I grew up in public housing, raised by a single mother who made minimum wage — people like me don’t usually end up in Congress.
The connections and powerful corporate donors many of my colleagues rely on weren’t available to me.
And even if they were, I wouldn’t want them.
With our campaign being funded by grassroots supporters like you, I am only beholden to the people of this nation — which means I get to wholeheartedly focus on this nation.
That’s why this fight is so personal to me, John. NY-15 deserves a representative that has no qualms about pushing for what’s right.
But as we approach the final months before the election, we aren’t on track to hit our $20,000 goal.
I know you know how important these goals are, John. If we fail to hit even one, it could set us back months in terms of reaching voters.
