David vs. Goliath II

Josh Turek.

David and Goliath had nothing on us.

Listen, I’m a lifelong underdog in every sense of the word — I was diagnosed with spina bifida the day I was born.

I was cut from the national wheelchair basketball team after my first Paralympics, then made a comeback to win two gold medals in wheelchair basketball for Team USA.

And I won a conservative Western Iowa district no one thought I’d win as a first-time candidate.

So I’m no stranger to defying the odds, David vs. Goliath-style.

However, the battle I’m facing in November has to be the most daunting matchup of my career.

My opponent has: $100M in MAGA money backing her.

I have: you. $0.00 of corporate PAC money.

With enough grit, grind, and grassroots momentum, we can win a landmark victory on behalf of the majority of Americans who don’t have lobbyists on the payroll.

One week. That’s all the time we have to defeat the Swamp (Goliath) and fight for the vast majority of Americans who don’t have lobbyists on the payroll (David).

Can I count on you to rush $5, $10, or ANY amount you can to fund our final voter turnout efforts before time runs out?
