Hey there, friend, it's Gary again. My team and I just finished our last goal update meeting before our end-of-quarter deadline.

We're getting so close to hitting this (ambitious) $30,000 goal, but donations have slowed to a trickle, and we're running out of time to make up the gap. Here's where things stand:

I know you hear a lot from our team about deadlines and goals, but this is one that really matters. Republicans just have to flip one seat to retake control, and Democrats are already playing defense in tough states like Michigan, Ohio and Nevada.

If we fall short here, it'll send a clear sign to Mitch McConnell that control of the Senate is up for grabs. And more importantly, it means our work to defend our Senate majority will be critically underfunded – making it harder to help fight back against GOP attacks.

We simply cannot afford to fall behind this early in the cycle. That's why I have to ask one last time before midnight tonight: Please, will you donate $5 right now to help us hit our goal and defend our Senate majority?

It's now or never, and I need you to have my back here, friend. Here's the best link to make your end-of-quarter gift: https://secure.actblue.com/donate/gp_email/eoq

I am so incredibly grateful for your support.
