The GOP is censoring our educators

John,   Censorship and restricting our rights – these are the policies of today’s radical Republican party.   The extreme laws on abortion and reproductive care in Idaho put lives at risk and make medical providers afraid to do their jobs. Now, it’s becom…

We came up short

Hi John,   We won’t take up too much of your time today. We are reaching out because we are running a bit behind and hoping you can help us catch up.    Just $1,474 (let’s call it $1500) will give our efforts a boost and get us back on track today!    Can…

Hard truths for Idaho Republicans

Extreme bans on abortion are unconstitutional. John,   Idaho lawmakers need to face it – their extreme ban on abortion is unconstitutional.    A federal judge recently shut down the Idaho Attorney General’s latest attempt to criminalize healthcare provider…

The GOP is afraid

John,   The youth vote is under attack.   Republicans know that when young people turn out to vote, they lose.    The GOP is afraid of youth and their power – because it’s youth who will face the consequences of irresponsible Republican policy. It’s youth…

20 states against Idaho

We’re being sued. John,   I’m working to make Idaho a place that takes care of the people who live here. Unfortunately, in our post-Roe world, that’s just not the case.   After Roe v. Wade was overturned, Idaho implemented one of the most severe abortion b…

The countdown starts now

Are you with us? John,   We don’t want to take up much of your time today – we just have a quick message about where we stand as a campaign and where we go from here.   David is getting busier every day, traveling this massive district and visiting with as…

America knows better

John,   Donald Trump never ceases to embarrass this country, embarrass himself, and demean the presidency.   We learned Tuesday that the disgraced former president has been indicted a third time – and this is the most serious of them all.   Trump was char…

We’re REALLY close!

Can you spare $5? John,   I know you’re getting tons of emails right now so I promise to be brief.    We’re so close to hitting our fundraising goal for July, and we need your help to help us get there.   A $5 donation from each person reading this email w…

Out with the old, in with the Blue

John,   Looking back at the past few months, I can’t help but worry for my children and what the future holds for them – especially if they decide to stay in Idaho when they grow up.   Supreme Court justices are proudly accepting bribes from far-right bil…

What will it take?

John,   He poisoned the country with his dangerous lies about the 2020 election, led a plot to overturn the results, and incited a deadly insurrection.   Still, it appears as if no amount of federal charges or indictments will keep Donald Trump from being…

This is how we make real change

John,   I’m following up on my team’s message from yesterday, and wanted to share some of my ambitions for this campaign.   When we’re asking for your donations and support, you can trust that we only ever ask for what we really need.    ID-02 needs bette…

This is your chance to make a difference

John,   When we send David to Congress next fall, it will be you – our earliest, most committed supporters – we have to thank.   We’ve said if before, but it bears repeating. The money we raise now will have the biggest impact.   David is ramping up his t…

Our children can’t be thrown away

John,   Last week, gun control advocates handed Rep. Lauren Boebert a pin featuring the green Converse worn by a 9-year-old victim of the Uvalde mass shooting. Seconds later, she threw it in the trash. I spend every day worrie…

11 days to go

We aren’t slowing down. John,   Here at Team Roth, things are moving faster every day.   This is a campaign of ideas, and a campaign built on connecting with real people. David wouldn’t have it any other way.    Lots of travel and conversation after conve…

I’m in your corner

John,   I’m a single dad raising two sons here in Idaho. I’m not an uber-wealthy (or even kinda wealthy) candidate for Congress bankrolled by special interests and looking to pad my own pockets once elected – my life is a lot like yours, and I’m in your c…

We were so close

Still, it’s not too late John,   I much prefer writing to you all with good news – but that can’t always be the case.   We narrowly missed our mid-month fundraising goal for July. It’s not easy to harness organizing and fundraising energy for an election t…

Republicans have a losing message, and they know it.

America is done with extremism John,   Americans are ready to tell Republicans the truth – far-right extremism isn’t right for the country, nor is it popular.    The 2024 election season is already underway. The GOP knows it, and their special-interest fun…

Yet another GOP attempt to destroy democracy

We must protect the right to vote. John,   When we’ve got leaders attempting to make it harder for people to vote, we know we’re going in the wrong direction.   Recently, Idaho’s Republican governor signed HB 340 into law. This bill –  sent to his desk by …

I’m disgusted by this news

John,   The war on women is here.   The overturning of Roe v. Wade effectively made women second-class citizens – and the onslaught of oppressive legislation that has arisen all across the country was only the beginning.   We know that access to reproduct…

It’s never too early

Here’s why the ground we gain now will make all the difference John,   Election Day 2024 may feel far away – but the truth is, we’re the underdog in this race. David is mounting a challenge against a Republican who’s been in office for a quarter-century. W…

How do we celebrate freedom when so many aren’t free?

We’ve got a deadline closing in

Celebrating Pride in June and beyond

I’m remembering Stonewall and looking ahead John,   54 years ago today, brave LGBTQ+ New Yorkers stood up against vitriol and hatred at the Stonewall uprising. This marked a watershed moment for the movement for LGBTQ+ equality in America, and a defining …

One year without Roe v. Wade

Where do we go from here? John,   One year ago today, a US Supreme Court – bought by radical right-wing forces – overturned Roe v. Wade, reversing 50 years of precedent and threatening the lives of women all over the country and jeopardizing numerous funda…

Juneteenth, the second Independence Day

Social Security and Medicare won’t see cuts on my watch
