Dear Friend,
This morning, House Democrats will vote on a partisan basis to impeach President Trump. This unfortunate vote concludes three years of a witch-hunt against the President. Let’s not forget, Speaker Pelosi and Democrats, including Charlie Crist, were intent on impeaching President Trump before he was even sworn into office. Now, more than ever, it is critical that we return bold and effective conservative leadership to Pinellas County and restore Republican control to the House of Representatives.
I want to thank you for your support for our campaign to defeat Charlie Crist. With your support, we have outraised my four primary opponents 4:1 because of your generosity and commitment to helping me take back this seat. (See our press release on Q3 numbers here)
This impeachment represents an unconstitutional abuse of power by the Democratic Party, but the good news is we DO have a say in this matter. With a Republican controlled Congress, we can get back to doing the business of our great nation. The path to a Republican majority runs right here, through Florida’s 13th district! With your continued financial support, we fully intend to return this seat back to Republican control as it was for 45 years, from 1971 through 2016.
As the quarter ends on 12/31, I am asking for your contribution to help us reach our fundraising goal for 2019. Thank you so much for your help of $100, $250, $500, $2,800 or …$5,600?
Below are just some of the headlines, endorsements and other progress we’ve made since we kicked things off.
Amanda in the News: We have achieved great headlines since the start of our campaign in June, including:
- “Five new GOP Women to Watch in 2020” from the Washington Examiner;
- “Amanda Makki Could Pose Serious Threat to Charlie Crist” from The Floridian,
- “Democrat Charlie Crist, a onetime GOP governor of Florida, faces a serious challenge from Republican Amanda Makki, who has raised an impressive $418,000 since announcing her campaign in June.” from Roll Call
- Please watch my interview with One America News Network on President Trump, the threat of Iran and the Democrats pushing forward with Impeachment.
Endorsements:
- We have over a dozen current Members of Congress and the U.S. Senate who have either formally endorsed or have financially invested in our campaign.
- We have the endorsement of NY GOP Congresswoman Elise Stefanik, who has been tasked by the GOP to select the top 11 GOP female candidates nationwide (out of 170) and has provided each of our campaigns with $10,000 in funding!
- We have the designation of the NRCC Young Guns “On the Radar” – 43 GOP candidates selected by the Republican Leader Kevin McCarthy for achieving metrics to be top frontrunner candidates nationwide
- You can find our full list of endorsements here.
WHY WE CAN WIN!
- Florida’s best political team is advising our campaign, the same team who helped Pam Bondi and Ashley Moody get elected Attorneys General for the state of Florida. (Ashley Moody, also a female attorney, won this district by 4 percent!)
- President Trump’s Pollsters, McLaughlin & Associates, are also polling for us, and believe that my profile can only beat Charlie Crist.
- As a Christian and a female born in the Middle East, I can give Republicans their own proverbial ‘counter-punch’ to socialist, anti-Israel members in Congress like AOC, Rashida Talib and Ilhan Omar without ever letting them play the victim card like they do with President Trump!
In order to keep my frontrunner status, I would greatly appreciate any support you can provide before the end of this month so we can reach our end-of-year goal. You can make an online contribution here or via check to the address below.
By law, the maximum contribution for a couple is $11,200, and $5,600 per individual. The 2020 Primary Election and 2020 General Election, is $2,800 for each, totaling $5,600 per individual and $11,200 per couple. Contributions from corporations, labor unions, foreign nationals (without “green cards”) and federal government contractors are prohibited. Contributions to Amanda Makki for Congress are not tax deductible.
Please help me achieve another strong quarter and reach my fundraising goal for 2019 by making a contribution today!
I hope you and your family have a blessed Christmas and a happy Hanukkah! I look forward to hearing from you!
Gratefully,
