

If the Republicans targeting VA-10 get their way, the next Congress will do none of these things.

We cannot hold the House if the GOP defeats incumbents like me. So I'm asking you to commit to fighting for our values by donating $6 to help us win in six months.

If you believe all Americans should have the same rights and opportunities, no matter their faith, ethnicity, and sexual orientation, I need you with me. If you're sick and tired of the efforts to restrict women's reproductive healthcare, I need you with me.

If you want to see voting rights protected, and real action to protect communities from gun violence, I need you with me. And if you believe the next generation should have a chance to live on a clean Earth, I need you with me.

There is so much at stake in six months, and we cannot take anything for granted. All of us can make a difference between now and Election Day. Even just $6 will help us build our path to victory.

Thank you so much,

Jennifer

P.S. On this Mother's Day, I want to express my undying admiration and gratitude for our determined and hard-working mothers across the country! I'm thinking of my own mother, Paula, who developed an ethics program to reform Wall Street in 1987 to demand change and financial stability for all Americans nationwide. I am so incredibly thankful to have been raised by a strong woman who taught me how to stand up for what is right, and I am proud to pass on her lessons to my own children.
