I need $20.20 now

  Hi Friends,  Thanks to supporters like you, our campaign has come a long way. But I’m going to be honest.  A look at our donation totals so far for this quarter scared me.  There is a chance we won't meet our goal, which means we risk not having the resou…

Let's STOP online harassment!

  Hi Friends,  I'm proud to have been featured in a New York Times retrospective on the last decade in tech, and wanted to make sure you saw it.  I know all too well the terrible impacts of online harassment.  See part of my comments in this screenshot: Wi…

Trump's Space Force is PROGRESSIVE???

  Hi Friends,  I know everyone's talking about impeachment, so here's some news you may have missed. The House passed the biggest war budget in history, and my opponent - Stephen Lynch - voted for it.  $738 Billion.  Yep, you read that right.  It includes T…

IMPORTANT! - Fwd: DESTROYED by party insiders!

  Hi Friends,  Paul here - Brianna's campaign manager. I'll be quick - I needed to make sure you saw this email.  The establishment Democrats are targeting Brianna and other progressive candidates like her.  Bottom line - Brianna needs your help now. Please…

DESTROYED by party insiders!

  Friends,  The establishment fueled Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee is actively working to take us down. This is what I and other progressive candidates are up against, at the hands of our own party. That's why I need you to support me with a d…

I need your help NOW

    Hey Friends,  FINALLY, the House is drafting articles of impeachment against Trump. But why did the Democratic leadership wait so long? Because they put politics over the rule of law, until they had no choice.  And my opponent, Stephen Lynch, falls in lo…

Cheating the cold!

    Hey Friends,  I'm going to have some fun campaign updates and a favor to ask. I hope you all had an AMAZING Thanksgiving!  I snuck over to Connecticut to visit my father-in-law, and stopped by the Baseball Hall of Fame on my way home.  I am refreshed and…

Possibly too personal

    Hey Friends,  Bri here. This is not going to be a normal politician holiday email.  It's possibly too personal, but since you're supporting me - I want you to know who I am and why I'm running for office. The holidays are incredibly emotionally difficult…

We will fail without you

    Hey Friends,  I'll get right to the point. The holiday season is a very tough time for political campaigns.  Work goes on, but financial support dries up.  That's why I've got to ask you to send a donation today, before things get heated. We need to grow…

Lynch Chairmanship: TERMINATED

    Hey Friends,  Brianna here. Lynch thought he could get away with it.  He didn’t.  YOU helped stop him.  When Stephen Lynch made a power grab for chairman of the House Oversight Committee, he didn’t think his YEARS of cowering to Donald Trump would matter…

Take a stand against the status-quo!

    Friends,  I'm glad to see the impeachment proceedings finally begin.  It took long enough. One of the reasons for the delay was my opponent, Stephen Lynch.  He said that impeachment would just be "blowing off steam."  He put politics over the rule of law…

Show your support for Medicare For All

  Hey there, To me, it's very clear.  Medicare For All is the right way to cover everyone, control healthcare costs, and make sure no one faces medical bankruptcy or dies from having to ration medication. To get there, we need to elect Democrats who suppo…

We MUST secure our electronic infrastructure

$8,440 by TOMORROW NIGHT!

  Friends, We have $8,440 left to get to our goal by tomorrow night's deadline. Unlike my opponent, corporate-owned conservative Democrat Stephen Lynch, I don't accept corporate PAC money.  Over half of Lynch's donations come from PACs.  $8,440 is nothing to…
