Friend,

Last week, my team sent you an email about a dark money group that’s pouring millions of dollars into our race on behalf of DC special interests that want to take away our health care.

We just found out they’re planning another buy of almost a million dollars in TV ads to prop up my opponent, Rich McCormick -- and I wanted to take a moment to explain to you just how dangerous that is for our health care, our district, and our country.

First, the fact that dark money groups and corporate PACs can pour millions of dollars into Congressional races shows just how broken politics is in our country, and why we need a candidate who will commit to ending Citizens United and take big money out of politics.

Second, Rich McCormick is not only proving he can be bought and paid for by special interest money. He’s also allowing them to use that dark money spending to present his candidacy as reasonable and moderate, when the reality shows that he is a conspiracy theorist and extreme politician who poses a threat to our health care and the families of Georgia.

Stop Rich McCormick >> [link removed]

Friend, Georgia Republicans have already chosen an extreme nominee to represent them. Marjorie Taylor Greene, who has a clear path to winning her race in GA-14, is a QAnon propagator who uses her platform to spread both misinformation about our democracy and disgusting, racist, anti-Semitic conspiracy theories against people of color and Jewish people.

She is cut from the same cloth as Rich McCormick, who is a regular guest on QAnon “news” shows in order to spread similar conspiracies -- and whose wife sent the maximum donation amount allowed under law to Greene’s campaign.

Both candidates deny or downplay the existence of COVID-19, the deadly pandemic that has taken the lives of thousands of Georgians and put millions of people out of work. Both candidates have used their platform to promote dangerous misinformation -- and both candidates are accepting money from corrupt interests who are willing to risk the fabric of our democracy by propping their candidacies up in order to turn a profit and further their anti-health care agenda.

I am running for Congress to build a road to economic recovery and fight for affordable health care for all in the wake of this pandemic. I lead with facts, not conspiracy theories, and I refuse to be bought. It's why I've pledged not to take a dime of corporate PAC money.

In Congress, I will uplift all Georgia families regardless of race, religion, or sexual orientation -- and I will fight against the lies and bigotry that threatens to embed itself in our government as members of Congress.

But I can only win with you by my side, friend. We must defeat Rich McCormick and everything he stands for -- and we must do it together.

The stakes we face in this election couldn't be higher. Let us stand together against the ugliness threatening to overtake Georgia politics, as well as the special interests trying to buy our elections.

And in November, let us win the fight for Georgia and so I can be an advocate for all our families in Congress.
