Do you have a moment, friend?

I know that you’ve probably received your fair share of fundraising emails these past few weeks. And I imagine you might be wondering why I'm asking you to chip in right now, with the election so many months away. I hope you'll give me a chance to explain why your gift today is so important.

(If you already know the stakes and are ready to chip in now, here's a personalized donation link: https://secure.actblue.com/donate/gp_email/[email protected])

The reality is that Mitch McConnell may only need to flip ONE seat to retake the Senate. And, as Chair of the DSCC, I can tell you firsthand that stopping him from doing just that won't be easy.

Democrats are defending more than two times as many seats as Republicans are. With attacks already coming in against key candidates, we need to make sure we have the resources to defend every seat. And a single goal – like our mid-month deadline tonight – could be the difference between a Democratic Senate and a Republican one.

You see, the GOP has a long list of megadonors that they can call on to bankroll their campaigns. But we're relying on support from grassroots folks like you. And building that scale of grassroots resources takes time. If we want to be competitive with GOP spending we have to start that work RIGHT NOW.

The stakes here are too high to wait and see what happens – reproductive rights, our economy, Social Security, it's all on the line. That's why I'm personally asking you to chip in $5 or more right now to help us hit our mid-month goal before tonight's urgent midnight deadline.

Thanks so much for having my back,
