Hi John, it’s Congressman Jim Himes here from CT-04. I was hoping you'd let me tell you a bit about my colleague – and friend! – Joe Courtney. But before I get too far, I want to ask: Will you chip in $25 right now to Joe’s campaign to ensure he has the resources he will need to win?

Joe has faithfully served our state since the 1980s, first as a state representative and now as a member of Congress. From day one, he’s prioritized job growth and expanded economic opportunities for the communities in his district. His service on the House Armed Services Committee has been vital to strengthening our nation's defense and bringing jobs to Connecticut, and he continues to advocate on behalf of our veterans and brave service members.

Here’s what I know, John: We can’t afford to lose Joe in Congress. He’s a proven leader who never fails to put eastern Connecticut’s working families first.

But here’s what I also know: The GOP is doing everything they can to try and defeat Joe this November and elect an extreme conservative in his place.

Nationally, Republicans are committed to showing no mercy against frontline Democrats. That includes my friend Joe who represents my neighboring district. That’s why I hope you’ll join me in supporting Joe in his fight for re-election.

Will you rush a donation to Joe’s campaign today? Your contribution will help ensure that Joe’s team has the resources necessary to defeat the radical right and continue delivering for Connecticut.

Jim Himes
