John,

I know the news feels nonstop. The attacks are constant, and I know I’m feeling it, too.

I know you get a lot of emails from us, and it can feel overwhelming. But I wanted to reach out and be honest with you about why these messages matter.

Republicans control the House, the Senate, and the White House. They’ve got complete control over our federal government. They’ve used that power to gut Medicaid, pass devastating budget cuts, and make life harder for working families. And the truth is, they’re just getting started.

We have the chance to take back the House next November. It’s one of the few ways we can fight back, block the next wave of cruelty, and finally go on the offense.

This seat is one of the most competitive in the country. Election experts are calling it a toss-up and Gabe Evans was just named the most vulnerable Republican seeking re-election. We have a real shot at winning here. But if we don’t win this seat, we lose all chances at flipping the House majority.

So that’s why we send these emails. That’s why I’m asking for your support. Because without grassroots donors, this campaign doesn’t stand a chance against the record-breaking Republican fundraising numbers. I’m not taking a dime from corporate PACs, so I rely on grassroots donors like you, John.

If you’re able to chip in today, I’d really appreciate it. And if now’s not the time, thank you for still being part of this fight.

Thank you for always sticking by me.

– Shannon
