Thanks for joining the team!

Dear John,   Thank you so much for joining our campaign newsletter. In 2018, we wanted to change the representation we had here in Central Virginia. We were driven by the hope that we could bring a voice to the issues that are important to us. Our entire team worked tirelessly to engage vote…

Abigail’s birthday Wednesday

John,  In just a few days, we’ll celebrate Abigail’s birthday! As always, our girls and I are making her favorite dinner and a cake, but this year is a big one for Abigail. She’s turning 40, and it would be awesome if we could get lots of signatures from her supporters. I’m planning to give he…

My sincere appreciation

John,  July is a notoriously difficult month for fundraising, and yet so many of you helped out. We surpassed our goal and each day we’re assembling the strongest campaign possible for 2020. We’re now entering the August district work period, and I’m traveling around Central Virginia hosting …

Our July goal

John, Today is the last day to reach our July fundraising goal. Abigail has been working around the clock, and Whitney and I have been looking at our spreadsheets each day to check where we are on our goal. As of right now, we’re now $4,767 away from reaching our July goal. I want us t…

The importance of our ongoing work

John,  We are nearly at the end of the month and we have an important fundraising goal for July. I’m going to ask you for a contribution, but first I want to tell you why. In 2018 when I won my race it was a moment of enormous gratitude and a feeling of enormous responsibility. We won that r…

John, have a minute?

John,  I’m writing today to ask if you would be willing to make a contribution to my re-election campaign. But before I ask for your help raising the last $12,202 we need to hit our July fundraising goal, I’d like to fill you in on just how far we’ve come. We don’t have to look too far back …

Foreign Interference in our elections

John, We know that in 2016 Russian agents acting on behalf of the Kremlin worked to influence our elections. They used a variety of channels, most notably, they fed Americans divisive ads via social media meant to exacerbate existing tensions in our country. This was by design. It was no…

why it's crucial

  John, Last week, my team reached out to you about making a donation to help us reach our fundraising goal. This is critical, so I’m taking a moment to personally ask if you can make a small donation of $10. Please consider making a contribution, then let me tell you why it’s crucial tha…

Fwd: what does it mean to be a “sustainer”

John Did you see the email from Whitney? I wouldn’t ask for your support at this moment if it wasn’t important. Our sustaining gifts give us greater planning capabilities and send a powerful message to our opponents who are amassing funds to defeat me. Thank you for considering our request!…

what does it mean to be a “sustainer”

Hi John As Abigail is holding town halls across every county in the 7th district and working hard on Capitol Hill, our campaign team is planning for 2020 each and every day. We’re outlining our outreach strategy, detailing our communications plan, and finalizing our campaign budget for ne…

women’s soccer and equal pay

John, Like so many of you, I was incredibly proud of the U.S. Women’s National Team as they competed in the World Cup and took home another victory for the United States. And as our team won the World Cup, chants of “EQUAL PAY” broke out in the stadium. John, equal pay might be in the n…

fighting for healthcare

John, Part of the reason I love working for Abigail is her commitment to lowering the cost of healthcare. One of the most pressing issues facing people across our district – and our country – is the cost of prescription medications. Far too many families are deciding between paying for t…

have we met?

  John, I wanted to introduce myself: I’m Bettina, and I’m Abigail’s Campaign Manager! I’m so excited to be back on the team so we can hit the ground running with Abigail’s re-election. I’ve had the chance to meet a lot of our supporters out in all 10 counties in VA-07 during the last ca…

A sentry stands watch. That’s what we must do now.

John, The integrity of our elections is at risk. In 2016, the Russian government hacked a major political party and our elections infrastructure, stole documents, and disseminated documents in an attempt to influence our electorate, while foreign actors working on behalf of the Russians s…

Q3 Goals

  We’ll keep this very brief, John. Abigail is doing a great job in Congress. But we’re already starting to plan for 2020 and it’s going to be a hard race. Our second quarter filing report was very strong, but now we start again with new goals for the third quarter of this year. Can we a…

Did you see Abigail on CNN?

John, Did you get a chance to catch Abigail on CNN yesterday? She was discussing healthcare because the Affordable Care Act is in legal jeopardy. 100 million Americans with pre-existing conditions could potentially lose their healthcare. By some estimates, some 642,000 Virginians would lose t…

two years ago today!

John, Two years ago today I launched my campaign for Congress! It’s unbelievable how far we’ve come. We held our first meeting in my living room with some of my dearest friends and earliest supporters. In these two years, we built a real grassroots campaign that listened to Central Virginia…

The homework gap

John, I’ve emailed you before about the broadband divide, but I wanted to tell you a little bit more about why it’s so critical. Students across the country rely on the internet for a variety of reasons, whether that’s using online resources to research more about a given subject, communicati…
