HiJohn,

There's so much that I'm thankful for this holiday season, and I'm sending this note to let you know that I'm especially thankful for YOU. Although we came up just two points short in our campaign for Congress, I'm really proud of what we accomplished together:

✅ We had more volunteer shifts than any Democratic challenger campaign in the country during GOTV weekend, and we turned out a higher percentage of Democrats than any Democratic congressional campaign in New York.

✅ We raised more money than any Democratic House candidate in New York after the August 23 election--and we did it with 90% of our contributions at $100 or less and not a single penny from corporate PACs.

✅ We met thousands of voters at hundreds of events across twenty counties from the Finger Lakes to the Hudson Valley, from the Southern Tier to the Mohawk Valley, and everywhere in between.

✅ We offered a bold and optimistic message focused on strengthening the Middle Class and protecting our Democracy--and we did it even in the face of over $6 million in shamefully deceitful Super PAC ads against us.

While I'm (very!) disappointed that we lost, I'm not discouraged from public service--and I hope you're not either. There's just too much work to be done, especially here in New York, which is the path to taking back the House majority in 2024.

But first... let's rest, recover, and enjoy the holidays with loved ones. As you do, please know that I am forever grateful for your support.

From my family to yours: HAPPY HOLIDAYS.
