Jason,
It’s Jessie, our campaign’s finance director here!
Our team just met to discuss our fundraising progress over the past few weeks, and I’m proud to share that our average email contribution is $24!
This is a sign of the grassroots campaign we’re building. We’re fueled by Upstate New Yorkers–by people like you–who chip in what they can to protect NY-19 from Donald Trump’s extremism and believe in Josh’s work.
We also talked about preparing for Labor Day weekend because holiday weekends often bring a small dip in our finances, so we need to stay ahead of the curve on our goals.
Thank you!
Jessie Koch
Finance Director

Critical information regarding Trump’s attacks on ActBlue

Jason :

We’ve been emailing you for MONTHS about Trump’s attacks on ActBlue. If you missed it, please don’t skip this update:

1. Trump is directing House Republicans to INVESTIGATE ActBlue.

2. Without ActBlue, Democratic fundraising could grind to a HALT.

ActBlue donations dropping

3. That means our entire voter turnout operation is AT RISK heading into the midterms… which is exactly what Trump wants!!!

So we’re asking top Democrats like you for a small‑dollar donation on ActBlue today to keep our work funded through the midterm elections. If everyone pitches in before midnight, we’ll have the resources to take on this fight, no matter what Trump throws our way >>

DONATE $29 ON ACTBLUE NOW >>

Battleground Blue

 

Thank you for being a dedicated supporter of Democratic causes!

We’re proud to be 100% grassroots funded, meaning we never accept SuperPAC contributions or Special Interest Money.

We’re emailing you today -- because we need to elect a wave of Progressive leaders to Congress.

Without the help of our grassroots supporters, we’d have nothing. And if we can’t fundraise, Progressives will lose and Republicans will win.

While Republicans rely on corporate SuperPACs, we count on grassroots donors like you to do our work.

Every penny goes towards electing bold Progressives across the country.

Here’s what’s on the horizon.

Election Day is 60 days away, and in about a month, mail-in ballots start landing in mailboxes across California
 

With exactly two months until Election Day, we're all hands on deck for the Central Valley, but I can't do it without your help. Please chip in $3 or more to help fund our grassroots campaign.

Jason,

Election Day is 60 days away, and in about a month, mail-in ballots start landing in mailboxes across California. That's when this race really begins. Every ballot that goes out in CA-22 becomes a vote we either earn or lose.

I've spent this campaign in town halls and forums across this district, and the contrast between me and David Valadao is crystallized in every one of them.

Voters are disgusted that Trump launched a war with Iran that's costing taxpayers billions and driving up the price of gas, fuel, and fertilizer right here in the Valley. Farmers are paying more to ship crops, families are paying more at the pump, and Valadao has had nothing to say about any of it.

I believe we should end these forever wars and invest that money in our communities here at home, like in healthcare and housing.

Valadao hides from his voters. I show up where people can have their say in their own future. That's the difference.

This is one of the closest House races in the country, and outside groups are already outspending us significantly to save Valadao's seat. Now is not the time to slow down, especially with ballots about to start hitting mailboxes.

If you can, please send in a donation of $3 to help us reach every one of those mailboxes before this race is decided.

If you've saved your payment information with ActBlue Express, your donation will go through immediately:

Jason, did you miss our email? MAGA Jim Jordan has referred Democratic HERO Jack Smith for CRIMINAL PROSECUTION.

This is TERRIFYING — Jack Smith is INNOCENT! If he’s thrown in jail, it will set a dangerous precedent that Trump can punish anyone he disagrees with.

So we’re giving you one last chance to answer our urgent poll! Only 8 Democrats from Virginia Beach have responded so far: Do you approve of Jack Smith? »

Donald Trump’s revenge on former Special Counsel Jack Smith is just getting started. He’s not stopping until Smith is in PRISON.

We need to show MASSIVE support for Jack Smith from top Democrats like YOU before he testifies in a few short weeks!

10,000 top Democrats needed:
Do you approve of former Special Counsel Jack Smith?

YES, ABSOLUTELY! »
NO, I SUPPORT TRUMP »
UNSURE »

*PLEASE COMPLETE YOUR POLL IN THE NEXT FIVE MINUTES TO ENSURE YOUR RESPONSE IS COUNTED*

Jason, this kind of political retaliation is straight out of a dictatorship. Jack Smith could be prosecuted SOLELY for holding Donald Trump accountable!

Do you approve of former Special Counsel Jack Smith?

YES, ABSOLUTELY! »
