I won!

 

We defied the odds and I JUST WON MY PRIMARY. I’m gonna be completely transparent. I’m about to ask you for $5, but first let me explain why it’s so crucial folks like you donate tonight: I decided to run because I know my community needs a leader who will fight every day for and with the marginalized and disadvantaged. And I won thanks to overwhelming grassroots support. But it took every single dollar we had to win my primary. I’m starting over from scratch only 77 days out from the general election. I need $41,829 tonight alone to pay staff, fund our general election ads, and keep the lights on in our campaign office. So I’m asking: can I count on you to chip in $5? To have you as a Founding Member of my historic general election campaign would mean so much >> People doubted me from the beginning. We had to work harder than everybody to prove ourselves, and we’re in this position because we did that work. It’s been difficult. This is the hardest thing I’ve ever done in my life, but I never lost sight of who we are fighting for: Young people across this country: I would be the first member of Generation Z in Congress. A member of the mass shooting generation who have watched our leaders fail to act and have experienced more school shooter drills than fire drills. We will face the harshest consequences if Congress fails to act on climate change, gun violence, and an economic system that increasingly serves only the wealthy. People like my mom and abuela. My mother and grandmother came here from Cuba during the freedom flights in the late 1960s. What my family had to go through just to eat and have a roof over their heads, is a testament to the resilience and drive of immigrants. But it is also an incredibly sad story. I wonder where my abuela, Yeya, would be today if our country was committed to equity when she moved here. Who would she be if money wasn’t an issue? If she had not been exploited by Miami factories that had her working 70+ hours a week for almost nothing. Where would our people be? People like my biological mother. A victim of the system and enmeshed in trying circumstances, she turned to drugs and crime while pregnant with me. She had no access to healthcare and wasn’t able to see a doctor once during her pregnancy. In the wealthiest country in the world, she was neglected by society and left without anyone to turn to. As the mother of seven, she made the difficult decision to put me up for adoption because she lacked the resources to care for and raise another child. I’m ready to fight for the future we deserve in Congress. But I cannot do this alone. Please chip in what you can to help us raise $41,829 TONIGHT. >>
