Right now, as I’m sending this email, my seat in Congress is at risk.

Not because it’s an election year, but because extreme Republican politicians are taking direct marching orders from Washington.

I’m fighting an uphill battle against extreme politicians in the state legislature who want to gerrymander my seat and give Donald Trump total control over our state. Can you chip in to help me fight back?

There’s a pretty obvious reason why National Republicans want me out of Congress: I don’t fit their mold of what a “Kansas politician” should look like.

And they’re right. I’m not a normal member of Congress. I wasn’t given a massive trust fund when I turned 18, and I wasn’t handed everything to me on a silver platter. I was raised by a single Army mom, paid my own way through college, and even had a career as an MMA fighter before I ran for elected office.

Maybe that background doesn’t make me a “typical” politician. But I think that’s a good thing. Because Congress doesn’t need any more billionaire apologists or career politicians. Washington needs people who know what it’s like to work hard for a living.

Look, I don’t know how this gerrymandering battle will end. But I do know I’m going to spend every waking second playing to win. If you’re with me, and you’re ready to keep this seat out of Donald Trump’s hands, will you chip in a donation to our campaign in the next 24 hours?

Together, we can win this fight for Kansas’ future. Thank you for having my back.
