(No thanks to Mike Simpson)

John You may not have heard about this, because the media doesn’t talk about it much, but the bipartisan infrastructure bill that passed Congress back when Democrats held the majority earmarked over a BILLION dollars in infrastructure spending for Idaho.

 

This is HUGE for our state. Not only does it mean finally fixing so many of our crumbling roads and bridges, it’s also bringing jobs and boosting our local economy.

 

Of course, our congressman wants the credit for all this good news. That’s why he recently circulated an official letter bragging about bringing federal funding home to the district.

There’s just one problem – Mike Simpson voted AGAINST every penny of this funding.

So thank you, President Biden, and thank you to my Democratic colleagues who got this done. I’m grateful that you were there for the people of my beautiful state even though my representative was NOT.

 

This is why I’m running for Congress. To fight for the resources that our communities need so that everyone gets the chance to thrive.

 

I need your help to send Mike Simpson home in November so we can flip this seat and fight for EVERY community that needs a helping hand. Your contributions will help me print campaign materials and train volunteers as we gear up for canvassing. Please consider a contribution today.

Mike Simpson knows that our state desperately needs these investments, which is why he wants the credit. But the cold fact is that if this bill came up while Republicans controlled the House majority (as they do now), Idaho would never see a dime of this.

 

Help me flip this seat in November so we can put Democrats back in the House majority and get Congress back to work.

 

Thank you,

 

David

         

David Roth is a single, gay dad running for Idaho’s Second Congressional District. We’re going up against a GOP incumbent who has been in this seat for 25 years. It’s time for change in Idaho, and our grassroots campaign is building on the momentum that began in David’s race for U.S. Senate last cycle. The GOP is not planning to defend this seat, so we plan to take it from them and help Democrats retake the House majority next year. We’d love your support to build a solid campaign to bring progress to Idaho and the country.
