Dear Aaron, This is a critical and exciting moment. Governor Quinn is keeping us on the road to recovery - creating jobs and working with businesses across the state - but the election in November will determine our direction for the next four years. And the contrast is stark. Senator Bill Brady is out of touch with the Illinoisans I know. He touts his skills as a businessman, but it's clear that he does not understand how difficult it is for many Illinois workers just to put food on the table. Can you stand with Governor Quinn and me by donating $250, $100, $50, or $25 to the campaign?
 Despite making millions over the years - and over $78,000 this year from his taxpayer-funded Senate salary - Brady was able to avoid paying taxes three out of the last four years. And just last week, Senator Brady proposed LOWERING the minimum wage in the state of Illinois. A full-time minimum wage worker will make $17,000 a year - and that's after the increase fought for by Governor Quinn. Brady's proposal would cut their wages by over $2,000 a year. Click here to donate $250, $100, $50, or $25 today, and we'll send you our limited-edition button. It's sure to be a conversation starter. This is the hard truth: Senator Brady is a millionaire who doesn't understand that people who work hard shouldn't have to live in poverty. You can make sure that we move Illinois forward, not backward. We need to elect Governor Quinn. We need your help to make sure that we can compete with the Brady campaign financially. Please help us today. Sincerely, Sheila Simon
Democratic Nominee for Lieutenant Governor PS - Our campaign will be judged on how much we're able to raise by today (June 30th) - please help us make a strong showing by donating $250, $100, $50, or $25 right now.
