6. SMS Messaging Program

Marty Jackley for Congress operates two separate SMS messaging programs: a supporter communications program and a volunteer/event coordination program.

Supporter Communications Program: By opting in, you consent to receive text messages from Marty Jackley for Congress including campaign updates, event announcements, fundraising appeals, endorsement news, and voter mobilization messages. Message frequency varies and may increase significantly as Election Day approaches.

Volunteer and Event Coordination Program: By opting in, you consent to receive text messages related to volunteer assignments, event logistics, responses to questions you have submitted through our chat widget, and follow-up communications related to inquiries you have made.

For both programs:

  • Message and data rates may apply. Check with your mobile carrier.
  • Reply STOP at any time to unsubscribe from that specific program.
  • Reply HELP for assistance, or contact us at info@martyjackley.com.
  • Consent to receive text messages is not a condition of contributing to, volunteering for, or otherwise supporting the Campaign.
  • We do not sell, rent, or share your mobile phone number with third parties for their marketing purposes. Phone numbers may be shared with our SMS service providers and compliance vendors solely to operate the programs.
  • Supported carriers include the major U.S. carriers. Carriers are not liable for delayed or undelivered messages.

If you replace, cancel, or forfeit your mobile number, please notify us so we can update our records.
