Hi there, friend.
This is Emily -- Eric's Finance Director.
I was looking through our opponent’s finance reports, and a few names caught my eye that I thought might interest you. Here are a few of the GOP mega-donors funding Esther King's campaign:
- Larry Anderson - a local businessman best-known for stealing nearly $20,000 from his own workers.
- Dick Uihlein - He’s Illinois' biggest GOP donor. He helped bankroll Donald Trump's first presidential run.
- Kevin McCarthy - McCarthy’s “Take Back The House 2022” PAC has dumped tens of thousands of dollars into King’s campaign account.
When you follow the money, it's pretty easy to see why Esther King backs extreme policies like gutting Medicare and Social Security and raising taxes on the middle class. Meanwhile, our campaign is depending on lots of contributions from individual like you -- which is why I'm reaching out today:
Tomorrow at midnight marks the middle of our current fundraising quarter, and we need to bring in another $12,000 to stay on track and hit our goal. Can you chip in $5 before this mid-quarter deadline hits?
If you've saved your payment information with ActBlue Express, your donation will go through immediately:
We’ll never ask for massive checks, but if everyone reading this email can chip in $5, we can close the gap on these megadonors and send a message that this district is not for sale.
We appreciate anything you can give.
Emily Williams
Finance Director
