[ [link removed] ]Welch for Vermont

Friend — 

My name is Elissa Slotkin, and I am running for the United States Senate
in Michigan.

I’m going to lay out more on why I’m running, but if you’re ready to join
our campaign to win this open seat in Michigan and protect the Senate
majority to our campaign right away you can use this link: [link removed]

Service is how I’ve spent my life: I spent my career protecting our
homeland. After 9/11, I was recruited into the CIA and served three tours
in Iraq alongside the U.S. military. I went on to serve under Presidents
of both parties in the White House, and then at the Pentagon. 

But what motivated me to first run for elected office was my mom. She was
diagnosed with stage IV ovarian cancer in 2009 – and she didn’t have
health insurance. She had let it lapse after the insurance companies had
gouged her for years because she happened to have a pre-existing
condition. She passed away in 2011, but that experience – of desperately
trying to get her care and then in the same moment we were filling out
bankruptcy paperwork, forever changed me.

These experiences have shaped my time, my priorities, my approach to my
four years in the U.S. House, and continue to serve as my motivation to
run for Senate. 

My experience in public service impacts how I’ve run my campaigns. Before
my first run in 2018, I made a decision to not accept any donations from
corporate PACs, because I never wanted my constituents to question why I
vote the way I do. 

My campaign for the U.S. Senate will also refuse money from corporate
PACs. Not a dime. 

Some people might see it as a disadvantage, especially since Senate
campaigns are notoriously expensive.  But I know that we can win when
we’re powered by real people, contributing what they can, when they can.

To be upfront: Winning this race is going to take a lot of resources. When
you’re running to win a seat in a swing state like Michigan, you can’t
take anything for granted. That’s why I’m hoping you’ll be moved to
support this campaign today.

I would be honored if you would join me and Peter today by splitting a
contribution of $10 today. Every dollar really does add up.

If you’ve saved payment info with ActBlue Express, your donation will
process automatically and be split between Peter Welch and Elissa Slotkin:

 

[ [link removed] ]$3 [ [link removed] ]$15

[ [link removed] ]$28 [ [link removed] ]$50

[ [link removed] ]$100 [ [link removed] ]OTHER

 

Thank you in advance for chipping in.

Onward!

Elissa
