We need to be ready to respond

  Team — We set an ambitious $10,000 end-of-month fundraising goal for May. Now that Republicans have started running attack ads against Pat, we need to ramp up our defenses in preparation for what’s to come. We need to be ready to respond to the next wave of GOP attacks on Pat’s r…

The attack ads are starting

  Hey team — The National Republican Congressional Committee (NRCC), the House GOP’s main fundraising arm, has started running attack ads lying about Pat’s record. Can you rush in $10 or any amount so we can respond to these attacks and get ready to be on defense? If you've saved …

Why I want to hear from you:

  I believe that the most fundamental responsibility of a Representative is to listen. That’s why we send these surveys from time to time, so we can make sure my team is doing all that we can to advocate for your needs. My role in Congress is to fight for the issues that matter to y…

May 16

  Team — One year ago today, I announced that I was running to represent the Hudson Valley in Congress in a special election. In the last year, I’m unbelievably proud of what we’ve accomplished. We won not one but two incredibly competitive elections back to back that few thought we…

Republican fundraising machine

  What do you get when Marjorie Taylor Greene and Elise Stefanik support your campaign? Big fundraising checks. Yes, folks, both Elise Stefanik and Marjorie Taylor Greene have used their massive fundraising operations to support Republican incumbents and challengers across the coun…

Staying on track

  Team — Monday marks the halfway point of our fundraising quarter, and to be honest, we’re about $5,000 short of where we need to be. Both national Democrats and Republicans have named New York as the battleground for control of the House majority. Republican groups are preparing …

Santos and Stefanik

  Team — This week, George Santos was charged with 13 counts, including wire fraud, money laundering, and lying on statements to the House of Representatives. He is a disgrace to our democracy. But because he is vital to Kevin McCarthy and Elise Stefanik’s Republican majority, they…

NY-03, George Santos, take back the House

  George Santos was arrested on federal criminal charges this week — and he's still running for re-election, fundraising off of his indictment. Friend: I could spend the next hour of your time listing all the reasons why George Santos is entirely unqualified to hold public office. I…

Breaking news about George Santos

We need to defeat Santos once and for all.   Team — For months, I’ve been calling out George Santos for his egregious lies, nazi sympathies, and dubious behavior. And today, the Department of Justice filed criminal charges against him. I’m happy to see some truth and accountability…

Elise Stefanik is going after Pat’s seat

To respond to Elise Stefanik’s massive fundraising haul, we need to ramp up our grassroots operation.   Team — NY Republicans are already building up their efforts to hold onto their toss-up seats across the state — and no one is doing more to support them than Elise Stefanik. She …

A monthly ask

When you make a recurring gift, our team can count on reaching a specific fundraising goal each month, which means we can budget accordingly.   Team — Today, we’re hoping you will start a $5 monthly recurring contribution to Pat’s campaign for every month between now and the electio…

My friend Pat Ryan

I’m proud to serve alongside Pat in Congress.   Hi friend, Dan Goldman here — Pat asked me to reach out to you today. If there’s anything I know about Pat, it’s that he doesn’t back down from tough fights. He showed that determination when he proved pundits wrong and won a race tha…

Thank you

  Team — I wanted to send a quick note to say thank you for all your help in April. My finance team let me know that we met our online fundraising goal thanks to your support — I really appreciate it. We’re just a few months into 2023, but I’m already proud of what we’ve been able t…

Can you help us close the gap?

  Team — It’s Sunday night, so we’re going to keep this really quick: With just a few hours left until our end-of-month deadline, can you chip in $5 or any amount today to help us reach our online fundraising goal for April? Anything you contribute now, especially this early in the…

Can't slow down

  Hi there — Last quarter, Pat knocked campaign fundraising out of the park. But that doesn’t mean we can afford to slow down — in fact, it means the opposite. Now that Republicans know the amount of support Pat has earned over the last few months, they’re going to ramp up their fu…

3 things to know

From my desk to your inbox

The latest edition of our campaign newsletter.

Wade. I fought to defend …

Access to clean air and water is a right

  Team — Pat knows that freedom includes every American’s right to breathe clean air and drink clean water, which is why he stands firmly against any efforts to deregulate contaminants in the Hudson River and other water sources or dump toxic waste into this vital waterway. In just…

We can’t leave these freedoms in the hands of far-right judges

  Hi team — Yesterday, the U.S. Supreme Court extended the stay on the abortion pill case out of Texas. What that means for right now is that people will continue to have access to the FDA-approved medication mifepristone. But I’m not just thinking about this immediate, temporary wi…

Bring it on

  Why New York Is the Center of the 2024 Fight for House Control — Time Magazine Team — Last year, Pat was the only Democrat in New York to win a toss-up congressional race. And now? GOP leadership is looking at his seat as a top pick-up opportunity as they desperately try to hold …

George Santos is running for reelection

  Team — George Santos is a liar, a fraud, and an insult to our democracy. And yesterday, he announced he is running for re-election. It’s ridiculous that George Santos continues to serve in Congress, receiving a paycheck and accessing our nation’s top-secret information. He doesn’…

Since we emailed on Monday...

  Team — Since we sent this email on Monday, a federal appeals court rolled back FDA approval on abortion medication, and Florida passed one of the most restrictive abortion bans nationwide. We can’t wait — we need to protect reproductive freedoms NOW. Sign on in support …

Watch this

  It’s clear: The far-right is hell-bent on taking away reproductive freedoms. The American people want to protect these rights — just take a look at election results in the Kansas referendum last year, the judicial race in Wisconsin last week, and Pat’s special election victory. W…

Choice is still on the ballot

The GOP will stop at nothing to strip women of their reproductive freedoms.   Last year, we said choice is on the ballot — but truthfully, it’s on the ballot every year. The GOP will stop at nothing to control women’s bodies. From bounties on the heads of Texas women to threats of …

My bill to protect access to abortion medication

  On Friday, a Texas judge overturned the 23-year Food and Drug Administration approval of Mifepristone, commonly known as the abortion pill. I probably don’t have to tell anyone reading this email how monumental a blow this decision could ultimately be to the reproductive freedom o…

Protecting Reproductive Freedom Act

A real sense of urgency

It's only a matter of time

$6 million

  Folks, today we’re asking you to pitch in $6 to Pat’s campaign for Congress. Why $6? Because last year, Republican PACs and dark money donors spent nearly $6 million to defeat Pat. This time around, we can expect millions more in outside spending pouring into the district to flip…

Some facts

Dark money donors

  Team — One thing we can count on in this election? Republicans will be spending big to defeat Pat. Last year, Kevin McCarthy’s Super PAC, GOP-aligned groups, and their deep-pocketed friends spent nearly $6,000,000 to attack Pat and support their candidate of choice. Now, Republic…

George Santos...

Early money

  When we say early money in a campaign can be a difference-maker, we mean it, team. Because Pat’s district is in New York, the cost of running TV ads in our area is expensive. And the sooner we can make ad buys, the better the rate we can get — and the less competition we’ll face …
