It's so important that we work twice as hard to send Summer to Congress.
John, we all know running for Congress is expensive.
But here's something that may come as a surprise: Special interest groups and Republican mega-donors are spending historic amounts of money to sway elections in their favor.
In Summer's primary election, outside groups spent $4.5 million on attack ads spreading racist and sexist misinformation on the air and by mail. This is dangerous, John, and it allows our democracy to be sold to the highest bidder.
On Team Summer, we believe limitless corporate and dark money in elections is antithetical to building a truly reflective democracy. That's why Summer decided on day one of this campaign to run a 100% people-powered race without a cent from corporate PACs.
But that means it's grassroots donations that enable us to go up against special interests, so we have to ask: John, will you chip in $5 or more right now to help us combat huge spending by outside groups and elect Summer on November 8?

When politics is ruled by money, the wealthy control our politicians and our policies — at the expense of working families.
The truth is our political system sets working-class candidates who don't have a rolodex of corporate donors or billionaire friends — like Summer — up to fail. That's why it's so important that we work twice as hard to send Summer to Congress.
Outside groups came after us in the primary, so we need our grassroots donors to step up and help ensure we have the resources to win our general election. So, John, can we count on you for a donation today?
Thank you,
Team Summer
