Matt Gaetz hasn't done a damn thing to help workers

Hey John -- Labor Day is normally a time for celebration -- filled with parades, barbecues, and events honoring all that unions have fought for and won for American workers. But this Labor Day is different. Because instead of a strong working class, we are in the middle of an econo…

re: Trump calling America's fallen service members "losers" and "suckers"

Trump: Americans Who Died in War Are ‘Losers’ and ‘Suckers’ - The Atlantic, 09/03  John -- Donald Trump does not respect our men and women in uniform. He does not respect their families. He does not respect veterans. He called John McCain a "loser," he attacked a Gold Star family, h…

Can you feel it? We're going to win

Hey team -- I just wanted to drop you a quick note and update you on our end-of-month fundraising goals: We hit all of our marks and have now officially raised over $1 million to defeat Matt Gaetz this November -- and it's all thanks to grassroots donors like you, John. I wish I cou…

Don't throw out your TV

John, If you weren't paying attention to the GOP Convention speaker list, here's one you need to know: Matt Gaetz. Tonight, on a national stage, Gaetz will sing Trump's praises -- in spite of every crisis Trump created for us, every occasion he utterly failed to rise to, and every …

[NEW POLL] Gaetz is in trouble

John, We've got big news to share: We conducted a poll to see how our neighbors are feeling about the upcoming election and what they think about Matt Gaetz's job performance in Congress. The response speaks volumes: Only 43% of voters in FL-01 plan on voting to re-elect Matt Gaetz.…

This is not a fundraising email

John, There are only 75 days left in this election. We can't waste a minute getting in touch with voters to let them know about Phil's plan to defeat Matt Gaetz and restore honor and integrity to Florida's 1st. But we can't do it without your help, John. A campaign powered by volunt…

re: Tuesday's Primary

John -- The Florida Primary is 3 days away and we're hard-pressed to meet our fundraising goals. Why? Because Matt Gaetz is one of the most dishonorable and dangerous people in Washington. If we're going to defeat him and replace him with a candidate who genuinely cares about our …

New job, kinda nervous!

41 days later, no action

John, It's been 41 days since the American people learned about Russian bounties on our troops' heads. We're still waiting for the President to take action. Donald Trump hasn't said a peep, and now Matt Gaetz is galavanting and promoting his HBO special and book. Matt Gaetz won’t st…

Thank you, John

Hello John, I wanted to drop you a quick note and thank you for helping get us over the finish line last week. Because this team stepped up when we needed you to, we hit our end-of-month fundraising goals and kept our television ad on the air. And your help couldn't have come at …

Help us turn off this soap opera

John, I need your help. These past few months, my team and I have been working hard to expose Matt Gaetz for who he really is: A shameless self-promoter, who is more concerned with defending the president than delivering for Floridians. We launched three television ads across Nor…

Resign

John, When I joined the U.S. Navy, I took an oath to defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic. Matt Gaetz took the same pledge when he was sworn into Congress.  It is now time for him to uphold it -- or resign.  President Trump just lau…

Grandstanding: seeking to attract applause or favorable attention from spectators or the media.

John, Matt Gaetz has been grandstanding non-stop these past few years, all in the hopes of making his idol, Donald Trump, proud of him. And you know what? Grandstanding is really all Matt has to offer our communities. As well as shilling for Donald Trump, parroting his reckless talk…

🎥 You'll want to see this

Hi John, Matt Gaetz has proven two things above all else: He's happy to let Trump do whatever he wants, regardless of how it negatively impacts our district or our democracy. Through bad and worse, he's happy to hold Trump's water. He's incapable of leading Florida's 1st District wi…

Matt Gaetz for President?

Matt Gaetz defends Trump’s racist tweet
