Hi, I think you should run for president someday. You’re the only Congress person I can think of that keeps people informed on a regular basis with regular normal language and Goodwill. Thank you so much from a liberal Democrat in California.!

Hi Jeff...thanks for all the updates from the Hill this year, and my wife and I would really like to attend the virtual session on the 28th (our 27th anniversary!).

My only hesitation is that you've set it up under the purview of ActBlue. I know you have to use their services to streamline fund-raising, and I know those of us who have concerns over how ActBlue uses our information for other campaigns complicates the picture.

The FastAction alternative was a great solution to those concerns. I was able to set up recurring contributions, and they've not sent a single spam message. Is there any way FA could be used to pay for tickets to the virtual event? I realize there's almost no time to make any changes/additions to the event logistics, so maybe for the next one (I'd hope there is a next one)?

Wishing you and the family the merriest of Christmases, and I hope you're able to catch your breath for a few days!

And I hope you become the Attorney General of North Carolina. We need more people like you who uphold the laws of our country and have integrity and ethics.

Jeff, it’s heartening to read what you have to say. You have many dedicated fans. I think like me they instantly saw the good sense of having you be our next Attorney General.

I think this is a great idea. I recently donated to you and while I understand this is about fund raising, can we still attend this virtual event without another donation?

I liked you until this post.

I believe I’ve sent a contribution to you already.

I’m am from Pennsylvania not North Carolina. And so, I will not directly benefit from supporting you to become AG.

The way your post read, it was to thank us for our support and interest in you, which was the right note to hit.

So, I clicked on the RSVP.

I was looking forward to the event.

But in keeping with the season...”What to my wondering eyes appear”...not Santa Claus and eight tiny reindeer... but rather a price list for tickets to attend.

It showed me who you are. This was not going to be a thank you for your support. It was a way to raise money.

I am disappointed but not surprised...just another Bill Clinton at work.

I would love to hear you, and am already a contributor. I wish you would make this event free just to spread the word and let people meet you. I will be making further contributions, but this seems kinda sleazy to me.

Wish I still lived in NC, so that I could vote for you, sir!

Jeff Jackson you are a breath of fresh air! In all my years of following candidates and voting, never once has any member of the U.S. Congress ever made an effort to explain how the system works. Thanks so much for your informative updates. Stay true to your ethics and the very best of success.

What a shame that you have not talked about Israel's genocide of the Palestinians in Gaza. I guess you cannot talk about it even you are a " NEUTRAL " congressman because you are afraid of AIPAC.

America with most of its Commanders of Chief Presidents waged war in the Middle East except President Carter who could have, but he did not. How many countries have to be destroyed and how many civilians have to suffer from the USA misguided foreign policy?

Hello Jeff, I've reviewed other comments (up to an hour since your posting) and hope you'll address the useful suggestions. I have another one: Please consider making recordings of your zoom sessions available for later viewing. Of course, also, if possible, create location-based email groups to enable timely notifications prior to any of your personal appearances. Thank you, Gary (Chapel Hill).

You may have a limit of 100 people on Zoom. I don't know how to increase that number but I know that I have tried to attend Zoom meetings I really wanted to hear and was unable to because 100 people were logged in. Just a heads-up. Great newsletter.

Happy you were received well in WNC. MANY people here who deserve to know you better and increase support for the campaign. But mostly they should learn how genuine and straight talking you are, that you want what is best in NC for the people, not the Corporate racy or the Christian Nationalist movement.

Will you be recording and posting this event? As others have said, I also have an unavoidable conflict.
