John,

In a moment, I will ask you to pitch in $20.22 ahead of Thursday’s final quarterly FEC deadline before the primary. But first, I want to explain to you why it’s so important that we defeat Elise Stefanik.

Stefanik continues to be an embarrassment and threat to our community and our country. Since our last FEC deadline:

• Stefanik was called out for pushing the same racist conspiracy theories that inspired the white supremacist Buffalo shooter—and then doubled down.


• Stefanik declared herself proud to be “ultra-MAGA” and hosted another event with Trump that raised over $1 million in their effort to flip the House red.


• Stefanik has been the face of the Trump defense on Fox News during the January 6 Committee hearings and has spread the same Big Lie that incited the deadly insurrection.


• Stefanik endorsed Carl Paladino for Congress after he said that Hitler is “the kind of leader we need today” and “somebody inspirational.”


• Stefanik celebrated the Supreme Court ruling to overturn Roe v. Wade and committed to taking further actions to limit abortions if Republicans take back the House.

There’s so much at stake this election, and we must defeat Stefanik to restore honorable leadership to Upstate New York. That is why I’m asking you to please pitch in $20.22 or more to my campaign before Thursday’s FEC deadline.

I am so grateful for your support,

Matt
