Hi john, I’m Colin Allred and I’m running against Ted Cruz in Texas.

I was just having my coffee when my finance director sent me our latest fundraising numbers.

I'm not going to lie – July has been really tough for fundraising.

And here's the thing: Ted Cruz's GOP mega donors are more laser-focused on this race than ever. They're pouring millions into his war chest to make sure Ted continues to protect their interests in the Senate.

Unlike Ted Cruz, I'm running in this race to protect the interests of ALL Texans, not special interest groups. I’m running to defend our fundamental right to vote, improve affordable health care, and build a Texas we can be proud of.

And if folks like you help power this campaign all the way through Election Day, I know we'll have what it takes to stand up to Cruz and his allies.

So, listen, I need to raise $55,000 today to stay on track. Please: Can you give just $10 now to me and Tina Smith to make sure we can retire Ted Cruz for good? Every dollar you give brings us closer to giving Texans a senator that speaks for us in the Senate – not shady mega donors →

If you've saved your payment information with ActBlue Express, your split donation to Colin Allred and Tina Smith will go through immediately:

SPLIT $10 NOW SPLIT $25 NOW

SPLIT $50 NOW SPLIT $100 NOW

SPLIT $250 NOW SPLIT ANOTHER AMOUNT

Thank you for being a part of this movement. Let's do this,

Colin Allred
