Friend, my friend Bob Casey isn't like most politicians. He has an understated style and works to make headway, not headlines. In fact, some pundits have even compared his restrained, low-profile style to oatmeal: boring, bland even.

Now, I don't think Bob is as boring as oatmeal, but one thing about this assessment is absolutely true: He's there to get the job done for Pennsylvania families, not to score a huge headline.

You see, both Bob and I are workhorses, not show horses. It might not make us the most headline-grabbing guys out there, but it's a winning strategy. Both of us have taken on the GOP’s biggest megadonors and been the brunt of their most ridiculous attack ads. And every time, these two workhorses have won.

With families worried about paying the bills, accessing affordable health care and retiring with security, the GOP's theatrics just aren't what voters want. That's why I know that Bob Casey has what it takes to beat the odds and win reelection this fall. But to get the job done, we need grassroots supporters like you to stand with us. Please, will you split a donation between Bob and I before midnight tonight to help us hit our end-of-month goals and defend our Senate majority? This is a neck-and-neck race, and Bob can only win if people like you stand with him.

Last year's election in Pennsylvania secured our narrow Senate majority. But that race was a dead heat up until the very end – and you can bet that things will be just as close this time around.

We know that Republicans are heavily targeting Pennsylvania. And if they flip just one seat red, they could retake control of the Senate. As chair of the DSCC, I'm going to do everything that I can to stop that from happening. I know that Bob and the rest of our Democratic majority are standing behind me in this fight. But we can't take on the GOP's far-right megadonors without the support of grassroots people like you.

Please, friend, I'm personally asking: Will you chip in $5 or whatever you can spare between Bob and me before midnight tonight to help?

I'm so grateful for your support,

Sen. Gary Peters
DSCC Chair
