Hi John,

Sorry to email on a Saturday, but I wanted to check in before our major filing deadline tonight. All Iowa candidates are required to report their fundraising numbers, and you can bet Republicans across the state will be looking closely for any signs of weakness in our Democratic campaigns. We can’t let them find any.

That’s why I’m asking you to chip in to my re-election campaign today. Anything you can spare will ensure I have the resources to stay in the Iowa Senate advocating for our families and workers on the issues that matter most. Can I count on you to invest $5 or more right away?

I’m not only coming to you today asking for support for my re-election campaign; I’m asking for your help for a pretty big promotion. I need your support to change my job title from Minority Leader to Majority Leader.

As the Senate Minority Leader, I raise funds to support Democratic candidates in competitive races across Iowa. When you support my campaign, you’re also supporting Democratic candidates in every district across the state who are taking on radical Republicans.

If you are able, please rush a contribution of $10, $20, or whatever you can spare to support Iowa Democrats before the crucial fundraising deadline.

Grateful for your support,
Sen. Zach Wahls
