My friend and colleague Senator Jacky Rosen (D-Nevada) is up for re-election next year. Here are three things to know about her race:
- Nevada had the nation’s closest Senate election in 2022.
- A recent poll showed Jacky Rosen two points down.
- Mitch McConnell’s handpicked candidate — an anti-abortion rights extremist — just launched his campaign against her.
This is a powerfully important moment to show that we’re in this fight alongside Jacky Rosen. Can you split a donation of $20 — or whatever makes sense for you — between Jacky Rosen and our re-election campaign right now?
Look: if Democrats lose this race, it’s going to be really, really tough to hold onto our Senate majority. And the GOP came within 10,000 votes — less than one percentage point — of winning Nevada’s Senate election last year.
We must protect our Democratic majority, and we’ve got to keep Jacky Rosen in the Senate, where she fights from the heart for working families.
When I first met her, I knew she was a fighter. She hasn’t had anything handed to her. She worked as a cocktail waitress to help put herself through college, and when she started as a computer programmer, she worked as a banquet waitress on the side to pay the bills.
Now she’s a force to be reckoned with in Washington — fighting for affordable health care, protections for Nevada’s beautiful natural environment (a place Bruce and I love to go hiking), and the right to an abortion. Just one recent example: We teamed up and called on the Department of Veterans Affairs to start offering abortion care — and then they began offering abortion services.
Let’s keep Jacky Rosen in the fight. Let’s win this battleground race. And let’s keep Republicans far, far, far away from a Senate majority, which they could use to ban abortion nationwide, slash Social Security and Medicare, and hand more tax breaks to billionaires and billionaire corporations.
If you can, please split a contribution between Jacky Rosen and me today. Any amount makes a real difference.
Thanks for being a part of this,
Elizabeth
