Stakes

Hi John, Multiple outlets are now calling our race a tossup. In Congress, Kirsten will fight to lower the cost of living, pass common-sense gun safety laws, protect Arizona’s water security, invest in good-paying jobs, and defend reproductive rights.  In Congress, her opponent has slashed clean ener…

This changes everything

It’s been a big week, John.  On Wednesday, End Citizens United put Juan Ciscomani on their list of the Most Corrupt members of Congress — thanks to the hundreds of thousands of dollars he accepts from corporate donors and the millions of dollars poured into this district by his dark money super PACs…

John, End Citizens United just announced their list of Congress’s Most Corrupt Members — and Juan Ciscomani is at the top. Running against Ciscomani means taking on the super PACs and corporations who back him. We’ll need your grassroots support to flip this seat blue in November. With just a week l…
