Hi John, did you see this email from Jared?

Between being declared a Frontline race this week and being attacked by a Kevin McCarthy-backed dark money group on the airwaves, it’s clear that our people-powered team needs to kick into high gear.

That’s why we’re asking, John: Can you chip in today to help us start our 2024 campaign in the strongest position possible? We relied on supporters like you in 2022, and we know we’ll need your support again for 2024.

Hi there,

I wanted to take a moment to reflect on both the challenges we’ve overcome together and those that lie ahead, but first I’m coming to you humbly to ask you to chip in a few dollars to help us kick off our 2024 campaign.

Look, Maine has always been my home. I was born in Lewiston and grew up in Leeds mowing grass at my family’s business. I was a freshman at the University of Maine in Farmington when the twin towers fell on September 11th. I felt called to serve, so I joined the Marine Corps and served combat tours in Afghanistan and Iraq.

Military service shaped who I am, and I carry those values with me every day. I learned what it means to have someone’s back, and how it feels to know they have yours. I also learned to always work as part of a team to get the job done, because in a fight, the worst thing a person can do is to leave someone behind.

After returning home, what I saw from Washington was that more often than not, our representatives fought over petty differences that had little to do with the struggles that everyday folks like you and me face. Time and time again, I saw our small business owners, firefighters, teachers, loggers, fishermen, nurses, shipbuilders, and steelworkers being left behind – and I couldn’t sit idly by.

So in 2017, I decided to run for Congress.

From day one in Washington, I’ve fought for affordable health care, stood up to corporate greed, and never forgot my promise to have Mainers’ backs no matter what – and you’ve had my back, too.

I haven’t been perfect, but I’ve tried to deliver the kind of leadership Mainers tell me they want, and to show my understanding that now more than ever, people want elected officials to set aside their differences and stand together to face the serious challenges of our time. I’ll work with anyone – Democrat, Republican, or Independent – to get things done for Maine and for our country.

Since our historic victory in 2018, we’ve built a line of defense against corruption, corporate greed, and attacks on our health care. Now, if you’re able to, I need you to step up again – because whether it’s a woman’s right to make her own health care choices, collective bargaining rights, or the promise of Medicare and Social Security, so much is being attacked by Kevin McCarthy and his caucus.

Folks, I won’t sugarcoat it. Dark money groups with deep pockets have already begun to target this district, and election experts are saying our race will determine if Democrats are able to retake the House Majority. I’m committed to fighting for you in Congress, but I will need your help to protect this seat.

If you can, will you make a donation to our people-first, grassroots campaign today to help us kick off our 2024 campaign on the right foot?

I’ve worked hard to be your voice in Washington these past few years, and I would be honored to continue to be your representative.

Respectfully,

Jared
