I have always stuck to one unwavering principle:

Folks, I’m going to be level with you: Fundraising this summer has been hard, and with my $75,000 August end-of-month deadline on Monday, I need you with me to help turn this summer slump around.

Before I explain the stakes and why hitting this goal matters so much to my campaign, I have to ask: Will you chip in just $15 today to help me win in TX-33 and help Democrats flip the House blue?

Here’s what you need to know:

➡️Last year, Texas Republicans were quick to bend the knee to Donald Trump when he asked them to draw him five new GOP districts. As a result, minority voters have been silenced across our state so Republicans could hold onto power in the House. And TX-33 – the district I’m running in – was racially gerrymandered in the process of delivering those five new Republican-leaning seats.

➡️Despite the fact that this district shouldn’t even exist, my history here still stands. Dallas is my home. It’s where I was raised by my single mom and attended public school. It’s where I got my start in life, earned a football scholarship at Baylor, made my way through to the NFL, and eventually became a civil rights lawyer. And it’s where I’m raising my two boys with my wife, Aly, today.

➡️Now, I’m running for Congress because I still have more to give to my community – and because we simply cannot allow someone like my GOP opponent to represent us and be just another rubber stamp for Trump. He’s spread misinformation about curing COVID-19 with “electricity.” He’s openly supported an abortion ban, jeopardizing the health of women across our state. And he’s an avid climate denier despite record-breaking temperatures affecting our state year after year.

Now look, I’ve won tough House races before. When I first ran for Congress, no one thought I could beat a 22-year GOP incumbent. But I defied the odds and delivered strong Democratic leadership to represent my former district in the House for the first time in decades.

In all my time being a public servant and running these campaigns, I have stuck to one unwavering principle: I do not take a dime from corporate PACs or mega-rich donors. I rely solely on the generosity of grassroots supporters like you.

So, with just 67 days until Election Day, meeting every fundraising goal we set is critical to winning this seat and flipping the House blue. So when I say we’re still $75,000 short of our end-of-month goal, I’m counting on grassroots donors like you to close the gap. Will you help me reach my goal and take back the House for Democrats by chipping in $15 now?

Thank you for standing with me.
