So here’s the truth: We’re just over halfway to our next FEC deadline, but we’re less than halfway to our fundraising goals. That means this is the moment we need to pick up our fundraising pace. If you understand why this matters and that’s all you need to hear, [please use this link to add a donation of any amount you can afford.]( [CONTRIBUTE]( Fundraising during the summer is notoriously hard.

Our fundraising is seen as a signal of the grassroots support for Chris and the grassroots support for gun safety legislation.

[So please, if you can, make a contribution to support Chris and his efforts to elect gun safety champions. Our next FEC deadline is quickly approaching, and we are hoping for a LOT of people to give just a little bit to help us reach our goals.]( If you've stored your info with ActBlue, we'll process your contribution instantly.
