Team,

Today marks one of my favorite times of the year — and no, I don’t mean the end of the first FEC fundraising quarter.

It’s Opening Day for baseball, and the Colorado Rockies are kicking off their season this afternoon!

I love the start of baseball season — whether it’s an evening cheering on the Rockies at Coors Field or coaching my kids’ little league teams. It doesn’t get much better than spending time with friends and family and enjoying America’s favorite pastime!

Forgive the analogy, but with our big end-of-quarter deadline coming up tomorrow, we’re either going to hit a home run — or risk striking out and not meeting our goal.

My finance team just told me we’re coming up a bit short of what we need to raise by tomorrow night. I’m hoping our grassroots team can step up to the plate and help us score big.

It’s the bottom of the ninth (or the end-of-the-quarter as my finance team calls it). I’m asking you to pitch in $5 or any amount you can spare ahead of tomorrow’s deadline.

If you've saved your payment information with ActBlue Express, your donation will go through immediately:

Thanks for stepping up to the plate for our team. With you on our side, we’re going to keep up our winning streak (and hopefully rub off some good luck on the Rockies!)
