Friend,

I'm James Walkinshaw — a proud husband, father, lifelong Virginian, and the Democratic nominee for the special election in Virginia's 11th District.

This campaign is personal to me — and it's personal for Democrats across the country. Because this is our first chance to elect a new Democrat to Congress since Trump forced through his cruel budget.

And my opponent? He's the man who wrote their DOGE policy.

I was raised in Northern Virginia by a nurse and a plumber who taught me to work hard, do the right thing, and never back down from a bully. That's what I carried with me when I served as Congressman Gerry Connolly's Chief of Staff, and what I carried when I flipped a Republican seat on the Fairfax County Board of Supervisors.

Since then, I've:

* Banned guns from libraries and rec centers,
* Defended abortion rights after Roe fell,
* Funded record teacher pay raises,
* Delivered real climate action — from solar power to cutting plastic waste.

Now I'm stepping up to keep this seat blue and stop Trump's DOGE cheerleader from taking his extremist agenda to Congress. But I can't do it without you.

Will you split a donation today between my campaign and iVote Fund to make sure we have the resources to win on September 9? [[link removed]]

iVote was created in 2014 with one goal: secure voting rights for all Americans.

Rather than take on challenges in the court after unfair laws have passed, iVote plays defense on voter suppression efforts AND goes on offense to secure and expand access to voting.

Going on offense is critical. We have the chance to elect Secretaries of State that will protect our elections for years to come. But Republicans are already suppressing and blocking certain citizens from exercising their fundamental right to vote.

We need a massive coalition to register new voters and protect our right to vote in this election and beyond.

We know you get a lot of emails, but it's only because this fight is so important. We need you to stick with us long term. But if you must go, you can unsubscribe.
