Dear Friend,

As we head into this season of gratitude, I want to say thank you. Not just for believing in our mission at Country First, but for living it. 

Thank you to the tens of thousands who signed our petitions. To the 41,952 of you who contacted your legislators through our Days of Action, and 12,700 who joined us for Dash for Democracy.

Each of these numbers is rooted in courage, community, and the belief that democracy is worth defending. That truth still matters, that integrity still matters, and that putting country over party is still possible.

That’s what Country First is all about. It’s about making it easier for everyday Americans to stand up for what’s right, even when standing up isn't always easy. Speaking truth when lies are louder takes guts. Defending democracy in your own community, sometimes even in your own family, can be the hardest thing you'll ever do. 

But you're doing it anyway, Friend, and that's what gives me hope.

Because when I see you taking action, I see the country I still believe in. A country where truth matters. Where integrity isn't optional. And where our voices are heard and make an impact. 

Thank you for standing with us. Thank you for choosing country first.

Sincerely,

Adam Kinzinger
