Let me pull back the curtain.

Jason, see this photo? That’s me as a kid. I never thought that I would run for office when I was a little girl — let alone become the first woman governor of New York. When I was born, my parents had just moved out of a trailer and into a small apartment in Woodlawn, New York. My dad worked long shifts at the steel mill. I watched my mother — who raised six kids — stretch every dollar by buying used clothes and serving fried spam sandwiches for dinner. Witnessing the struggles and pain of those left behind inspired me to run for office, to be a voice for communities that had fallen on hard times, because I had lived that experience. I refuse to sit back and watch as these same struggling families are abandoned by Donald Trump, Bruce Blakeman, and their D.C. Republican allies. But Republican special interest donors could rush millions to my opponent, Bruce Blakeman, to buy control of New York. If I’m going to stand up to Trump’s enablers and defeat Bruce Blakeman, I need grassroots supporters like you to have my back. Can I count on you to rush in $25 between me and Josh Harder before our End of Month Deadline? >> DONATE » Jason, my childhood inspired me to fight for New York families with everything I’ve got. As Governor, I’ve… …provided over $100 million in state funding for emergency food assistance …distributed inflation refund checks for more than 8 million New Yorkers …and delivered universal free school meals for every New York child But as you’re reading this, Bruce Blakeman is growing his warchest to take me down, turn New York red, and bring Trump’s agenda to our state. We can’t let that happen. So please, Jason: Will you chip in $25 between me and Josh Harder before our End of Month Deadline to help me counter this fundraising blitz and keep Republican extremism out of New York? >> If you’ve saved your payment information with ActBlue Express, your payment will go through immediately: DONATE $5 → DONATE $10 → DONATE $25 → DONATE $50 → DONATE $100 → DONATE OTHER → Ever upward, Kathy Hochul Josh Harder for Congress PO Box 4220 Manteca, CA 95337 United States unsubscribe
