Folks,

I’m still home on the farm this week. 🚜

It’s almost time to start seeding but Sharla and I are still waiting for the snow to melt and the water to recede from some of our fields. In the meantime, we’re getting the equipment ready so we can get out there the moment things clear up. You can plan as much as you want, but Mother Nature calls the shots.

I gotta tell ya, I love this time of year — sure, it is a bit stressful with all the work we have to get done. But getting my hands in the soil and running the tractor for 16 hours a day really grounds me. With some hard work and a little luck, we will set ourselves up for a good harvest.

In fact, the work Sharla and I do on the farm is kind of like the campaign we’re running. Fundraising early helps plant the seeds of our campaign so that we can continue to grow our movement and, ultimately, come home with a successful harvest on Election Day.

To honor planting season and our campaign’s commitment to being truly grassroots, we are setting a goal to receive contributions from 10,000 individual donors before planting season finally begins on April 15th.

Can I count on you to be the first to chip in and help *sow the seeds* of our campaign to keep Montana values in Washington? It’s almost planting season, so I am counting on you to contribute (doesn’t matter how much!) to help us reach our goal of 10,000 grassroots donors.

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

Chip in $10 now Chip in $17.77 now

Chip in $50 now Chip in $100 now

Chip in $250 now Another Amount

Farming allows me to take time to work in the open and quiet fields. It reminds me what’s important, and reaffirms my commitment to representing Montana. I’m not in this race to get rich. I’m running because I’m not done fighting for you and your family.

National Republicans will spend tens of millions in shady dark money to try and stop us.

But just like in planting, you reap what you sow. That’s why I care so much about building this campaign up from the grassroots.

OK — I’m going to get back to the shop to work on my tractor, thanks for your support and have a great weekend!

Jon
