And Dan Kildee is facing a VERY tough race in the midterms. His final quarterly FEC reporting deadline before the election is at the end of the month and he has to make his numbers public. This report is a critical metric that will be used by pundits, pollsters, his opponent, and everyone else to gauge the strength of his campaign. We can’t afford to look weak in this final quarterly report, especially as it coincides with Michigan voters starting to head to the polls.

Thanks to his leadership in the House, Democrats are fighting to lower the cost of everyday goods like gasoline and prescription drugs, fighting to protect reproductive rights, and more. It’s critical that we support Dan as he faces his toughest reelection fight ever. Republicans’ path to flipping the House runs right through Dan’s district. Dan is the median house seat in the country — seat 218 for each party trying to control the House and all the political reports make it clear that this district is as competitive as it can get. That’s why the opposition has already spent millions of dollars on airtime for negative attack ads against Dan. [We can’t let them win this crucial race or Democrats will likely lose their control of the US House. The stakes couldn’t be higher. Dan needs your support to show the strength of his grassroots campaign against a barrage of attacks from MAGA Republicans.
