Friend, I hope you’re well. I’m writing with exciting news: I’m running for Congress in Colorado’s 4th District—again. You believed in me last time because you know we need real solutions for Eastern Colorado—not political theater. Can I count on you to join my campaign to defeat Lauren Boebert and become a founding donor today? Why do we need an Engineer in Congress? Let me explain: Only One Shot at Getting It Right: If companies bring manufacturing back to America, we need a Congress that knows how to partner with them responsibly—not just hand out favors—so we protect local jobs and build our economy. Real Manufacturing Roots: Growing up in a manufacturing town in Pennsylvania taught me the impact factories have on families — whether they thrive or disappear. Our neighbors in Fort Morgan and Sterling have felt similar pain from retaliatory tariffs on wheat, corn, and soy. Building Strong Communities: We want a future where local businesses can fail without devastating entire towns. We do that by investing in safety nets, fair trade, and the people who work the land and run our shops. Made in America, led by Americans: We deserve leaders who understand international trade and how to create a system that benefits every American business — and especially the working families behind each product. Our District is at risk, friend. Lauren Boebert and MAGA extremists chase headlines instead of ensuring farmers and manufacturers can survive rising costs and trade disruptions. We’ve seen how tariff battles damage the dairy industry in Greeley — every steel pipe and storage tank gets pricier, and our neighbors pay the price. It’s time for a representative who works with everyone — progressives, moderates, and Republicans — to protect Social Security, Medicare, and the local industries we rely on here in Colorado’s 4th. I’m up against powerful interests with deep pockets, but we have something stronger: you. With your help, we can flip this district and send a proven problem-solver to Congress. Will you stand with me by becoming a Day One founding donor? If you've saved your payment information with ActBlue Express, your donation will go through immediately: No amount is too small — every dollar proves we’re a force that cannot be ignored. Thank you for believing in this campaign from the start. Let’s send an engineer to Washington who understands what it takes to keep our factories running, our farms thriving, and our communities strong. In solidarity, John Padora Manufacturing Engineer  P.S. Please donate today and help me fight for working families in Colorado’s 4th. Together, we’ll fix what’s broken in Congress and ensure a brighter future for us all. Paid for by Padora for Congress |
