Friend,

I voted yesterday to convict Donald Trump on both impeachment charges brought against him by Congress.

As you know, I'm a Democrat representing a state that tends to vote for Republicans, and my Senate race is arguably the most competitive in this entire election cycle. But I didn't consult my party or polling before I took this vote. I made my decision based on evidence.

My vote to convict Donald Trump isn't going to make Mitch McConnell or Donald Trump happy, but it was the right thing to do.

Here's the sad truth: My opponents have already started attacking me for doing what's right -- one group spent a half a million dollars last week while we were still deliberating! I will need your help to make sure we can fight back against Mitch McConnell's megadonors.

Please, friend, I wouldn't ask if I didn't need your help to remove Mitch McConnell from power. Will you split a donation between my campaign and Senator Schumer's today?

Friend, the evidence clearly proves that Donald Trump coerced a foreign government to interfere in our election for his personal political benefit, placing his personal interest above our national interests.

I also believe that the president deliberately obstructed Congress by blocking testimony from witnesses and the production of documents during the course of the investigation. This is unacceptable, but it didn't seem to bother Mitch McConnell.

The stakes are historically high, but to Mitch McConnell and his enablers in Washington, no tactics are off-limits if they lead to more power. That's not how I operate, friend. I will continue working hard in the Senate for what's right -- defending our health care, civil rights, and equality -- but I can't do it alone.

Please, if you care about keeping courageous voices who will fight for what's right for the country -- not what's right for Mitch McConnell and Donald Trump -- pitch in $5 to support my re-election and Senator Schumer's campaign. Your gift will be put to immediate work supporting my campaign and Senate Democrats in their fight to remove Mitch McConnell from power.

Thank you for your support.

Doug Jones
U.S. Senator, Alabama
