Friend —

I'm reaching out today to ask you to make a contribution to my re-election campaign for U.S. Senate in Minnesota. Anything you can contribute today is super important. Here's why:

More and more people are tuning into our race for the very first time and learning more about our odds in this election. So, it's imperative we reach them with our message and bring them on board.

But what does that mean exactly? It means keeping me on the campaign trail as much as possible to talk with Minnesotans from every corner of our state — listening and learning about the issues that matter most to their communities.

It means building a grassroots organization that can withstand the flood of special interest cash from Donald Trump and Mitch McConnell's network of super PACs and wealthy donors.

It means reaching folks with TV and digital ads to make sure everyone, no matter which part of the state they live in, has the opportunity to hear our message.

Now look, everything I just said takes a heck of a lot of resources to turn into reality. And with the obscene amount of money the other side is raising, we can't afford to sit on our hands — not for a second.

So, I'm asking: Can you add a donation of $10 or whatever is meaningful to you to my re-election campaign today? Our end-of-month deadline is less than a week away and we need to start shifting into high gear.

If you've saved payment information with ActBlue Express, your donation will go through immediately:

Thanks for everything.
