Hey John,

I was back on the farm recently with Sharla, and we spent the days seeding peas and pulling 16-hour days in the fields.

I love being a farmer. I knew I wanted to take over my family’s farm since I was eight years old. It gets my hands dirty and keeps me grounded. And reminds me why I fight so hard for Montana’s families.

But it also means I have a lot less time to fundraise than all of my colleagues. And trust me, I hate asking for money. I know how hard you work for every dollar—plus I’d rather spend my time out on the tractor anyway.

The truth is, this race will be the most expensive Senate election in Montana’s history. Outside groups will pour upwards of $100 million into our state to distort my record and mislead voters.

All this to say, we really do need money to combat attacks like that. So, here’s the part where I ask:

June is off to a way slower start than we predicted, and we’re at risk of falling short of our weekly goal. Could pitch in a split donation of any amount to get us back on track? It would mean a lot to me. »

Appreciate anything you can give.

— Jon
