Dear Robert:

The August 7th primary election is practically here. That means we are nearing the end of my last full fundraising quarter for the 2012 primary re-election campaign. The June 30th deadline is right around the corner!

With less than 9 weeks left until August 7th, I am standing strong and am grateful for the record financial support and numerous endorsements I’ve received throughout the newly merged 1st Congressional District. Having the endorsements of the St. Louis City and St. Louis County Fire Fighters, the NEA, every city ward Democratic committee that has taken an endorsement vote thus far and key Democratic organizations in North St. Louis County, it is clear that our message is resonating across the new district.

Can you join them in supporting my efforts to keep fighting for the people of this region by contributing today?

Earlier this month I stood on the floor of the House of Representatives and led the fight to stop student loan interests rates from doubling this July. The Republicans’ political games are further handicapping our best and brightest students from achieving their highest aspirations. Enough is enough!

Moreover, with budget cuts and reduced revenues always in the mix, our firefighters and other first responders have struggled to perform at their full capacity to continue keeping the public safe. After working with FEMA and the Department of Homeland Security, I helped secure over $6 million to restore over 30 first responders jobs, to purchase critical vehicles and equipment, and to jumpstart three projects that will drastically improve the response time and effectiveness of emergency rescues up and down the Mississippi River.

I have also fought for critical investments in transportation and infrastructure, renewable energy manufacturing, tourism, and key projects like the River City Casino. These projects will bring in needed revenue and thousands of new jobs for our region.

I have accomplished all of this because of your support. With so much at stake and so much more to get done, we can’t stop now.

My record demonstrates my commitment, and now I need one from you. Can you help me by contributing $3, $13, $30, $300 or more before our June 30th end of 2nd Quarter fundraising deadline? Your support will help me continue the critical work at hand.

Thank you for your commitment and I look forward to the honor of representing Missouri’s new 1st Congressional District that will include the entire City of St. Louis along with Central and North St. Louis County.

Sincerely,

Russ Carnahan

P.S. I am counting on you…
