Here’s how we fight back

  JOHN, Here’s the situation: MAGA extremist John James is doing what his wing of the party does best: fighting culture wars to divide America. Here’s the problem: James keeps fundraising off of his party’s lies. Just this year alone, he’s raised $2.4 million. We need to make up gr…

John James' anti-choice agenda is out of touch with Michiganders

  "Genocide." That’s what John James called abortions in America. John James consistently opposed abortion even in cases of rape and incest. These extremist views are out of touch with what folks here in MI-10 believe. We can’t have someone like John James in office who’s hellbent …

$10 for MI-10

  JOHN, I’m running for Congress in Michigan’s 10th district so I thought it would be a good idea to ask you for exactly $10. And, YES, this is 100% a fundraising gimmick, but here’s why I need your support now: My opponent John James has raised a whopping $2.4 million in 2023 alo…

JOHN, We’ve set an ambitious goal of raising $10,000 before tonight’s mid-month fundraising deadline. Unlike my MAGA extremist opponent who’s backed by GOP mega-donors, this is a grassroots campaign. That means I’m counting on folks like you to chip in what they can if we’re going to reach it. We…
