John, it's Stefanie, Kirsten's Finance Director. I'm on my way to a meeting, but I just had to reach out. July is already 60% over, but we're only 40% of the way to our monthly goal. After reviewing these numbers, I've made the tough choice to set a 24-hour $15,000 fundraising goal. 

I know that we already ask a lot of this team, but if we don't get back on track immediately, we simply won't be able to make up the gap. Please, will you rush a donation before midnight to help us hit this goal and defend Kirsten's must-win seat? Here's a personal donation link that I made for you: https://secure.actblue.com/contribute/page/gfs_fr_defend-senate-2023

I'll be honest, Quarter 3 is always tough for fundraising — we call it the summer slump. And trust me — I get it. Who wants to think about our Senate majority at the beach or read an email about fundraising numbers during a family BBQ? But here's the thing, John: The GOP isn't taking a single day off. And they have the deep pockets of their corrupt megadonors at their disposal. 

With Democrats on defense in 23 states, they know that 2024 is their best chance to retake the Senate. And Republicans in New York are already targeting Kirsten's seat for defeat.

I've seen firsthand just how hard Kirsten works. Between late nights on the Senate floor, long hours reading memos and policy briefings, and an endless list of events all across our state, days off are pretty rare, even in the summer. But I know that she wouldn't have it any other way. Kirsten is laser-focused on defending our Senate majority and delivering results for American families like yours — and she'll work 24/7 to get it done.

Kirsten will always have our backs. But tonight, we need to have hers. Please, will you make a donation before midnight to help us hit this emergency $15,000 goal and make sure that we send Kirsten back to the Senate next fall? Here's that donation link again: https://secure.actblue.com/contribute/page/gfs_fr_defend-senate-2023

Thank you so much,

Stefanie
