Team,

As a cadet at West Point, I learned and lived by the West Point motto: Duty, Honor, Country.

Unfortunately, too many of our politicians don’t live by that motto. I’m running for Congress because we need more leaders in Washington who want to serve our country, not their own self-interests.

Every day, I am inspired by the people I meet on the campaign trail. The small business owners creating jobs in our communities. The parents choosing to raise their children in our district and send them to schools in our area. The first responders keeping us safe. The union workers making our district run.

All of these folks deserve a representative in Congress who will serve them with Duty, Honor, and Country in mind.

Serving with the duty to deliver effective results by passing meaningful legislation.

Serving with the honor to respect my position and use it to advance worthwhile causes, not special interests or big corporations.

Serving with our country in mind by fighting to protect our rights and our freedoms.

I’m excited to represent the great people of my district with the values and lessons I learned at West Point – but to make that happen, I have to ask: Could you pitch in a few dollars to my campaign before our final fundraising deadline for this special election? Any little bit helps.

I am excited by the hard work we have ahead of us, and I’m more motivated than ever because I know I have you on my side.

Yours in service,
Pat
