notes from the campaign trail these last few weeks

what our campaign has been up to [Pamela Pugh for Congress]( {NAME} – We are in the full swing of this campaign with the August 6, 2024 primary election now less than four months away. With everything ramping up, Team Pugh wanted to give you a quick update from the campaign trail. In recent days, Pam and our team have been out and about collecting ballot qualification signatures, which are due later this month: This photo is from a recent coffee hour in Bay City where we met up with volunteers before we gathered more signatures from voters: Last month during “March Madness,” Dr. Pugh met with the Saginaw High School men's basketball team. Many of these young men giants will be eligible to vote for the first time in 2024! In case you couldn’t tell, Dr. Pugh is in the middle in orange. Finally, our campaign has recently received several endorsements from organizations like Women Count, Michigan Black Caucus, the Progressive Democratic Women’s Caucus, Higher Heights PAC, The Future Today and Tomorrow, and the Michigan Council of Bishops COGIC (see below). Our campaign to elect Dr. Pugh is continuing to build momentum day by day and week by week, with every volunteer shift, social media amplification, or grassroots donation you give making us stronger and stronger. We can win this in August!
