** Where Your Donation is Going
------------------------------------------------------------
All of us know running in Missouri is a tough task. Our state government is captured by powerful people and run by politicians who actively fight to keep us divided while they defund our schools, break our justice system, and leave you and me to fend for ourselves against all sorts of scam artists.
I'm fortunate to have been supported by so many folks with only a few dollars to give, and I take each donation we receive seriously. I would not have considered running for Attorney General if I thought your money would go to waste. And I took many months thinking about it.
I wasn't planning to travel the state during the exploratory campaign, but I was invited by a bunch of friends and I couldn't say no.
One of our supporters in Lincoln County asked me:
"Why is this time any different?"
I told her and everyone else in the room the truth: Last time, we relied on local political clubs all over the state to get the word out. I went to over 600 meetings in every county and ran my poor car into the ground.
But, despite these folks working so hard, their efforts aren't paying off like they want them to. And we know why. We have a serious problem with a lack of organization in our state, and politicians are taking advantage of the resulting lack of real accountability.
I heard the same thing in Wellston just days later: We have the same people show up to every meeting, and we're not getting the younger generation of Missourians interested in governing our state. We're not expanding our reach. We're not growing.
This campaign is about winning back one of the most important offices in our state.
But it's also about building back our communities, energizing your neighborhood, engaging each and every one of us in the political process. That's why one of the first activities our volunteers could sign up for is organizing their neighborhoods. And dozens of Missourians have already chosen to do just that.
This time is different because, with your help, we are going to build the Missouri we know we can be.
That means building a network that shows up everywhere.
It means asking folks what they care about and seeing how we can support them.
It means truly investing in the People of Missouri.
It means helping folks understand the importance of state government.
It means pointing Missourians in the right direction when they're fired up and ready to go.
It means leaving no one behind.
This is a big project. But we know it's well worth it, and we know it's well past time for us to get to work. So I don't just want you on our team. I need you to get this done.
We have the blueprint and big plans. We just need you.
If you haven't already, please consider signing up to volunteer. And send a message by putting your name on our quarterly report with a donation by midnight March 31.
