Hi John! It's Alison.

I hope you’re having an amazing Memorial Day weekend, even if it’s on the chillier side here in New York. As you log back on, I’ve got a campaign update that just can’t wait.

So, here’s the deal:

Thanks to supporters like you, we reached our fundraising goal before last week's deadline. But we have more to do!

We know the Campaign Finance Board (CFB) withholds matching funds until the eleventh hour. Brad wants to ensure we are in the best possible situation to manage our expenses and have enough cash on hand leading up to Election Day.

That's why we need to raise $65,00 before the next fundraising deadline of the campaign cycle on June 9 — the last one that will qualify for matching funds before Election Day.

Will you please make a contribution of $10 now to help Brad cover for unexpected campaign expenses? Even a few bucks helps our cash flow.

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

You’ll hear from Brad shortly about why raising this final $65,000 is so important. But in the meantime, I just want to say thank you from the bottom of my heart for supporting this campaign.

This week, we're not slowing down one bit. Brad will be out talking to voters at our town hall debate with Rep. Nicole Malliotakis*, subway stops, and small businesses. We’re reaching as many New Yorkers as we can every day, but we need to close this one last fundraising gap to get there.

Thank you,

Alison
