Asking for your help, {NAME}

I am facing my toughest opponent yet, and the NRA is sparing no expense to see me lose. Can you donate $5 to my campaign? [I am facing my toughest opponent yet, and the NRA is sparing no expense to see me lose. Can you donate $5 to my campaign? - Lauren Underwood]( Hey {NAME}, My name is Lauren Underwood and I’m running for re-election to Illinois’ 14th Congressional District, a rural and suburban district outside of Chicago. Not all elected officials behave like public servants. Some serve special interests like the NRA who can cut massive campaign checks. I am unbought and unbossed. And I know my duty is to serve my community and our shared values. And the people in my community -- and so many others -- are dying. Every day, we lose another 100 lives to gun violence. [We must take on the NRA and stop this heartbreak.]( I flipped this conservative-leaning seat in a historic victory in 2018. But this year, I’m facing a well-known Republican who will do whatever it takes to win. And that means relying on the NRA to try and trick voters in my district. [So I need to ask for your help today. Can you chip in $5 to my campaign?]( [Yes! I’ll chip in $5 right now >>]( {NAME}, as a registered nurse and public health expert, I take public health very seriously. And gun violence is a public health crisis. I know that when public health concerns are ignored... they fester. Problems get worse the longer we ignore them. That’s exactly what has happened with the gun violence epidemic in our country. Years of “thoughts and prayers” have allowed gun violence to infect too many communities. In Congress, I’m working day in and day out to address the gun violence epidemic -- like my vote to close the Charleston Loophole or by helping to secure $25 million for gun violence prevention research. Our campaign is looking good and we’ve moved from “toss-up” to “lean Dem,” but momentum could slip away at any moment. [That’s why I’m asking for your help, {NAME}:]( [Can you chip in $5 to my campaign?]( [Chip in $5 >>]( [Chip in $25 >>]( [Chip in $50 >>]( [Chip in $100 >>]( [Chip in $250 >>]( [Chip in another amount >>]( Your support means the world to me, [- Lauren]( [Rep.

We’re working to pass meaningful, life-saving legislation to END the scourge of gun violence across America. We have a comprehensive plan to elect gun reform champions and end the bloodshed. But no one is going to change our laws for us. If we sit idly by, the corporate gun lobby will keep its fatal grip on power, and we’ll continue to lose lives to senseless violence. So we’re turning to you for your help to save lives before it’s too late. Will you do your part and donate? [DONATE TO PASS REAL GUN SAFETY REFORM >>]( The NRA couldn’t care less about the lives we lose every day to gun violence. They’ll do whatever it takes to keep themselves in power -- no matter the human cost. We know we send you a lot of emails, {NAME}. But we can’t fight back against the NRA without help from thousands of grassroots activists. We don’t take checks from shady lobbyists -- instead, we rely on a grassroots army of gun safety activists from across the nation to fund our campaign. We simply can’t do our work without you.
