Dear Democrats,

We thought you’d like to know that Jon Hulburd, the only Democrat running for Congress in Arizona’s 3rd District, is getting some well-deserved media attention for his fundraising success. But Hulburd is also impressing voters with his efforts to do what more politicians should actually be doing: working to improve our community.

On Friday, Hulburd announced substantial fundraising numbers, having raised $750,000 since beginning his campaign and over $250,000 in the last quarter alone. The political press took notice of this impressive haul. In case you missed it, check out these articles and video:

Hulburd also recently unveiled Community Comes First – a series of service projects to benefit neighbors in the district.

The first project is this Saturday, July 17 at 9 a.m. Volunteers will clean apartments for new families arriving at the Central Arizona Shelter Services' Vista Colina Center. This is an emergency shelter committed to providing families with a safe place to stay when they fall on hard times. The center is at 1050 W Mountain View Road in Phoenix. If you’d like to volunteer for this or other Community Comes First projects, contact Gabi Porter at (480) 252-5719 or sign up online at www.hulburdforcongress.com/community.

Top-quality Democratic candidates like Jon Hulburd are critical in this election cycle. Let’s show them our support and get involved today!

Yours in the fight,

Luis Heredia

Executive Director, Arizona Democratic Party
