Did you see Joaquin's message, Friend?
We’re less than 48 hours away from our end-of-the-year fundraising deadline – and we’re still pretty far from our goal.

Friend, this is our LAST CHANCE to raise the grassroots support we need to start the year strong.
2026 is the year we take back Congress. It’s the year we put a check on Donald Trump and his lawless administration. But we can’t do it without support from folks like you.
Can you chip in $26 to help Joaquin WIN in 2026 and hold Trump accountable? Your support helps us organize and mobilize Texans in a critical midterm year.
Thank you,
Castro HQ

Subject: Where we stand
To: Friend
Friend,
As we head into the final stretch of 2025, I wanted to be upfront with you about where we stand.
Trump and Congressional Republicans are terrified.
They know they’re likely headed for a big defeat in 2026 — so they’re doubling down on gerrymandering states like Texas and throwing lots of money trying to defeat incumbents like me. But we’re fighting back…
That’s why we’ve set a modest but important goal of raising $5,000 before the end-of-the-year fundraising deadline. If we’re able to hit our goal, it would make a BIG difference in our ability to mobilize voters in Texas.
So I’m asking you: could you chip in $26, or any amount you can, to help us hit our end-of-year fundraising goal of $5,000? Your support means so much – and makes a big difference in our fight to defeat Trump.
Thank you,
-Joaquin
