In Their Words
What they have said, on the record
“Our campaign has been supported 100% from individual donors with the exception of only one single $1000 PAC contribution from Rep. Tim Kennedy's (who I met in Selma and was kind enough to support us) leadership PAC, while Representative Strong's campaign continues to be overwhelmingly funded from corporations and PACs. That matters.”
“I'm honored and humbled to continue to receive such incredible support, especially from so many individuals, right here in the 5th district. I don't take for granted, for even a moment, that these donations are a true sacrifice for many people, even as the cost of living continues to climb, and it gets harder and harder for folks to have anything left at the end of the month.”
