Can I explain something, John?
I grew up in a twenty-four-by-thirty-six foot house. I lost three fingers
on my left hand in a meat grinding accident when I was a kid. I am and
always will be a farmer, like my folks and like my grandparents.
In fact, I’m very proud to be the only U.S. Senator who manages a
full-time job outside the Senate — as a farmer.
Every spring, I spend weeks working the stubble, getting equipment ready
for planting, and out in the field seeding. Come summer, I am out there
harvesting. I maintain my own heavy equipment and deliver my grain in a
truck that’s a bit bigger than what any of my colleagues drive.
I buy grease by the case and seeds by the ton. I butcher my own beef. My
wife, Sharla, and I work the farm hand-in-hand.
The task of scheduling my work in the Senate around the inflexible timing
of farm responsibilities drives my staff crazy — but they know my farm
work is non-negotiable. It keeps me, quite literally, grounded.
And rather than spend my days hobnobbing with Republican special
interests, I rely on hard-working folks like you to power everything we
do.

split a donation between No Dem Left Behind and my campaign today to help
us block Mitch McConnell from taking back the Senate. Anything you can
give makes a difference.
If you’ve saved your payment information with ActBlue Express, your
donation will go through immediately:

Thank you so much for sticking by me. I promise to spend every ounce of
time fighting for you and your families (when I’m not out in the field, of
course).
Thanks,
