I’m running to flip New York’s 19th District from red to blue

I’m writing to share some big news Hi {NAME}, it’s Josh Riley. I’m writing to share some big news: I’m running for Congress in New York’s 19th Congressional District! I’m running because I believe in the promise and potential of Upstate New York. Even after all we’ve been through, this remains a Valley of Opportunity. Upstate New Yorkers are nothing if not resilient. When we get knocked down, we get back up. And I know that we can do in the future what we have done in the past: build a strong Middle Class, protect seniors’ right to retire with dignity, defend a woman’s freedom to make her own healthcare decisions, and manufacture the things the world needs to meet our biggest challenges. But {NAME}, we need to return to a politics that puts everyday people above special interests. That’s why I’ll never take a penny of corporate PAC money. [Instead, I’m relying on grassroots supporters like you, {NAME}.

He took money from George Santos and then voted to gut the Ethics Office responsible for investigating him. He took money from corporate PACs and then he voted to give them massive tax cuts, adding $114 billion to the deficit. He’s jeopardizing the Full Faith & Credit of the American economy, threatening to balance the budget on the backs of seniors. He votes 95% of the time with Marjorie Taylor Greene! We can’t afford another two years of Marc Molinaro. [{NAME}, we need to flip New York’s 19th District from red to blue. And I know we can do it if we stand together. That’s why I hope you’ll help us start building the campaign operation to unseat Molinaro with a contribution of $5 or more before closing your inbox »]( If you've saved your payment information with ActBlue Express, your donation will go through immediately.

In 2022, our campaign won over 49.2% of the vote in a very challenging environment for New York Democrats. We had the highest Democratic turnout percentage of any congressional district in New York State – thanks to the help of grassroots supporters like you! The Cook Political Report and Sabato’s Crystal Ball are already calling NY-19 a tossup for 2024. And national Democrats just listed our district as one of their 33 initial targets for 2024. We can win this thing, {NAME}. I’m honored to have you on the team, and I look forward to working together to flip this seat blue next November. With gratitude & high hopes, Josh P.S.
