Hi there,

This Wednesday marks our April end-of-month fundraising deadline. While this isn’t an FEC deadline in which we have to report what we have raised, it is a very real benchmark that our team uses to gauge the strength of our campaign.

As Pat’s Finance Director, I want to explain how the money we raise now has a bigger impact on our campaign than the money we raise next year. But first I have to ask: Will you consider making a contribution to help us hit our April fundraising goal?

Let me explain:

Pat has won several really competitive elections, which means we know how to win in a district like this – a purple district Trump only lost by two points, we have every reason to believe Republicans will make flipping Pat’s seat a TOP target in this election.

So we have mapped out exactly what we need to raise between now and Election Day in order to execute our comms and organizing strategy, communicate with voters, get our message out, and keep Pat in Congress.

And while contributions at every stage of the race are important, donations now have more of an impact than down the line.

They help us hire organizers to start talking to voters as soon as possible, make strategic decisions about how early we can go on TV, and so much more. Look, the sky won’t fall if you don’t rush $5 right now. But making a donation today really does have an impact on our campaign’s ability to plan and WIN. That’s why I am asking:

Will you make a contribution today to help us hit our monthly fundraising goal and keep Pat fighting for the Hudson Valley?

If you've saved your payment information with ActBlue Express, your donation will go through immediately:

Thank you,

Kevin Ralph
Finance Director
Pat Ryan for Congress
