Folks, we missed our end-of-month goal.

There’s no way to sugarcoat this because it’s a big setback for our campaign as we head into March. And to make matters worse, March is the last month of our quarterly fundraising period.

If we want any chance of hitting projections throughout March, we first need to close the books from February and get out of the red.

We missed our goal by $1,936 – an amount that we can make up right now if every person reading this chipped in $12. Will you please take a moment and contribute to our effort?

Writing emails like this is one of my least favorite things to do. But I’ve learned that running a campaign as important as ours isn’t always sunshine and roses.

We’re on a mission to keep the only Democratic district in deep-red Alabama in a cycle where the GOP is expected to double down on their efforts to unseat me.

Every dollar raised matters when it comes to showing Republican leadership that AL-07 isn’t theirs for the taking. That’s why when we miss fundraising goals like this, it’s crucial that we reconcile it immediately.

I know we can make up this deficit with your help. Can you chip in $10, $25, or more to raise what we need to close the gap from February and start March off in a stronger position?

I’m immensely grateful for your support.
