Hey – I’m hoping you had a chance to read my finance team’s latest update.
They are hard at work preparing for an unprecedented campaign season. Between overwhelmingly virtual voter contact, mail-in voting, and a historically unfit president to vote out of the White House – we have our work cut out for us.
And we are relying on this grassroots team to fuel our success every step of the way! With two opponents challenging me for this seat, your support is critical ahead of our mid-month deadline.

Folks — The candidate declaration and signature gathering phase of the Rhode Island primary has wrapped up, and it’s official:
David will be on the ballot seeking re-election in the First District – and two other candidates are hoping to replace him in November.
With the race set, we need to pick up our fundraising numbers immediately. Can you rush a contribution to help us start strong and hit our mid-month goal?
If you've saved your payment information with ActBlue Express, your donation will go through immediately:
With our opponents set, we have to raise the money to expand our volunteer base, fully fund our paid communications strategy, and educate voters about new vote-by-mail procedures to ensure they vote safely and confidently!
And with this likely to be a mostly virtual campaign season, we must have the resources to transfer campaign operations online – an expense we could not have predicted when we outlined a budget at the beginning of the year!
