John,

In these final days before the primary, it's critical that we display our grassroots strength across the district. From Beverly to Orland Park to Elmhurst and everywhere in between, we’re getting the word out about this race.

One of the ways we do that is through yard signs. With just 11 days left in the race, thank you to all who have been sporting a yard sign – and there is still time to request one!

But some don't want a proudly progressive campaign like ours to prevail, and they're willing to resort to dirty tricks. Yesterday, we got word that some of our Republican opponents have been taking our yard signs and throwing them away.

We're not going to let this deter us. In fact, we're all the more encouraged that our message is breaking through — because it's making the other side afraid.

So we're going to double down on all of our field efforts for the next 11 days, including putting out more yard signs. Can you pitch in to help our team distribute yard signs and demonstrate the grassroots momentum that's driving our campaign? We have to raise another $1,817 today to stay on pace.

Thanks so much,

Marie
