I was born under the Ethiopian sun.

I was molded in the crucible of the Israel Defense Force.

I fought my way to the Promised Land.

And now I’m working to protect it.

Friend, my name is Mazi Melesa Pilip & I’m the GOP nominee for the biggest race in America – the NY-03 Special Election.

If you don’t know me already, let me tell you a little about myself:

I’m an Ethiopian-born Jew who fled to Israel at the age of 12 to escape antisemitism.

At 18, I enlisted in the Israel Defense Force & joined the elite Paratrooper Brigade to defend freedom & Democracy from radical Islamic terrorists.

Following my service in the IDF, I legally immigrated to the US to pursue the American Dream.

Now, I’m running for Congress to protect this great country from the Radical Left.

But I have to be blunt with you – this Special Election was announced just days ago and we only have a few short weeks until voting begins. So what happens now will decide everything.

If we’re going to win this all-important race and prevent the Democrats from destroying our slim House Majority, we have to start this campaign strong.

That’s why I’ve set an ambitious goal of raising $50,000 by the end of the day. Hitting this goal is our only chance of winning this race so I’m humbly asking for your help.

This race will be won and lost at the grassroots level – and a $5 gift right now could be the difference between winning and losing.
