Friend –

I’ll keep this quick.

I’m the most vulnerable Senator running for reelection in the country. And I’ll be honest—we’re not where we want to be ahead of our August mid-month fundraising deadline today.

National Republicans may have special interests and wealthy donors on their side, but this is a grassroots team, and I’ve got people like you.

That’s why I’m asking if you can split just $5 between my campaign and Ben Ray Luján to help us win this ultra-competitive race—because the number of donors we have is just as important as the total amount of money we raise. Can you chip in today?

Thanks for everything you do.
